Nice detective work! That Bulbapedia page is real, and was 50% of why I wrote that strip. (The other 50% being a "why not" pun!)

Isn't stuff like shipping in the Pokemon fandom that reminds you that it's fucked beyond reasoning? :U

when will pokeshippers learn, there will never be any canon pairings in pokemon.

even Serena's only going to be in the kalos saga before the next gal pops by when 7th gen comes along.

sad as it may be, romance does not exist much in pokemon. only the very minor one ep characters have chances

Well while I'm not denying that we may never see any true romance become canon, what makes this difficult is...They heavy implied Ash & Misty for a long time. They still do actually even in newer episodes. And while I admit I haven't watched a lot of the other seasons, it seems to me like the creators of the Anime haven't hinted a romantic shipping with Ash since Misty. The only time that has been implied is Melody's teasing in Pkm 2,000, and several pokemon with Latias disguised as a human girl to name one.Β  Again I don't know about May or Dawn, (I saw B&W with Iris) but it just seems to me that of all the girls Misty still gets more actual hints of romance in Ash's life.

may and dawn were really just friends with ash, they have never shown any interest

Serena did have a history with ash, and is often noted for having a crush on him, one of the episodes even has her believing a shopping trip with ash as a date

Huh that's new. Again I haven't followed the anime in a while.

yea, i'm not surprised, I almost abandoned it after the fiasco that was unova saga, but i know most people stopped somewhere around jhoto.

but yea really the in a nutshell of all the girls with ash were

Misty being a tsundere around ash, mostly yelled at him but grew into liking him, anime later turned her to just a friend though
May was originally mad at ash for destroying her bike, but they eventually gave in a friendship that was very mutual, they were evenly matched in skill
Dawn was more like ash's pupil throw diamond and pearl
Iris was a complete bitch to ash most the time, always belittling him and all
Serena's very friendly to ash, and sometimes can be seen with a blush when talking
