Someone actually went through all the fics on here and created a chart showing how many stories each pair has been shipped in.
This is way more interesting than it should be.
Poor Rainbow Dash never gets a break!

>is writing an applejack/pinkie pie ship
ReplyDeleteOh this'll be fun. To be criticized as the first to attempt the pair. Augh.
No spike x bigmac?
ReplyDeleteI am disappoint
There's a Spike and Celestia one?
ReplyDeleteI MUST FIND THIS.
According to this Rainbow hasn't been with Trixie, spike and Rarity. I think Trixie could happen if you spin it right. Rainbow doesn't like being with Rarity as if it wasn't obvious from the one time she was put into a powdered wig.
ReplyDeletePinkieDash, the backbone holding this fandom together.
ReplyDeletewait... no spike/applejack? *le gasp*
ReplyDeleteI think we may need to rename Rainbow Dash to Town Bicycle.
ReplyDeletewait...if i'm understanding this chart correctly, there hasn't been a twilight/rarity ship? are you sure about that?
ReplyDeleteif so, then this one i'm working on is gonna be the first. i'm ok with this; pretty sure i was the first to ship applejack/fluttershy too ^_^
The applejack and big mac ships are beginning to scare me.
ReplyDeleteAnd somebody shipped Trixie with herself... Twice?
mymindisfullofapples.jpg
no raritydash or spikedash or trixiedash? this is madness!
ReplyDeletealso trixie X trixie?
oh nevermind, i missed the lines connecting the two on the first look. disregard.
ReplyDeleteIs there a higher res one?
ReplyDeleteClearly this chart shows that we need a Trixie/Derpy story as soon as possible
ReplyDeleteWhat story shipped Fluttershy and Derpy?
ReplyDeleteDerpy: forever alone
ReplyDeleteWho shipped Applejack/Celestia?
ReplyDeleteBecause that's pure oatmeal right there.
@Anonymous:
ReplyDelete>TrixiexDerpy
...So tempted...
@Other anonymous:
>What story shipped FS and DH?
One I need to read right now.
I noticed that there is no line connecting Rarity and Rainbow Dash.
ReplyDeleteDidn't Everyone Loves Dash establish a line between them?
I demand a Pinkie/Celestia or Pinkie/Luna.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Spike needs more love. ;_;
PINKIEDASH AND APPLEDASH. IT WILL BE A FIGHT TO THE END. THERE WILL BE BLOOD.
ReplyDeleteOh Rainbowdash you're such a playa!
ReplyDeleteWhat no AngelxGummy? OpalescencexWinona? ElizabeakxHummingway? PhilomenaxFlutteryshy?
ReplyDeletex()~
I wish there were a lot more lines connecting Fluttershy and Luna. My favorite pairing, and there's still only the one story. At least there is the one, though.
ReplyDeleteSpike X Celestia?
ReplyDeleteWUT?
someone needs to count comics too [like http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/04/comic-trollestia-strikes-back.html#comments for example :3]
ReplyDeleteI would also like to know what fic shipping Applejack and Celestia O_O
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of magic going on...
ReplyDeleteWait, so how does this diagram work again? If there are more than 10 lines connecting the same set of characters, Hasbro is going to make that ship cannon in Season 2, right? :P
ReplyDeleteOther notes:
1. Rainbow Dash... just wow. You're just giving it away now aren't you? What, do you just hover above a street corner in downtown Ponyville?
2. Big Mac. Seriously bronie, you have no game. NONE. All your ships are cuz you are the only male pony on that diagram. Wut? Come at me bronie!
3. Trixie. Shipped with herself... twice? What... I don't even... By magic? Somebody please re-post the link to these stories! My curiosity is killing me!
4. Luna. Why isn't Luna getting more pony love? Sad Luna is a sad pony. :(
>MFW someone didn't count Reconnection, which puts Rainbow Dash and Spike together.
ReplyDeleteRarity = I'll make Rainbow Dash a wonderbolt costume so she'll love me.
ReplyDeleteTrixie = What there is someone who doesn't love the great and powerful Trixie well I'll show her... runs up and kisses Rainbow Dash.
...also, why isn't Bloomberg on this chart!
ReplyDeleteI think you are missing a Twilight / Twilight ship. I don't know if it would count though because it was her human counterpart, but its still herself theoretically...
