Shipping in the Pokémon fandom began in the late 90s, with Pokémon forums hosting their own shipping sections for fans to discuss their favorite ships. Two of the most popular ships at the time were ''PokéShipping''; the pairing of {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}}, and ''RocketShipping''; the pairing of {{an|Jessie}} and {{an|James}}.

Many fans seemingly condemn the idea of shipping, particularly the more offensive shippings. As such, the concept of shipping characters has mostly been abandoned. | |||
