Pharmercy

Pharmercy is the femslash ship between Pharah and Mercy from the Overwatch fandom.

Canon
Mercy was part of the original Overwatch team alongside Pharah's mother Ana. A picture of the original Overwatch team shows a young Pharah with the team. Meaning that the two knew each other at the time.

Game-play
The ship name was created after many players would use the two as a combo move. Once Mercy's ultimate was accessed, she could fly up and heal or boost Pharah who would then have more powerful attacks. Instead of referring to them as "Pharah and Mercy", players would call them "Pharmercy" as shorthand.

Fanon
Fanart and fanfiction shows the contrast between their professional and personal lives. The two clearly take their jobs very seriously, and fan works will show how they spend their offtime together and them taking comfort in one another. Mercy kinda needs it. She's tired.

Some fic writers will also write the pair as one part of a Mercy love triangle against Gency. Some writers will have her end up with both. While Genji and Mercy are more in the forefront for more mainstream audiences, Pharmercy is more popular in the fandom.

On AO3 it is the most written ship for both characters, and the third most written ship for the Overwatch tag.