ReplyDeleteThe sheer density of Pinkie/Dash connections will soon be enough to distort the fabric of space-time.
ReplyDeleteClearly we need someone to write Spike x Derpy.
ReplyDeleteYou know what, I thought the diagram must be wrong for a second after counting the actual number of lines between Pinkie and Dash... but then I realized that the lines must just have started overlapping one another. :P
ReplyDeleteI could have sworn there was more AppleDash than Pinkie/Dash. Darn it, I need to step up the propaganda campaign...
ReplyDelete>make SpikexCelestia, a shipping fic so purely batshit insane that it somehow stands out on the chart.
ReplyDelete>see people notice in the comments
I just love it when people react to that. Everybody asking, it's one of my fics, "a simple affair"
it isn't as crack-pairing as it first sounds...
@Naxts I shipped Trixie with herself once, don't know who did the other one though.
ReplyDeleteAlso Trixie got shipped with Big Macintosh? Twice?
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteDash and Rarity have lots of differences but they ARE close friends.
Someone fix this problem now WRITE A DASH X RARITY FIC! DASH MUST BE SHIPPED WITH EVERYPONY.
Are there no fics pairing Twilight with Pinkie Pie? :(
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeletehttp://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/01/story-priority-mail.html
It's pretty cute.
@Anonymous If it's what I think it is, it was a fic written for Valentine's Day, where Twilight and Spike went to Canterlot for dinner with Celestia as a family. Twilight left the room to get the carrage ready, and that's when the shipping started, though it was very clean, only being quick kissing and implying history. I have no clue what it's called at this time, though.
ReplyDeleteIt's called 'Simple Affair'.
*vain attempt to keep sanity* Heh, it's funny that there's a graphical error that indicates many people have shipped Big Mac and Applejack together.
ReplyDeleteI'm proud to help with the TwiLuna shipping bars...
ReplyDeleteDerpy X Dash?
ReplyDeleteMUST. FIND. FIC.
With all the shipping on this blog you might as well call this Port Equestria Daily
ReplyDeleteGilda should be on the chart.
ReplyDeleteshe's been shipped with quite a few characters.
...Now I have the strangest urge to write a fic that ships Luna and Pinkie.
ReplyDeleteDerpyxApplejack
ReplyDeleteDashy proves that pimping can be easy.
ReplyDeleteWait, when were Mac and Luna shipped together?
ReplyDeleteAlso, I see a distinct lack of Mac/Derpy shipping. This needs to change.
We need tags that conform to the shipping parameters.
ReplyDeleteFlutter/Dash is surprisingly popular. I can't tell how popular exactly, because at least one of the lines is at an odd angle and crosses over several others. But I think it's at least nine, which puts it unexpectedly close to Apple/Dash and Dashie/Pie.
ReplyDeleteDashie definitely takes the lead as Ponyville's prime playa, but Twilight and Fluttershy are really fighting over second place according to this.
Why no Apple/Pie? The pun alone from that should make that obvious, but there's no Pinkie/Mac either, so maybe she's just too random for the Apple family. And how are there FOUR Pinkie/Shy fics? I need to find those now(I'm only aware of one that was recently updated). Somehow I thought there might be at least one Derpy/Pie, but apparently it's yet to be written.
There's also the ommision of Twilight/Spike here, I know that's happened at least once(IIRC, it was one of the early fics, the one with Pinkie getting Dash pregnant. Again).
4 lines between Twilight and Big Mac
ReplyDeleteWhat Rarity Needs
Ships that Pass in the Night
The Three Notes
Communication
All things I've written or that are based off things I've written.
Am I really the only one that ships this?
I am honestly surprised we haven't had Rarity/Luna yet.
ReplyDeleteRarity is so interested in Canterlot & the royal family, and fanon Luna could benefit from some attention from somepony detail-oriented with a lot of empathy. I don't know if I could see Luna enjoying being the center of a makeover plot, but Rarity… would enjoy the opportunity.
@Ebon Mane
ReplyDeleteThat's one of my favorites too, actually. I wish it was written more often.
@Anonymous So far, Pinkie/Dash is the only one that surpasses 10.
ReplyDeleteAnswer to other notes.
1. Her entire HOUSE hovers over a street corner...
2.I totally agree.
