Saw this thread on Serebii, figured we could have it here. Bascially, just post explaining what your least favorite Poke-ship is, and why.
As for my own answer, Ima post what I put on Serebii XP [coz I'm too lazy to retype out another explanation >.>]
There is only one shipping/pairing that I truly do not like, and that would be Penguinshipping. I have different reasons for this, but one of the main ones is simply that the concept of it, generally speaking, is so godforsakenly cliché that there are no words to express how much so. I get it. People tend to like the idea of two childhood friends growing up and falling for each other, HOWEVER, that is simply not the way that real life works, and even if it was, I resort back to my initial use of the adjective cliché.
Then there's Kenny himself. He's not a great character, really.... He's whiny, is jealous of Ash getting to travel with Dawn, and then whimpy and insecure when it comes to his faults, wanting to keep them from her. I get it. He digs her, and is too shy to say. But....he doesn't express it in a cute or an attractive way. He just comes across and whiny about the whole situation, which is, of course, annoying. Either tell her, or don't Kenny. But stopping hating on Ash because he's her friend, too. -_-
In conclusion, I think that i can best sum up my point as this: best friends don't always fall in love with each other.

-.O Hate...a ship? ...I don't HATE a ship. I dislike, and I dont really dislike any pokemon shippings, the closest that I dislike is HarleyxMay (the name escapes me at the moment), I mean, seriously, its strange and weird and just fruity. =P

^It's CookieShipping, and I agree with you. Hate is too strong a word. I like despise for this situation. And I utterly despise Poke and ContestShipping. Also, for some reason, I'm not getting into yaoi so easily... Maybe because stuff like that is either a) not cute, or b) scarily crack (a la ComaShipping... BRRR...)

I don't like yaoi or yuri at all. Just can't get into it. Maybe it's because I myself am resolutely heterosexual, and I'm of the mind that yuri means fewer women for me. >.>
I don't hate Pokeshipping, and I will tell you that straight up. This was the ship I started with in shipping. I just no longer prefer it. Believe me, there are some MASTERFUL pokeshipping fics out there. A Bedside Vigil, in my fic favorites, is one of the best fics written on FF.net, and I can say that with all confidence.
Quite tolerant of Pearlshipping because it definitely works on paper.
Hmm. Most other pairings I'm quite neutral. While I prefer NaruHina in Naruto, I definitely have no complaints about NaruSaku. I don't browse the fanfictions often, because there are simply too many. (160k+!? Holy shoe.))
The only odd pairing I'm fond of is in Bleach, that being Ichigo/Yuroichi. Why? Think about it. Not too hard to figure out why. >.>
Also, Lina/Gourry, Zelgadis/Amelia ftw.

Uuuh I came here to say sorry about the double post.My bad.
Yeah NaruSaku is great. I like NaruIina somewhat because I don't like shy girls that much, but I wont care who he chooses as long as he is happy.
Naarghul this Pokeshipping story sounds interesting. Can you post the link to it?

"We shall see" I bellowed, with my sexy deep voice.
On to the world of FF!
NAARGHUL!!...... why..... why did you have me read such a sad one-shot (sobs) when Ash was in a coma... my sensitive side came out (blows into tissue)
Well yes this was incredibe, 51 reviews for ONE chapter is amazing for Pokemon, but I cannot say that this is one of the best on FF, I've seen Naruto One-Shots way better than this, but still I can say confidently that this is the best Poke One-Shot I read. Ever.

Harley hasn't debuted here in the Phillipines yet, but from the sound of things, I don't think I'm going to like him as a character either.
As for my least favorite ship, I'd choose Ikarishipping. Dawn seems like an okay person, but Shinji doesn't seem to even be interested in her. Plus, I think she's too good for him anyway...
