Some Kind of Neverending Romantic

Neverending Romance, Pokémon's shipping list website, now in tumblr form. Which is rather scary. Because 'ships. All the 'ships. Please read the mission statement for the objectives of this blog. :3

If I'd known I'd be gone that long, I would have turned off asks and submissions sooner. All right, folks, let's do some real talk.

I am stepping down as the list's caretaker. By all accounts, I stepped down when November started, but then stuff happened, and the next thing I know, it's December and I never made the proper redirects. Dropped the ball, there. But to be fair, I wanted to fall away and run as fast as my feet could carry me the second October hit, everything that happened afterwards be damned (and oh it was), and the last week was mostly me hiding away because I'm sort of a piece of crap who rightly can't communicate and guilts over everything.

But the list has a new caretaker. Introductions are up to her on the tumblr end, because there's the choice of being an "anonymous face" to a present personality. That said, we're changing connected tumblrs from this one to another: http://pkmnshippinglist.tumblr.com/ So everyone who's also in it for the naming action, you may want to start following that account for the time being.

In the mean time, until the above becomes active, I advise all list submissions to be directed to the website's guestbook, since a lot of you are fond of being anon while submitting. Or if you have accounts on BMGf or SPPf, be brave and post there. I do not advise emailing, for the moment.

If anyone wants to talk to me, you can contact me at my main account, since for the time being asks and submits will be off for a while.

That said, no, Malva/Siebold can't be SetFireToTheRainshipping, as that's taken, and someone coined BoilingWatershipping for them around the same time, which is free. So Malva/Siebold is gonna be that. Sorry guys.

For the person who submitted Greninja/Accelgor/Ninjask with the choices of Shinobi or Ninjashipping, both are taken, so you need something else.

For the person who submitted Morty/White as FullMoonshipping, that is taken, so you need something else.

For the person who submitted Ash/Gary/Serena as AnimeHistoryshipping, it's already called ColorsCombinedshipping. (And shame on you for trying to pull a Manga- situation.)

Hi. I suggest NoMansLandShipping for Lysandre x Maxie. Credit for the ship name goes to Helioptile from Bulbagarden Forums.

You could have just submitted it there. Unless you weren’t the initial asker?

HellooooNurseShipping - Cynthia/Nurse Joy

Conflicts with HelloNurseshipping, so you need another name.

Okay, that's a lot of submissions to go through. Someone was very busy while I was away.

But, the thing you all want to hear (I'm sure), and I really hope I never have to see what happened in those comments ever again.

Poll is closed, Amourshippers win. Do us a favor: don't be crappy winners. Say nothing, move on.

DIFFERET ANON BUT I NOW SHIP GREYSHIPPING

*FIST BUMP*

[incompleteromance]

What's Colress/Sycamore? I've seen a lot of names thrown around and me and a few friends OTP it.

Got it down as Suavehairshipping.

[incompleteromance]

I love you. can you and i have a shipping name pls?

You and I?

Let’s call us Greyshipping. You are a greyfrace, and grey is my favorite color. :3

Hi. i am wondering what cremeshipping means on the ash x serena poll? like what does cream have to do with the ship? like i know amour is love and reunion is meeting again, and rougeur is redness or something, and the rest are obvious, but what is creme mean? it is a bit weird imo

Long explanation is long. It’s here, and it was initially submitted as a name prior to the knowledge that Serena was to be a companion; it was held off as its name in case she was. As a poll choice, I kept it as an option because I felt I owed it and the submitter, and it had some light support early on.

[incompleteromance]

When are we going to have a poll for Serena x Clemont?

With them having met now, I imagine pretty soon.

BodyGuardShipping Bianca/Hilda/Iris

Already the name for Archer/game!Silver.

[incompleteromance]

Is your real name Luna Tiger? because damn that has a nice ring to it

My real name? Like my legal name? Nah. it’s just my handle.

My real name is much cooler. (You think I’m exaggerating, but I’m not.)

[incompleteromance]

To echo the commenter on the Shippers' Paradise forum in the shipping list thread, I'm also wondering why Ash/Clemont didn't get a poll. It seems rather unfair, considering you've been all about "fairness" lately. :/

Three polls, two and a half disasters, and someone is/was always unhappy. It’s been quite fair, I think, but what resulted was a mess in all regards, even if some of you can’t see it.

You really want to go through that a fourth time? Executive decision, and like I responded there, it was due to circumstances I’ll never manage to explain properly, caused by an initial decision made by me back in…oh…September?, which give it its current usage even when I retracted its submission from the website. if I hadn’t posted it before realizing I might need to poll it, it wouldn’t be in use at all, so my mistake and less issues.

For the people asking what a diode is, it’s a science thing. Electricity. Does a thing. I suggest trying here.

[incompleteromance]

So real life made a liar out of me. Didn't get to make all the decisions I wanted, but had to get this out so a few things, submission wise, weren't ruled on. Nothing too major, but sorry if it's yours.

[incompleteromance]

your webside doesn't work anymore? :/

For the moment. Nope, it’s back. High increase in traffic onto the bulbagarden server tends to bring it down on occasion, but it’s normally temporary. XY excitement peak.

I’m pretty sure my website’s on the same server their forums are, so when that goes down, so does the website.

[incompleteromance]

You said on the forum that you thought of "LumioseShipping" for Clemont & Trevor, but I was going to suggest it for Ash & Clemont, since they first met in Lumiose and it's an easy enough name for people to remember for a possibly popular XY slash ship...

After a bit of thinking, we're gonna go with the name Diodeshipping for Ash/Clemont.

[incompleteromance]

I just want to make sure, did I send OldandNewGirlfriendShipping for Leaf/Red/Lyra or did somebody else name it before me?

Sounds familiar so I think you did send it, and I'm almost sure no one else beat you to it. We'll find out soon.

[incompleteromance]

Is it overwhelming getting a lot of ship names? You seem to be working really hard

Yeah, at the moment it’s kind of a real big flurry of keeping submissions straight and trying not to lose them and stuff. And I’m kind of….I’m running out of juice, and it’s not just the submissions; it’s maybe the entire fandom that’s wearing me down. I suppose it doesn’t do me any good trying to take reprieves since it just makes things worse when I finally kick myself back into gear, and me dropping out leaves questions and help unanswered and that really not fair, but it’s mentally draining trying to keep up, and there are just some things I can’t handle at the moment; for all that, I greatly apologize. (But m’not young anymore. ;.;)

But the next update will be over the weekend, so that’ll be a relief of its own.
