MorpheusShipping: Difference between revisions

This article is about shipping. As hints and evidence for ships are mostly speculation, this page may contain personal points of view.

MorpheusShipping is the belief of a romantic relationship between Ash and Angie. This shipping is one-sided canon on Angie's part, since she developed a crush on Ash at the end of the Pokémon Summer Academy arc; meanwhile, Ash remains oblivious of her feelings. The name Morpheus comes from Morpheus, the Greek god of dreams, to represent their mutual feelings for their lessons (by sleeping through them).

Hints

Angie's hints

• She copied Ash's training strategy with her rented Monferno.
• Angie is one of the few people to pose with Ash in his "I got a [insert item/badge/Pokémon]!" tradition.
• Angie seems embarrassed and blushing a lot looking at Ash sometimes in One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!, showing she was really touched by his gestures.
• In the same episode she looked sad when Ash said that he saved her because they are friends, showing she probably expected a "more than a friend" answer.
• Angie retains these feelings and blushes when Ash compliments her in If the Scarf Fits, Wear It.

Ash's hints

• Ash risked his life to save Angie from the ghost girl in Ghoul Daze!. Angie even told him at one point to save himself, but he refused and even said he'd never drop her.
• Ash saved her again from falling down a cliff in One Team, Two Team, Red Team, Blue Team!.
• Ash was looking forward to meeting Angie again in If the Scarf Fits, Wear It.
• Ash defended Angie's actions to her parents in the same episode.

General hints

• They developed a fierce rivalry, but ended it on a note of friendship.
• Angie and Ash have exchanged high-fives and fist bumps, something Ash has rarely done with anyone.
• When split into teams, Ash and Angie always partner up. They also get into a lot of trouble together. Even when not partners, they tend to spend time together.
• Angie's Shinx and Pikachu get along well.
• Both share many personality traits, such as a love of food and excellent battling skills.
• In some scenes, the two can be seen staring at each other, most notably the closing frame of Camping It Up!.
• In If the Scarf Fits, Wear It, Angie's parents knew about Ash as the boy which their daughter talked about many times. They even teased her and suggested that she can marry Ash and they could take care of the Daycare center in the future.

Notable MorpheusShippers
