BakuDekuChako is the poly ship between Katsuki Bakugou, Izuku Midoriya and Ochako Uraraka from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
Izuku and Katsuki were childhood friends until Katsuki began to pick on Izuku for being quirkless, and the two meet Ochako when the three attended UA to become heroes. As both Izuku and Katsuki were inspired by All Might, while Ochako wants to support her family. Izuku and Ochako had saved one another during the entrance exam, while Katsuki kept to himself and became the only person who didn't earn any rescue points during it. The three end up becoming classmates in Class 1-A. Izuku and Ochako also became fast friends, while Katsuki kept to himself and only spends some of his free or group time with Izuku then Ochako. When it was time for them to pick a class representative, both Izuku and Katsuki voted for themselves while Ochako gave Izuku her vote. Katsuki became upset that Izuku got more votes than him, and this causes Ochako to blow an innocent whistle.

During they their first ever lesson under All Might, Izuku and Ochako get placed in the same hero team, while Katsuki serves as one of the villains they'll face. Before they went into the building, Izuku tells Ochako a few things about the type of bond he has with Katsuki and how they were never able to talk about it. Because Katsuki was angry that Izuku suddenly has a quirk and has never used in front of him until after they attended UA, he attacks Izuku and Ochako when they were making their way to him and Tenya Iida. Izuku came up with the plan of him holding Katsuki off, while Ochako goes on ahead to grab the bomb, and will after join her after he defeats Katsuki. Even though Ochako was able to get the bomb before time ran out, their actions earned each one of the three low points.

In the first My Hero Academia film, Two Heroes, the three run into one another on I-Island while having no idea that their classmates would be there as well. Izuku first bumps into Ochako, before they learn that Katsuki also on the moving island from winning the sports festival. Katsuki was angry to see Deku and as he tries to clam his childhood friend down, Ochako gets him to try on beating Katsuki's score and doing so fever angers Katsuki. The three were then invited to a party that is being held, even though Katsuki doesn't want to attend it Eijiro Kirishima manages to convince him, while Deku and Ochako wait for Katsuki and Eijiro to arrive; so they can go in together with the rest of their classmates. As a lost Katsuki tries to find his way to the party, Deku and Ochako learn that villains have took over the island and decide to do something about it, and they later run into him. Katsuki stays behind to find some of the villains while Izuku and Ochako went on ahead. An hour after Katsuki was filled in on what's going on and minutes before he gets close to catching up with Deku and Ochako, Deku was forced to go on ahead without her and he left terrible about leaving her as danger approaches his friend. Luckily Katsuki was able to arrive on time to save her and reminds Deku why they must see their task through. Katsuki and Ochako are later seen cheering Deku on as he helps All Might fight the main villain.

Fanon
It is rather a rarepair in the fandom, due to the little time Katsuki spends with Ochako, and the other rare times that the three spend time together; outside of school or training. Most fans have Katsuki being jealous of Ochako liking Izuku than him. BakuDekuChako may not be as popular as TodoBakuDeku and OchaHimiDeku, it still has many loyal supporters.

On AO3, the ship has 155 fanfics.
