Shipping Thread

That is one high kick.

Berry cyute!

Welcome back

@Ranch  
Yes it is.

Wonder how much shipping potential the new show will have.

@Background Pony #CE9B  
Considering how Lyra/Sweetie Drops was a thing well before they shared a scene together, I think the fandom will put in the work no matter what.

@Background Pony #CE9B  
There’s already shipping and G5 has even premiered yet. Fandoms and ships are like peanut butter and jam.

@Background Pony #CE9B  
It’ll depend on how many male characters they have.

@Background Pony #CCE0  
Again, Lyrabon.

@Background Pony #CCE0  
There could be literally none and everyone would be shipped with everyone still. If someone wanted a straight ship they’d make an OC. Fandoms are relentless in their desire for ships.

@Brass Beau  
Considering how much the Mane Six are shipped with each other, as well as the Background Mane Six sometimes has Doctor Whooves replaced with Carrot Top to keep it “pure” or something, I think there being no males would only increase the amount of shipping.

@Meanlucario  
Oh, i forgot. Oops.

@Meanlucario  
Since I’m more of a straight shipper, I always felt there was a limit to the possibilities I could have with this. It’s not like Sonic where there so many possibilities for pairings, you don’t even know where to start.
 
At least I can always have male oc’s.

Often times, like with my otp, I just scoop up a background pony that may or may not have some fanon to work with and just make them into an OC for shipping purposes. It may sound weirdly “throw away” and random. But I got super attached to Rainbow Dash x Dumbbell as a ship.

EVERYONE HIT THE DECK, IT’S SHIPPING FUEL

I aint scared o no splosions. Bring it on.

@Ranch  
That’s what I do for mostly background characters.
 
I’m having Tempest team up with Flash Sentry.

@Sparx
 
Noice. What got you pairing those two up? Is it romantic or platonic?

@Ranch  
Platonic and I think it’ll be interesting honestly XD

What are the top 4 most popular Mane Six ships? I’d say Rarijack, Twidash, Appledash and Flutterdash.
 
(I’m talking about just between the Mane Six).

@Background Pony #45E3  

 
Those certainly are the most popular on derpi

@Background Pony #45E3  
Funny how three of them involve RD

@Brass Beau  
People love their stereotypes.

@Meanlucario  
A lot less about stereotypes and a lot more about Dash being a general fan favorite I’m p sure.
