General Shipping Discussion Thread V.3

[Venomous 18,813]

Due to technical difficulties, this thread has been recreated.

This thread is designated for discussing shipping in FiM.

Which ship is best? Who do you ship? Talk about it all here.

OCs are allowed…I guess.

✦Any and all related threads will be merged here✦

The ship I will always default to anymore is Trixie and Starlight Glimmer. They have such a fun, if flawed, dynamic that I can't help but always cheer for em. Likewise, Radiant Hope and King Sombra from the comics, as well as Celestia with alternate King Sombra. Such a tragic pairing. <3

I ship Rainbow Dash with Roarke from a fimfiction story. Roarke is a metal mare and has mechanical organs and lenses over her eyes. She was a bounty hunter tasked with hunting down Rainbow Dash, but Rainbow Dash saved her life from her former ways, and showed her harmony. Then Roarke eventually paid it forward into her homeland, a land dominated by bloodsports.

StarTrix is such a good ship. I also do appreciate the dynamics and chemistry between the two characters.

I seem to be alone in this, but I always ship my beloved Princess Twilight Sparkle, with Princess Celestia! I want another royal wedding!

[Sparklefan1234 161,880]

My main headcanon ship is Pinkie Pie and Princess Luna because opposites attract.

As for "real" ships, I would say Rarity and Applejack is definitely my number one with Starlight and Trixie taking second place. 

[ExplosionMare 18,007]

My favorite ships are StarTrix and SoarinDash (although this ship isn't canon anymore), both ships are pretty cute.

Just thinking about the possibility that Soarin could've married a Pie. That would've been a pretty clever episode, IMO.

"Soarin is going on a date with Limestone!?" 

"He said he loved pie."

*Walks in, sees the pictures, walks out again* Shipping is not for me. No matter what version, 3 or earlier

EDIT:

Starlight + Sunset Shimmer since I have to be on-topic

[Ashen Pathfinder 16,152]

Actually; I'm gonna add another. There's a certain polyamorous relationship I support!

My second favorite ship from a long time back, second only the Rarijack.

[Splashee 28,537]

*Covers eyes* Too much shipping for my poor soul

[CaliforniaSpeedKing 12]

I'm curious, what would you guys think about a rather unique ship. My oc Chester Green and Pear Butter. Chester Green is a 23 year old demistallion and is from Vanhoover.

Ok so this is somewhat cram pairing but what about rarity and maud? They both like rocks and gems? 
 

Maybe it’s to far fetched.

If it wasn't for the show already pairing Mudbriar and Maud I would say yesssss! 

Also slightly like Maud and Starlight because of "Rock Solid Friendship" if I already didn't like Starlight and Trixie so much! 

But anyway, there's a great Friends Forever comic (my favorite mlp comic) that pairs Maud with Rarity and it's just lovely and honestly gives some shipping if not just best friends even before "The Gift of the Maud Pie." That comic makes me cry 😢

Friends Forever #29

@WolfyIsAQT
I merged your shipping thread with the already existing one. Next time, before creating a thread, try searching if a similar one already exists.

[WolfyIsAQT 63]

Oh and I also like AppleBlitz(Applejack X Rainbow Blitz) Even tho Rainbow Blitz isn't a canon character..

[Megalobronia 98]

How does Fluttershy x Princess Cadance sound as a shipping? Or at least the chemistry?
