#actually dena u should do that

[sexysilverstrider]

thinking right now and the switch pokemon games really gave me great pokemon ship dynamics

hop/gloria - childhood friends but best friend snatches the other's dreams and bff cant bring to blame her coz hes his bestie and he has his own issues and weakness to blame

bede/gloria - bratty rival gets beaten and has his life hit him in the face by protag is always a win for me

raihan/gloria - ill always love the 'i see you as a lil sister i never had :) *proceeds to accidentally falls for the said rhetorical sister figure* type lol its cute. kousuke toriumis characters are just like that

leon/sonia - childhood friends too!!! but this time theyre the reverse of hpyu

trace/elaine - childhood friends but the less angstier version compared to gurileaf/gurired

arven/juliana - arven being CANONICALLY jealous n clingy at everyone who is close to juliana is just top tier for me. that is a big big puppy dog craving for love and attention

kieran/juliana - i would like to thank pokemon for giving me a whiplash of a character LMAOOOO a rival who becomes bastardized by protags actions??????? kieran heavily implying that he likes juliana too before juliana accidenatlly ruins his life????? oh im EATING

volo/akari - enemies to lovers but this time it breached containment and actually reached fame because the amount of fanarts/fanfics ive seen of this otp is fascinating. in a span of a year pixiv managed to have 100+ arts of them. maybe even more. i mean what do you expect? yandere? angst? drama? pining??? hosoyan and hondo kaede??? in MY pokemon game?