3. I believe at least one of those involved a mirror.
4. The number of lines connecting her to her own sister disturbs me...
Someone needs to write an Applejack/Luna ship
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteWay ahead of you.
Merely A Mare is going to be an Applejack/Luna ship. The prologue is done, and I'm steadily working on the chapters. I'm going to submit the prologue and the first two chapters to ED when I'm done with chapter 1 (chapter 2 is already done. Chronological derp.)
Raw data... I demand RAW DATA! Can the creator of this post an Excel sheet or (better still) a Google Docs spreadsheet? :)
ReplyDeleteTBH I think that Pinkiedash is over done. Also, I used to have issues with it (partially family reminder related. though not so much since I saw Pinkie Pie as another person in one of Megasweets Pictures... that made me more tolerant) but I still think its an overdone concept.
ReplyDeleteNow Pinkieshy or Flutterdash. Now thats Dawww.
There us not one spikextwilight story?
ReplyDeleteRealy??? How???
Hum... No RD-Rarity shipping ?
ReplyDeleteSpike-Celestia... wait what ?
Celestia-Luna, ooohhh... Where ? I don't 'remember' reading one on ED ?
RD-Pinky : OF COURSE ! :D
Luna-Twilight : Not many, that surprise me... They go so well together. :)
HEY !
He forgot the DJ P0N-3 (Scratch Vinyl) and Rainbow Dash shipping ! How could you !
How did AJ and Celestia wind up linked?
ReplyDeleteseriously someone go write some Dash X Rarity NOW.
ReplyDeletesomebody forgot about twilight's special spell that's twi/twi
ReplyDeleteWhat about Gilda?
ReplyDelete@Ostrich
ReplyDeleteEveryone knows Gilda is a closet RD fan no matter how she acts she'll always go crawling back to her. ALWAYS.
No RarityxDash? I am disappoint.
ReplyDeleteTrixie has two stories with her shipping herself? I only see one.
ReplyDeleteI see no muffins on this chart! Derpy/Muffins is the OTP!
ReplyDelete@Purple Tinker
ReplyDeleteRaw data-wise, it is based off the EqD Sortable Story archive here: http://fairyslayer.byethost4.com/StorySort.html plus the naughty adult one which I probably shouldn't post but you can find the link easily enough)
I've seen Rarity x Trixie before. I'm very surprised it isn't listed.
ReplyDeleteIf this chart is going by clopfics as well, it is extremely incomplete. Many have not been accounted for.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteI've actually written a SpikeMac, but Sethisto went homophobic and rejected it.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ltp9cjjqq9wASF2JGMPxIJ9GymHDjCh4kKBsqkoiMGY/edit?hl=en#
Now, can someone help me out here, cuz I dunno how to see this: is Rainbow Dash everyone's b**** or is everyone Rainbow's b****?
ReplyDeleteJagged: I vote the latter. Definitely the latter.
ReplyDeleteNo Pinkie x Spike... Not ALL stories then.
ReplyDeleteStill, holy hell. Especially Trixie x Trixie.
Am I. The only person who does not like Pinkie/Dash? FOREVER ALONE.
ReplyDeleteAlso DASH/RARITY RIGHT THE FUCK NOW let's do this bronies.
TrixieXTrixie is canon.
ReplyDeleteNo Spike x Big Mac? No Trixie x Luna? Wow, this chart is very disappointing.
ReplyDeleteHuh, I'd like to see the Trixie/Mac ones. The story search is useless, it doesn't have either one of them, yet has Applebloom and CMC as two columns :/
ReplyDeleteApplejack x Celestia? Where's that?
ReplyDelete@MyLittleBrony Did Sethisto say it was for that content? Because it seems to me that the uneven writing might (also) have been a factor.
ReplyDeleteEven as a silly/random fic, the characterization and narrative tone make it a little challenging to enjoy.
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteYes, yes you are. RD-Pinky is one of the most 'liked' out there.
The chart need the DJ P0N-3 and RD.
Still don't know where are those Celestia-Luna stories ?
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteI wasn't very surprised when it didn't make it since I wasn't even serious or anything. I was surprised that he explicitly told me it was for just that reason, though.

ReplyDeleteEgad!
I here-by command that from this day, that some-one writes a Derpy/Big Macintosh fanfic starting now!
ReplyDeleteYour king has spoken!
