'''PalletShipping''' (Japanese: '''シゲサト''' Shigesato or '''サトシゲ''' Satoshige) is one of the various names given to the {{Ash}}/{{Gary}} coupling supported by many fans of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It can also refer to the [[Pokémon Special|manga]] characters {{Special|Red}} and {{Special|Green}} (and by extension their [[game]] counterparts {{ga|Red}} and {{ga|Blue}}) but this would instead be called '''グリレ''' ''Gurire'' or '''レグリ''' ''Reguri'' in Japanese. This ship is more popular in Japan, very possibly because the original version contains a larger amount of hints, which, as PalletShippers point out, are edited or less suggestive in the dub.

: In this episode Ash runs into Gary and his Electivire. Gary greets him by calling him that famous pet-name, "Ashy-boy," and Ash asks for a battle. Gary agrees, but says that Electivire is too tired from battling Team Rocket at the moment, and that they can battle later at Professor Oak's lab. They do indeed battle and Gary wins, telling Ash that even though he won the Battle Frontier, there are many trainers and Pokémon that he doesn't know about in Sinnoh, and that the world is a big place. He then says goodbye, saying he's heading back to Sinnoh. Ash takes Gary's word into deep consideration and makes the decision to follow Gary to Sinnoh, basing yet another traveling decision on something about Gary. Ash leaves for Sinnoh the very next day and meets up with him [[DP045|45 episodes later]]. Many PalletShippers believe that Ash's decision is based on his possible love/interest in Gary.

===In the video games===
Most PalletShippers agree that there is little to no evidence for the ship in the video game series. However, the rival makes an interesting comment to the main character on the [[S.S. Anne]] regarding catching [[Pokémon]] -- "New types are everywhere. Search around in grassy areas!" This line is a classic example of dodge.
