'''OpticShipping''' (Japanese: '''デンタケ''' ''DenTake'') is the belief that {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Cilan}} belong in a romantic relationship. The name of the ship derives from how they each have unique eyes: Brock's are always squinting, while Cilan's lack {{wp|sclera}}.

==History==
This started as a "{{Redlink|nevermet ship}}," a ship of two characters who, as the name implies, have not met each other. This ship began along with the {{series|Best Wishes}}; at that time, Brock has already left prior to the series, and Cilan would eventually join {{Ash}} a few episodes after the series began. The two finally meet in person in [[BWS01]].