The Trixie/Trixie made me lol
ReplyDeleteThis graph would be better as a triangular matrix.
ReplyDeleteI'm kinda sad that I can only find 4 Mac/Twilight ships, and the majority of them are quite depressing. Very well-written, but it would be nice if reading them didn't fill me with sadness haha.
ReplyDeletenow the real question is what would this chart look like if we included all the clopfics?
ReplyDelete@pyrite
ReplyDelete"My god...it's full of ponies" D:
Why am I reading these discussions in the middle of the night when I'm sick and need to sleep? And WHY do I get this sudden urge to write some Spike/AJ nonsense? xD
ReplyDeleteThose Twilight/Dash lines are deceiving. Most of them are harem situations or love triangles. And I think that maybe TWO of the stories that involve only them have a happy ending.
ReplyDeleteSeriously, TwiDash really needs some love. :\
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteNo, I hate the pairing too.
And it doesn't help most of the fanart and fanfiction of it is incredibly OOC or sound like it's written by the equivalent of 13 year old Narutard fangirls.
I think Rainbow Dash/Big Mac has been my favorite of these. The things people come up with are infinitely amusing (and occasionally disturbing), but at the end of the day I guess I'm really not all that much of a shipper. Right now, anyway.
ReplyDeleteBut don't let that stop anypony from shippin' 'til every last possible ship is shipped! xD
Rainbow Dash sure is compatible with her friends, eh?
ReplyDeleteOH DEAR GOD, WHAT IS THIS.
Celestia and Luna? Big Mac and Applejack? INCEST, DEAR GOD. D:
And Spike x Celestia? Oh god, pedofilly.
So, when do we get an archive filter based on the updated shipping chart. Wouldn't that, or something similar, make looking for all these stories waaaaaaaaaaay easier?
ReplyDeleteNopony rests untill Dash has clopped with everything!
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'll go through Fanfiction, the story archives here, and through the clopfic stories to make a graph of the shippings and the stories which they were involved in (excluding clopfics).
ReplyDeleteMaybe I won't.
If I do, it will be one huge-flank graph.
When I said "and the stories which they were involved in (excluding clopfics)." I meant the names of the stories, excluding clopfics.
ReplyDeleteWut.
ReplyDeleteNo Pinkie X Big Mac??!?!
I DEMAND SOME SHIPS!!
this chart needs at least 10% more AppleDash
ReplyDelete@rob
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts exactly
Also, Trixie x Trixie is totally Great and Powerfully canon
According to this chart, Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle are whores, and Trixie is more self absorbed than one could begin to imagine.
ReplyDeleteto be honest, i kinda wanna find that trixie fic...<.<
Why isn't Whooves/The Doctor on here. I see plenty of him being shipped with Derpy and Twilight
ReplyDeleteCould somebody please tell, what's the title of that spikexcelestia fic?
ReplyDeleteWait wait waiittt! Trixie.. has been in ships with HERSELF? I MUST KNOW THE TITLE!
ReplyDeleteWhy is Gilda not on this chart?!
ReplyDeleteWe NEED a spikeTwilight
ReplyDeleteAnyone know the name of the DitzyDash fiction? I wants it.
ReplyDeleteIt's unfortunate the most of the Sparkledash and Twilight/Big Mac fics are of the sad variety. Those are my two favorites. AND I really don't like Pinkiedash either.
ReplyDeleteI saw everyone talking about the TrixexTrixie thing, so I went and found one. Even though it is more of a G rated Trixie orgy, enjoy.
ReplyDeletehttp://blueshift2k5.deviantart.com/art/Trixie-s-Favourite-Pony-206025526
While it lacks many a character and is likely outdated by now due to more fanfic coming out in the intervening time, I have a few comments.
ReplyDeleteApple/Mac? Cel/Luna? GAH
I wanna find those Twi/Shy fics! :D
Spikity needs more love. (C'mon, floks, it's prolly the most canon out of all of them!)
There's never too much Dashie/Pie!
And where's the Doctor/Derpy love?
To be honest, most of this chart doesn't surprise me. But the fact that there is so little Twilight x Luna makes me rather sad. After all, it is my favorite pairing, followed by Twilight x Trixie. But one thing that I would love to see, even it would never happen is Celestia x Ditzy. For some reason, I want to see how that would happen

ReplyDeleteClearly, this calls for some DerpyxLuna. :B
ReplyDeleteWe need more DJ-P0n-3/Rainbow Dash fics, stat!
