Gym Leaders & Elite Four Shipping Discussion

[Usehydropump]

When I deal with shipping, I usually like to pair gym leaders together and Elite Four characters together. In my opinion, I think protagonists and antagonists get a little bit too much attention. But I'm completely okay with that. After all, they are the main characters.

Here's some ships I ship.

Sabrina x Morty (Soulshipping...my OTP)
Falkner x Morty
Volkner x Jasmine
Lucian x Cynthia
Brock x Misty (Don't ask xD)
Elesa x Skyla

And many others!

What are your favorite gym leader or elite four ships?

I like these gym and Elite Four pairings.

Volkner X Elesa
Roark X Roxanne
Elesa X Skyla (definitly top of the list in the Unova Pairings for me)
Winona X Wallace (sort of canon in the manga, but still feels like it's up in the air)
Cilan X Iris

oh well that seems to be it for me for now

[PopPrincess_Lyra]

Hm... I'm going to think the ones in my head...:

Elesa/Skyla
Skyla/Winona
Whitney/Jasmine
Cilan/Iris

I think that's it :3 nya~

Wow these are really cute ^-^ I've been seeing a lot of CilanxIris lately. They're not a bad pair!

Volkner X Elesa...? I think I ship those two now.

Volkner X Elesa...? I think I ship those two now.

Yeah there are even some fanfics about those two, i want to try writting a fic for that pairing

[Oceanus191]

I ships quite a few of these (:

Lance x Skyla
Volkner x Elesa
Volkner x Candice
Morty x Jasmine
Falkner x Janine
Cilan x Iris

These are the main ones I support but I do ship a lot more.

I'm also a Morty/Jasmine shipper. One of my fanfics mentions them being married and Jasmine is pregnant with their child.

Some of mine:

Morty x Jasmine
Volkner x Candice
Byron x Fantina
Lance x Lorelei
Wallace x Winona
Grimsley x Caitlin
Chili x Roxie
Sidney x Glacia
Aaron x Cynthia

I play around with it somewhat. I have a lot of one-sided/unbalanced shippings. In my Aaron/Cynthia story, Cynthia only likes Aaron, but Aaron likes her likes her (little Hey Arnold reference).

[Azran Flame]

I ship:

Cilan x Iris
Volkner x Elesa
Flint x Skyla
Roark x Candice
Grimsley x Caitlin
Chili x Flannery
Wallace x Winona
Brock x Misty
Drayden x Bertha
Morty x Sabrina

That's all... I think.

[Oceanus191]

Morty x Jasmine
Volkner x Candice
Byron x Fantina
Lance x Lorelei
Wallace x Winona
Grimsley x Caitlin
Chili x Roxie
Sidney x Glacia
Aaron x Cynthia

Yayy, another Morty/Jasmine & Volkner/Candice shipper.

I also support Grimsley/Caitlin as well. Wallace/Elesa is kinda cute too. I also kind of like Alder/Cynthia too in BW after he was flirting with her. I know that's a shipping involving champions but I really kind of like it haha

[00poke_maniac]

I like:

Dento x Iris
Falkner x Janine
Cress x Skyla
Volkner x Jasmine
Caitlin x Grimsley
Darach (if Frontier Brains count) x Caitlin
Cynthia x Steven
Wallace x Winona

I think that's about it, though Flame's Chili x Flannery seems cute. :3

[AquaMilotic]

I'm not into these like some others, but oh well, there are some I like, the only ones I'd see myself as a true supporter of are Cilan x Iris and Morty x Sabrina:
- Cilan x Iris (even though I'd see this as an anime main character shipping, but both are Gym Leaders, so it's worth listing)
- Morty x Sabrina
- Falkner x Skyla
- Volkner x Elesa
- Wallace x Cynthia

I always use the anime as a basis, not the games, that's why I like Cilan x Iris.

[Destroyah]

I have a couple of Gym Leader shippings that I like:

Falkner x Janine
Volkner x Jasmine
Wallace x Winona


For the first two, I feel like there's a nice piece of information to go off, as in the games, Jasmine and Falkner both make the trip over to the other partners respective regions. Falkner actually meets up with Janine, and Jasmine visits the city that Volkner's gym is at. I just find that fun to work with

[VaironGod]

Agatha x Bertha OTP

[Usehydropump]

I ship:

Cilan x Iris
Volkner x Elesa
Flint x Skyla
Roark x Candice
Grimsley x Caitlin
Chili x Flannery
Wallace x Winona
Brock x Misty
Drayden x Bertha
Morty x Sabrina

That's all... I think.

Yay another Soulshipper! ;w;

[DragonTrainerSilver]

I ship mostly protagonist with gym leader's but my favorite is Skyla x Elesa. I think they are a perfect couple.

I've actually thought of doing a little Skyla/Elesa myself.

[Chimpchar]

OMG! A fellow SoulShipper! *starts hyperventilating* (I've found next to none so.......yeah)

So besides that......hmmmm.....
Hardcore:
Soulshipping. that is also my OTP.......
Will x Karen
Lucian x Cynthia
Falkner x Janine (overused-ish, but cool)
Lance x Lorelei (I just know I spelled her name incorrectly most likely, overused yet good)

Considering or to a Minor Extent:
Wallace x Fantina (Come on, I can NOT be the only one who can see this!.....can I?)
Phoebe & Chuck (No idea where this came from, just thought of it......)
Whitney x Bugsy (...no comment...)
Most Normal ones using characters I have not yet used in this post........
Alternate(not my mains, but still like or even love)
Sabrina x Will
Sabrina x Lucian
Will x Lucian
Actually, I like most sensible shippings (by this I mean most non-incest/underage (ex Pryce x Liza or Liza x Tate is a no-no))
If you didn't notice, Will's kinda my shipping bicycle. I ship him with almost all Gym Leaders/E4 Members(Just not at the same time.....). Hell, I ship him with LANCE. I kinda picture him as that guy who everyone thinks of gay (when I portray him as straight) and he's like "I'm NOT GAY!!!" and Lance will be like "Are you sure? I thought you were gay for Lucian" then Claire is like "I thought he was gay for you, Cuz." And Lucian is looking at Will with a quirked eyebrow, as if to say "Then why do you act so overly gay? It's giving ME a bad rep at this point"(in my head canon the 2 are friends) And Will goes on a rant about how he's not gay, then Sabrina shakes her head at the conversation, and is about to leave to talk to a different group of Leaders when Lance calls the start of the meeting.

Ok, bye bye scene that's been in my head like forever! (and note in my head canon, meetings happen once a month and this or something to this effect happens about every 2 or 3 meetings) lol, I'll leave now, this is getting longer than I thought.

[FlyingEevee]

I ship Gym Leaders and Elite Four in every generation, but here's my list:

Brock x Sabrina(Electric Tale of Pikachu started it)
Morty x Whitney
Just about anything that ships Wallace with another Gym Leader/Champion, with a few exceptions
Lucian x Cynthia
Candice x Volkner
Burgh x anyone, but usually Elesa
Grimsley x Shauntal
Cilan x Iris
Cress x Skyla

[ShinyGibleOfEpicness]

ClairXSteven (If you think of it, it can works out)
CyntihaXLance
WallaceXWinona
FalkenerXJanine
JasmineXVolkner
