Ash and Serena are often a pair that people compare Goh and Chloe to, but perhaps the greatest parallel of them all is how endlessly positive Ash and Goh are towards Serena and Chloe, respectively.

Ash: “Serena is strong, amazing, and talented.”

Goh: “Chloe is strong, amazing, and talented.”

Or in other words: “She’s everything. I’m just Ken” - Ash and Goh

[incorrect-poketagonist-quotes]

Goh: I think I just figured something out. I got to go. Chloe: Aren't you forgetting something? Goh: Uuh...*hesitantly kisses Chloe's forehead before running out.* Chloe: No, pay your bill! Damn, who raised you?

Shoutout to the excerpt from this fic that invoked such a strong image in my head that I had to draw it

Something I noticed

[plusultragamer]

Okay class, it's time for a lesson in media literacy.

This is Ash Ketchum, the main protagonist of the anime series from the Original Series up to Pokémon Journeys.

This is Serena, the female lead of the XY series who for some reason was hailed as the Legendary Heroine.

The ship between these two is known as AmourShipping, and they are shipped together because... Serena has a canonical crush on Ash? And has met him at least once in their childhood? I'm pretty sure the latter is how it got popular even before the XY series aired its first episode. Moving right along...

...we have Goh, the second protagonist of Pokémon Journeys.

And finally, this is Chloe Cerise, a character who honestly should've been the third main character of Pokémon Journeys but for some reason she wasn't considered important enough to be treated like one.

The ship between these two is commonly known as VermilionShipping, however from what I remember hearing, that name was suggested by a racist. Plus, that name is already taken by... Blue Oak x Lt. Surge?! So instead, I will refer to this ship as BloomMewShipping (an alternate name suggested by Shadechu Νightray from Twitter).

Now I personally have no issue with anyone who ship either pairing; whatever floats your boat as they say. The problem is that some people take their ship too far. An example of this is clinging to fan theories that have long since been debunked. Allow me to explain what i mean.

These two are Liko's parents, Alex and Lucca. Note how the former looks nothing like Ash and the latter looks absolutely nothing like Serena.

These two with little Roy is his parents. Their names are unconfirmed but do they look anything like Goh and Chloe?

No they don't. They don't even have the same eye color!

For context, before Pokémon Horizons aired, people were theorizing that Liko and Roy were the offspring of Ash and Serena (or Dawn, but mostly Serena) and Goh and Chloe respectively. However that theory started to crumble the moment Alex made his debut 9 episodes into the series before collapsing completely when Lucca made her physical debut 3 episodes later.

But even before then, the fact that Diana (who was first seen in Liko's dream in episode 3) looked nothing like Grace should've been the first sign that the theory in question was incorrect. And spoiler alert: Liko's ancestry was revealed in the newest arc, and not a single ancestor has any connections with anyone from the Ash era!

Despite all of this, as well as the reveal of Roy's parents, some AmourShippers and BloomMewShippers still believe that debunked theory that Liko and Roy are related to these respective ships even to this day! What is it going to take for these foolish shippers to put their shipping biases aside and let go of that dead fan theory?!

What I'm getting at is that enough episodes of Pokémon Horizons have aired to where Liko and Roy's families being completely original characters should be common knowledge. In fact, as of this blog post, this series is so detached from the Ash era that you could even put this into the video game continuity and it would still work (with some tweaks of course)!

Liko and Roy are characters with their own feelings and dreams, NOT tools for shipping propaganda. The sooner more people learn this, the better.

My first SatoGou video in ages is finally out!

[ask-ash-and-goh]

gonna flip the table and ask ash what he thinks of vermilionshipping

so true ash

[incorrect-poketagonist-quotes]

Chloe: Goh, I have a great idea. Goh: Let’s hear it. Chloe: We trick Red and Ethan to go out on a date together. Goh: YES! Goh: And hey, if that doesn’t work out, maybe you and me could go out, get some drinks— Chloe, hitting him with a book: THIS IS NOT ABOUT YOU.

[fairyboy-bede]

Is this a safe place?

Tbh, I don't get Goukoha's popularity.

Not because I like other ships, but the way it's written. It's all tell and no show.

The writers don't make them close even as friends, and the fanon portrays their friendship better.

I'll elaborate this later (hope that annoying twitter Vermilionshipping fan won't find this and rants over me)

Well lord forbids someone has different opinions of them.

[smilingperformer]

Why do some vermilionshipping fans hate satogou? Sorry for

I have seen no such stereotype kind of ship hate myself so I'm the wrong person to ask about that.

As for why I'm not particularily a fan of the dynamic the show has gone for with Satoshi and Gou:

I find it boring.

Sorry I just don't really like the kind of dynamic they're going for with them, and I'm talking about the "Gou is the smart kid"/"Satoshi is the dumb kid" dynamic. I'm just not a fan.

Koharu and Gou's dynamic is more interesting to me in that one is smart in Pokemon related stuff and one is smart in life related stuff, and neither is dumb at anything, just less knowledged. They complement each other's weaknesses in what they don't know as well. Also, I just love childhood friend dynamics.

[senpai-nemona]

I just find out that the alternate names of Vermilionshipping are Ruomashipping and Kawaiishipping.

I don't know what to do with this info.

I'm puzzled

[smilingperformer]

Here are some rare ships I adore in anipoke:

Waterwarriorshipping 💙

GoSpring/Vermilionshipping (yeh it's rare I think)

Gou x Shigeru (need a name decided agsjsj also I still need to witness their real interactions~)

Hanamusashipping (surprisingly adorable and fun shipping).

:D

[fairyboy-bede]

Pokeshipping is dead!!!!!!!!!!!! Amourshipping and Vermilionshipping is canon!!!!!!!!!!!! You delusional!!!!!!!!!!!

Okay bud you convinced me🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💔🥱💀💀💀💀💀💀🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

(When did I talk about pokeshipping in first place lmao)

[fairyboy-bede]

what do you think of Chloe/Koharu?

I think she is okay, but she deserves more screentime.

I feel uncomfortable about vermilionshipping / ruomashipping and I 'm afraid people like her more for the ship than her whole character.