ReplyDeleteAnd one involving Dash and Octavia too.
spike x celestia...
ReplyDeleteda fuck?
I'll agree that seeing the idea of a Celestia/Luna or Applejack/Big Macintosh pairing is a little ... squicky.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how to feel about Celestia/Twilight, either, and that'd extend to Twilight/Spike if it ever came up.
And for Celestia's sake don't mention others who 'need' one. I found this chart because someone cited it as their inspiration for a Twist/Gummie pairing. And if it weren't for the other ideas I had in mind, I'd probably now be considering Angel/Gummie.
I'm going to make a terrible joke now...
ReplyDeleteI guess Dash has relationships...
(Sunglasses)
...As colorful as a Rainbow.
Yay!
There isn't enough FlutterDash! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
ReplyDeleteThis needs to be updated. There is a Derpy/Big Macintosh pairing.
ReplyDeletelooks like dash launched a shippingwave and it bounced of everypony and somehow managed to hit trixiextrixie? + it needs update cuz there are way more now than before
ReplyDeleteYou know, I'm almost 100% sure I've seen a FLuttershyXTrixie...
ReplyDeleteI've read a LunaJack shipp! But it shows there isn't one. Merely a Mare
ReplyDeleteThis chart was made over four months ago, people. Of course there have been ships since then that aren't on here. For example, there's now a fanfic that ships Rainbow Dash with herself. TWO of herself.
ReplyDeleteI kind'a wanna' read that again, now...
I really want that Trixie x herself fic
ReplyDeleteThey forgot to put OCs in this chart
ReplyDeleteI FOUND THE SPIKEXCELESTIA FIC
ReplyDeletehttp://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/02/story-simple-affair.html
I saw about 6 lines of AppleMac. The world has very serious problems.
ReplyDelete...um have you forgotten "Kindness's Reward"? that is a Fluttershy x Trixie
ReplyDeleteLooks like only I'm crazy enough to ship anything with any of the Diamond Dogs...
ReplyDelete*Looks at Twilight and Trixie shipping*
ReplyDeleteWTF, BRONIES, THEY HATE EACH OTHER
According to the chart, we need more:
ReplyDeleteWe need more of the following:
-CelestiaPie, NO FICS PEOPLE!
-CelestiaDerp :3
-TrixieTrixie. SERIOUSLY.
-CelestiaShy
-Well, more Celestia...anything. Except Twilight.
-LunaPie and TwiSpike, again no fics.
And more.
Oh what, a chart to show all the shipping stories?
ReplyDeleteMISANTHROPY +1000
MISANTHROPY APPROACHING CRITICAL LEVELS.
Not so surprised about Rainbow not being with Spike, but why no Trixie or Rarity?! We need these fics, and Rainho Dash will be complete!
ReplyDeletewe also need Luna and Pinkie Pie. We could call the pairing "Moon Pie"! eh? eh?
ReplyDeleteProven. Rainbow Dash best pony. She must be really tired of this too.
ReplyDeleteI'm honestly scared of shipping anything, but I might try something like RariDash after I get out some popular stuff. Eep! The very concept is extremely delicate and horrifying.
ReplyDeleteI hope this chart is really inaccurate... Big Mac-Applejack and Celestia-Luna are way too messed up.
ReplyDeletetrixiexapplejack ship anyone?
ReplyDeleteso many RD shippings
ReplyDeleteThats Because Rainbow dash is a sexy beast
ReplyDeletespike and celestia?
ReplyDeleteda fu...
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteWhy the heck aren't vinyl scratch and octavia on here? They've been shipped NUMEROUS times, and not just with each other.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous you forgot FlutterDash. You can't even count the lines xD
ReplyDelete@Anonymous you forgot FlutterDash. You can't even count the lines xD
ReplyDelete@Fon ShaolinFuck pinkiepie/rainbowdash!!! fluttershy/rainbowdash forever!!!!
ReplyDeleteJust because it isn't shown on the chart doesn't mean it has never been done before, I'm pretty sure all possibilities have been shipped before, it's just that there are so few compared to other ships that it is not worth showing them. Also, more LunaShy is needed. :)
ReplyDelete
