'''SpecialShipping''' (Japanese: '''レイエ''' ''ReIe'') is the belief that {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Yellow}} belong in a [[Shipping|romantic relationship]]. This pairing is one of the more popular ships; however, some consider it to be a one-sided [[canon]] on Yellow's part, since Red doesn't seem to return the feelings or even recognize them. Its rivals include [[LuckyShipping]] and [[MangaPokéShipping]].

==Name origin==
The name is derived from the Japanese name of [[Pokémon Adventures]]: ''Pokémon Special''. This could be a reference to the fact that Red was the first protagonist introduced in the manga, and Yellow is the first (and thus far, only) female [[Pokédex holder]] in the manga not [[Cross-canon counterparts|directly based]] on a game character.
==Alternate names==
*CallabaroShipping - An unofficial, rarely used term.
*ReIe - The original (Japanese) term for the ship, using the standard Japanese naming method of combining the first 2 characters from each characters name, starting with the dominant character.
