[@hiddenflare6169]

And now, a Pokémon characters react comment: Ash: “Sigh it’s pokeshipping again.” All his companions: “UGH!” Misty: “Can’t they ship you with someone else?! I’d welcome you and a Jynx already.” Ash: “Go cuddle with a Muk!” Brock: “These argument only add fuel to the fire you two!” May: “It’s not the pair, it’s the stories! It’s so boring. Besides the idea of you two having 20 children, there’s nothing interesting there.” Max: “How’s that interesting exactly?” May: “You’ll find out when you’re older!” Dawn: “Why does she sound like such a sap too? I can’t see Misty being the type to say things like this.” Iris: “Yeah she’s too full of herself! I get they aren’t children here, but then that means their characters are questionably linked to each other.” Clian: “Yeah now we gotta assume Misty changed character, may be though her own Character Development, though times past!” Serena: “I’m not even sure the author thought that far. You think they’ll think of other possible candidates for not only Ash, but Misty as well? Will we know why they chose each other?” Bonnie: “I guess not. They just wanted to get to the married part without thinking about it.” Clemont: “Hmm you think Ash and Misty will have time to tend to 20 children? It’s tough with 1 or two kids, but 20?!” Lillie: “Oh those poor kids, they’ll have to compete hard for their parent’s attention! Ash and Misty should be ashamed of not considering the children’s feelings on the matter!” Lana: “I’m sure it’s possible to make sure kids are well taken care of and loved, just look at Brock’s family. Still so many kids with few parents isn’t a good idea, trust me!” Mallow: “They would need a lot of help on it. Ugh. Anyone know why they mention ‘canon’ in the story?” Sophocles: “Now that makes things even more weird? Why would she be worried about that?” Kiawe: “Ugh that is weird! It does bring it up the idea that this isn’t Misty, but seeing where the story is going it isn’t hard to imagine their plan.” Goh: “And you’re telling me they have made these same stories for over 25 years!” Chole: “I figured. There’s just too much to tackle that no one should use their time reading it all!”

Funny how you never specified who the Mother is.

[@Snowstorm174]

and that is why I filter out the shipfics if I’m feeling like reading pokeani fanfics. I’m sure there’s some good ones but there’s too much garbage to sift through for me to bother. also it’s just kinda weird that people ship Ash, he’s baby. platonic fics are typically more fun anyway bc they focus more on the friendships, the teamwork with the pokemon, and the battles and world-saving shenanigans, rather than just one romantic pairing. kukui/burnet gets a pass bc it’s canon and also tends to lean found family vibes, alola is good for that
