This article is about shipping. As hints and evidence for ships are mostly speculation, this page may contain POV.


ShoppingShipping is the belief in a romantic relationship between May and Brock. Its name comes from the fact that both May and Brock go on shopping sprees together. It is also called NeoThirdWheelShipping because Brock and Tracey were seen as 'third wheels' to Ash and Misty, and, despite Misty being gone now, May is seen as another third wheel that puts pressure on their relationship.
