| The Shipping section of Bulbapedia underwent a large overhaul as discussed by the Editorial Board, primarily due to the largely speculative nature of the entire section. For future, content regarding Shipping we are encouraging people to head to the [https://forums.bulbagarden.net/index.php?forums/shippers-paradise.300/ Shippers' Paradise] subforum to discuss and share with others.

I think that we should probably add [[WishfulShipping]] to the major ships list. It seems to be an even about of shippers for Negai and Wishful so if Negai is there Wishfulshipping should be there as well. - [[User:Alexa9966]]

:Not really. Any romantic gestures will be either universal or Japanese in origin. And for the most part, the hints themselves are subjective between friendship and romantic.

:Those ships do exist. ContuckyFriedShipping and AllgrownupShipping (with Togetic), respectively. The thing is no one had made articles about them. But the reason is probably because they lack evidence. Misty and Togetic is more of a mother-child relationship while May and Blaziken don't have as much interaction as the ones you mentioned before.

== New rule ==
 
There are too many shippings with 1 or 2 hints. There should be a rule that if you can't think of ''at least'' 5 hints, the shipping isn't notable. [[User:Spyspotter|&#123;&#123;SUBST:u&#124;Spyspotter&#125;&#125;]] ([[User talk:Spyspotter|talk]]) 13:19, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
:Shippings, except for the truly notable ones in the history of the franchise and the community, are not notable '''by definition'''. And even those can be summarized and explained in the main article about the subject. Anything else should be deleted ASAP.

== MD Ships and Pokemon Ships ==
 
I was wondering if we should make articles or at least mention ships that are from the MD game (Virsion and Emogla) and anime ship that use only Pokemon not People. --[[User:AbsolX|AbsolX]] ([[User talk:AbsolX|talk]]) 19:14, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
 
== Originalshipping ==
 
I am confused why OriginalShipping (RedxGreen) isn't at the 'popular shipping list' because if you google it, it has 11 Million results. And it is by far the most known and popular shipping. So, is it because it's a gay shipping ? that's somehow really discriminating. And if you google Agency shipping as example you won't even get a million results..so.. this seems more homophobic and non fact based [[User:Orange ryo|Orange ryo]] ([[User talk:Orange ryo|talk]]) 19:31, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
:FWIW, your "11 million" search results almost certainly include more pages like [http://community.ebay.ca/t5/PayPal-Payments/do-i-supposed-to-refund-for-original-shipping-cost/qaq-p/108629 this] than like [http://archiveofourown.org/tags/OriginalShipping this]. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 21:00, 9 February 2015 (UTC)
Nah, but it's unarguably one of the biggest shippings in the fandom, if you have ever been at tumblr or stuff like this you would know, so it has to be up there [http://originalshippingislove.tumblr.com/][http://fyeahoriginalshipping.tumblr.com/][http://green-x-red-ftw.tumblr.com/rec-list] . And these are only 3 of the many blogs you can find about this pairing. [[User:Orange ryo|Orange ryo]] ([[User talk:Orange ryo|talk]]) 15:17, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
::Note that it says "some of the popular ships" not "all", just because it's not mentioned on this particular list, doesn't mean that it's not a popular ship. We also have homosexual ships on the list and even whole pages focusing on them, so saying that we're being homophobic is rather unfounded.

== "AlohaShipping" Who Earned It ==
 
Why is it that 'AlohaShipping' is Ash and Mallow? I heard three ship names on a couple of instances for the three pairs.
 
Ash&Mallow (Foodshipping)
Ash&Lillie (Alolashipping)
Ash&Lana (Aquashipping)

== Shipping for Pikachu and Togedemaru ==
 
Any names that anyone can think of for this shipping or even if it should be displayed? [[User:Chansey113|Chansey113]] ([[User talk:Chansey113|talk]]) 00:33, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
 
== Correction of a Pairing Name ==
 
The name for Ash & Mallow is AlohaShipping, not AlolaShipping. The name was determined in the polls on Serebii, and has since been accepted by the official list. It's likely just a typo, but the specific area requests that I discuss any changes before making them. Do I have permission to correct the name? [[User:Manqoba|Manqoba]] ([[User talk:Manqoba|talk]]) 00:29, 8 June 2017 (UTC)
 
== Jellowshipping ==
Should we add Jellowshipping to the total list of ships? It's popular on sites like Twitter and Wattpad, but I don't think there's a page for it. {{unsigned|Ughlifeissoboring}}
:I don't think any more ship pages should be made unless the ship has had a profound impact on the community. Just being popular isn't enough.
