=CrimsonVelvetShipping = 

CrimsonVelvetShipping is the femslash ship between May and Serena from the Pokémon fandom.

Canon
May is a Pokémon coordinator from the Hoenn region, currently known as "The Princess of Hoenn". She initially began her journey with Ash, Brock and Max in the "Advanced Generation" series, where upon she was undecided before, but as she traveled she became self-confident, to the point of entering the Hoenn Grand Festival. For her part, Serena is a Kalos trainer who initially began her journey in order to reunite with Ash, who she was childhood friends with, and later became dedicated to being a Kalos Performer before ultimately deciding to become a Pokémon coordinator, departing for the Hoenn region after her journey with Ash to do so. Later, in the Pokémon Journeys series, Serena would meet Chloe Cerise, while exploring the city of Lilycove, they found an outfit that was once worn by the Princess of Hoenn, making the obvious reference to May.

Towards the end of Pokemon Journeys, during the final battle of the Masters 8 between Ash and Leon, Serena and May are shown to have met each other at some point and were watching the battle together. However, when Ash's Pikachu was already tired from its battle against Leon's Charizard, Serena and May knitted their eyebrows and decided to hold hands in the hope that their mutual friend would recover. After the conclusion of the Masters 8 Tournament, it still remains unknown what the relationship between May and Serena exactly is.

Fanon
When it was first created, CrimsonVelvetShipping was nothing more than a obscure crackship. This is because by the time Serena was introduced, May had been written out of the series for 5 years. It wasn't until their brief shared cameo towards the end of Pokemon Journeys 9 years later, showing that Serena and May had met at some point and have likely become friendly rivals, that the ship would gain a leg to stand on and receive a slight increase in popularity. However, despite this increase in popularity, CrimsonVelvetShipping is still relatively obscure and far less popular than Serena's and May's more notable ships, such as AmourShipping, AdvanceShipping, ContestShipping and to a lesser extent, FrenchRoseShipping.

=RibbonShipping=  RibbonShipping is the femslash ship between Serena and Chloe. AKA: BloomAmourShipping, BoltBonsShipping, KohaSere, SereKoha

Canon
They first met in JN105, Reuniting for the First Time!.

Serena approaches Chloe first, recognizing her from Lisia's TV broadcast, and that makes Chloe really embarrassed, but happy to have found the Sylveon she came to meet.

Chloe's Eevee hasn't decided what she wants to evolve into yet, and likewise, Chloe herself hasn't yet really chosen a path for herself, so she asks what got Serena into Contests.

They share some similarities, like having an Eevee and they both were struggling to find a path for themselves.

Fanon
Serena x Chloe was one of the very first Chloe ships, even before they met in the anime. Fans loved the similarities between the duo and their interactions in the episode later.

The last ship name was chosen through a poll on twitter, the other alternatives being HibiscusShipping (because of the hairpin that Serena gave Chloe resembles one), CherryMacaronShipping, and IndecisiveShipping. The first ship names were BloomAmourShipping (from their shipping with Ash, BloomBolt and Amour) and BoltBonsShipping (from Yamper which was believed to be Chloe's and Serena's sweets).

There is some friction between fans of this couple and Amourshipping and Vermilionshipping fan, who dislike it because it gets in the way of Ash x Serena and Goh x Chloe and preferred them to stay just friends.

Ribbonshipping is popular between m/m and f/f shippings fans, such as Journeyshipping, Moonlightblossomshipping and Chloe x Regina.
