So, tumblr randomly decided to turn this into a text post while deleting the message. The original message was from an anon who wrote:
whats your favorite pokemon ship from the games and do you ship sonia x leon?
I'm not a huge shipper these days. Most of my OTPs across my various fandoms are ones that I've shipped for years. I guess it just takes me longer to develop an attachment to both the characters and their relationship (or the idea of their relationship) before I can think of myself as shipping them. Until then, I'm mostly like 'yeah, they're cute.' That being said, I do have some ships in the gameverse:
Kris/Red is my favorite. They just compliment each other really well based on my headcanons and how I imagine their personalities. They're the power couple of the pokemon world, but they spend most of their time out in the wilderness - and not always together lol.
I also like Kris/Silver - but only in specific terms. I am so tired of the Woman Saves Damaged Man Through Love trope. And I love Kris too much to put her in that role and have her reduced to being a prize for Silver for acting like a decent human being. Plus, Silver is my favorite rival, and his character devlopment is among the best in the franchise. So I think it's also a disservice to him to have his redemption revolve around such a lame narrative. Throughout most of Crystal, I imagine Kris genuinely disliking him, and their eventual friendship is a slowly developed one. So, I picture a romantic relationship forming years later, when they're close friends and Silver is in a much healthier state of mind. I'm a sucker for slow burning ships based on mutual trust and respect, and that can really work for redemptionshipping.
Aaannd that's pretty much all I actively ship when it comes to the games. Moon/Lillie is cute. I really like the relationship they had, but I'm fine with it remaining platonic. As for Sonia/Leon, I don't have any feelings about it either way. It's fine. I like both characters, but if I was going to ship Leon with anyone, it would probably be Raihan because they seem to have more of a bond and common interests.
