'''FireShipping''' is the belief | '''FireShipping''' is the belief that {{Ash}} and [[Macy]] belong in a romantic relationship. The term comes from Macy's adoration of {{type|Fire}}s, along with the common association with fire as a representation of passion, which both him and her embrace wholeheartedly. This Ship is considered one-sided canon on Macy's side. | ||
This Ship was used as a minor subplot in the [[Silver Conference]] arc in the {{pkmn|anime}}. One of Ash's early ventures involving girls who develop a crush on him that the audience is directly privy to, Macy is one of the characters that sets up the stage for future unrequited Ships involving Ash, as the girls involved are technically one-off characters. This Ship is not cited often as the other one-sided Ships are, nor does it appear grossly popular, as it debuted within the series itself (as opposed to the {{pkmn|movie}}s) while Misty was still apart of {{ashfr|the group}}, and likely conflicted directly with the still-ragingly popular {{s|Poké}}, whereas fans earlier could pretend the movies never happened within the anime's | This Ship was used as a minor subplot in the [[Silver Conference]] arc in the {{pkmn|anime}}.

: [[Misty]] recognizes where Macy is going with this, and cuts in, her jealousy acting up. Macy, in response, starts slamming {{type|Water}}s, finishing up by asking if Misty was Ash's girlfriend. Misty, not at all willing to reveal any {{s|Poké|feelings}} for Ash, claims to be his coach, and Macy sees her opening, telling her to keep out of his "personal life." She continues, telling Misty that Macy and Ash needed to talk about their future together. The chance never comes up, however, because Ash has already begun to run off, claiming he has to get ready for his upcoming battle. Whether or not he knows what he's running from—"getting ready" just an excuse to escape or his honest desire to start training immediately—is unknown. But Macy isn't distressed at his departure, waving goodbye to him and shouting to him that if she wins their match, he has to treat her to a date. | : [[Misty]] recognizes where Macy is going with this, and cuts in, her jealousy acting up.

: During their division battle, Macy is as determined as she indirectly promises to be; she's focused enough that she doesn't remark flirtatiously at all. It's only afterward when Ash has won that she makes a comment that causes Misty to become alarmed, citing Ash to be the "man [she] thought he'd be." Later that evening, during sunset, Macy tracks Ash down to show him her new {{p|Magcargo}}, claiming it evolved from the result of their battle and that it'll always remind her of "what [they] shared together." No one getting a word in otherwise, Macy exclaims that their supposed date will need a rain check so she can get ready for her next match against Jackson. As she runs off, she calls him 'sweetie'. Ash, however, only blinks after her in confusion, until he realizes she's as passionate about battling as he is and says she needs to look out for him too. | : During their division battle, Macy is as determined as she indirectly promises to be; she's focused enough that she doesn't remark flirtatiously at all.
