'''PalletShipping''' (Japanese: '''シゲサト''' | '''PalletShipping''' (Japanese: '''シゲサト''' ''ShigeSato'' or '''サトシゲ''' ''SatoShige'') is the belief that {{Gary}} and {{Ash}} belong in a romantic relationship. 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 made less suggestive in the dub. | ||

: En route to Cerulean City, Ash and {{ashfr | : En route to Cerulean City, Ash and {{ashfr}} notice a small piece of graffiti Gary left on a sign saying, "Gary was here! Ash is a loser!" Ash then tears off down the road to catch up with his rival. This is an example of Gary's playful teasing of Ash, which many PalletShippers see as evidence of a possible romantic involvement. PalletShippers notice that this is the first of many times Gary goes out of his way to insult Ash, and many wonder what drives him to do this. Ash also becomes very aggravated by this small note, which is proof that Ash takes to heart what Gary says to him. | ||

Gary tells Ash what happened to him, right there in Ash's arms. Later in the same episode, after Gary seems to have recovered a bit, Ash is battling {{TRT}} and Gary seems rather worried about him when he gets shocked; he even spouts some encouraging words to Ash (which is a rare event, considering he is almost always taunting Ash). Gary is also the one who leaps in to tackle {{MTR}}, making sure that Ash gets the badge from the gym. The final bit in this episode is the very end when Gary actually compliments Ash, saying that he is a decent trainer. | ||

: This episode takes place shortly after ''The Battle of The Badge'' when Ash and Gary meet up at Professor Oak's lab. Ash had originally traveled there to speak to Professor Oak about the Indigo Pokémon League. Upon realizing Gary is there, however, Ash completely forgets about asking Oak and instead runs to Gary. Ash then takes him by the shoulders and shakes him while begging for information about the League, which he could have just as easily obtained from the Professor. After a bit of arguing (as is normal in their rivalry up to this point), they stop and finally admit that both of their training techniques are good, and finally end up hanging out, walking around the Professor's ranch like friends and chatting about their Pokémon. In this episode Gary also winks at Ash a few times, and they end up battling Team Rocket together in perfect union, without a second thought. | : This episode takes place shortly after ''The Battle of The Badge'' when Ash and Gary meet up at Professor Oak's lab.

: After a battle with Gary in the episode ''[[EP115|A | : During the episode every time someone mentions [[Professor Ivy]], Brock isolates himself with depression because something happened between them and he had a crush on her. When [[Misty]] mentions Gary, Ash does the same thing. This could lead some fans could think it was for the same reason. | ||
* ''[[EP116|The Rivalry Revival]]'' | |||
: After a battle with Gary in the episode ''[[EP115|A Tent Situation]]'', Gary has left and Misty inquires if Ash would like to know where Gary is going. Ash acts as if he doesn't care (exclaiming "Why should I care!?" defensively) but later goes to Professor Oak's lab and asks him where Gary is heading anyway. Upon finding out that Gary is going to the Johto Region, he apparently chooses to go to Johto himself based on Gary's decision, beginning his trek there in the next episode. | |||

: In this episode, Ash actually beats Gary in a battle during the Silver Conference. {{an|Professor Oak}} and {{Delia}} are watching the battle, and Professor Oak says that even though Gary would never admit it, Ash is his most important friend. Delia replies that Ash is no different in that respect. After the battle, Gary tells Ash to meet him, and ends up giving the latter his half of a Poké Ball (of which they had each carried half throughout their entire journey). The two of them then hold hands. | : In this episode, Ash actually beats Gary in a battle during the Silver Conference. {{an|Professor Oak}} and {{Delia}} are watching the battle, and Professor Oak says that even though Gary would never admit it, Ash is his most important friend.

: | : Ash is feeling rather down about losing a battle when he receives a postcard from Gary. He imagines himself standing and talking with Gary in response to the letter.

: | : Ash runs into Gary and his Electivire. Gary greets him using the infamous famous pet-name "Ashy-boy". The two later battle and Gary wins, telling Ash that even though he beat 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 words into consideration and makes the decision to follow Gary to Sinnoh, basing yet another travel decision on Gary's own. 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. | ||
