***LAST UPDATED: 15 JUNE 2022***
As of the date above, there are over 193K stories tagged as #harrypotter on Wattpad, and I found over 450 ships during my search!
In order to find the necessary data for this book, I sifted through works by using a combination of the tag #harrypotter and the ship name tag. I realize that this strategy leaves something to be desired, since not every work in the fandom is tagged with #harrypotter, but it tends to be more accurate than not including the fandom tag. This is because a handful of HP ship names overlap with other fandoms (e.g. #rarry #frarry etc. overlap with the 1D fandom, and other ship names overlap with various fandoms for anime, books, celebs, YouTubers, etc.), and Wattpad doesn't have a good way to mark fandom unlike AO3 and FFN (except by using the tag #harrypotter, in this case). That means that my data here is based solely on a combination of #harrypotter and each ship name tag, and not the ship name tag by itself, as other people may use.
Without further ado, the top 10 HP ships on Wattpad are:*
#1 — #drarry (13.5K)
#2 — #dramione (8.2K)
#3 — #wolfstar (5.5K)
#4 — #jily (3.4K)
#5 — #hinny (3.3K)
#6 — #romione (2.7K)
#7 — #harmione (1.1K)
#8 — #linny & #pansmione (1.0K)
#9 — #tomarry (937)
#10 — #scorbus (659)
BONUS! Other popular ships include:*
#11 — #scorose (593)
#12 — #nuna (541)
#13 — #snarry (535)
#14 — #blinny (532)
#15 — #deamus (503)
#16 — #fremione (449)
#17 — #jegulus (441)
#18 — #blairon (434)
#19 — #snily (321)
#20 — #snamione (317)
*(excluding Character/OC ships (e.g. Draco/OC), Fantastic Beasts ships (e.g. Newtina), and object/crack ships (e.g. Drapple))
