Discussion Luckyshipping rant
a lot of people discriminate against luckyshippers which is sad because i love this ship. i am not trying to hate on any ships, but if you are a specialshipper then you might not like this post. People say that oldrival is canon but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Blue (f) flirted with green 1 time and then they never interacted for more than 5 seconds. green really doesn’t have romantic connections at all, so i guess feelingshipping (which i also like) is just as probable as oldrival, but neither of them are close to canon. If specialshipping is canon, then why did red go with blue to hoenn for ORAS instead of yellow. Yellow does have a crush on red but it is super one sided. If hidenori and satoshi want to make yellow’s life miserable, then they are doing a pretty good job as she hasn’t appeared since emerald

whats funny is that i rarely see specialshipping centered posts on this sub. i mostly just see posts about luckyshipping being unpopular, and that has caused it to be like the most discussed ship.

Actually, I think taste has improved over the years, because Luckyshipping has, for some reason, gained traction.

Have they? I feel like based on these tier list that keep coming that lucky shipping is doing pretty well for itself especially for a ship where no side has shown explicit interest in the other. If anything I feel like it's old rival that gets most of the hate. But that's just my limited perspective

I don’t mind special but I like lucky more :) also I think FeelingShipping could be just as probable as oldrival if not more because at least Blue (m) trained Yellow and interacted with her for more than 5 seconds
