BachiRin is the slash ship between Meguru Bachira and Rin Itoshi from the Blue Lock fandom.
Canon[]
Second Selection Arc[]
After Team White loses to Team Red, Aryu and Tokimitsu pick Bachira to join them. Rin says it doesn't matter who they pick. Then Rin tells Bachira "I hold your destiny now."
While waiting for a worthy team to fight Rin and Bachira trained together, to the annoyance of Rin. Bachira just wanted to get stronger and better understand Rin while Rin clearly saw through Bachira's whole emotional state and how it affected his football. Rin tells Bachira he is looking for someone with his soccer and that being afraid of fighting alone is lukewarm. This stuck with Bachira all the way through the rematch between Isagi's Team White and Rin's Team Red. When Bachira, Rin, Aryu, and Tokimitsu play against Isagi's team, Bachira realizes that Isagi and Rin are both monsters. He says he doesn't care which one, as long as he gets to play with them.
Rin was more than able and willing to efficiently use and push Bachira's football skill to the limit in an attempt to win. Bachira was more than willing to step up to the high plate that Rin and Isagi had set for him. After he broke through his trauma and became someone who is fighting for the world's best striker, Bachira becomes someone Rin trusts on the field and is closer than most people to a friendship with him.[1]
Bachira's quick cross assisted Rin in scoring the only goal against the World Five. Then in the last stage of third selection, Bachira first choses to be on Rin's team. In the U-20 arc, Bachira passes to Rin calling him "revenger." During the NEL arc Bachira starts training more seriously, he starts mediating like Rin. Rin and Bachira haven't interacted much in canon since second selection ended. They are opposites with seemingly little in common. Bachira sees soccer as fun, and Rin sees soccer as a battlefield. They both see loneliness in each other.
PWC[]
In the Blue Lock PWC game, Bachira often tries to or trains with Rin, eat lunch with him, and watch matches with him. Bachira often annoys Rin until Rin says yes or leaves. He wonders if Rin ever gets lonely and worries over him. In the Halloween event, Bachira says Rin would look amazing in a costume since he is tall and has long eyelashes.[2]

Most fanfictions take place with them as professional soccer players, or them training together during the second selection.
Bachira wants to show Rin soccer can be fun. He enjoys watching Rin play and the challenge he provides. They both understand what it means to be alone. Bachira's been wanting to play soccer with a monster, and after he meets Isagi, he also finds Rin. Isagi and Rin are both monsters Bachira wants to play with. It was the possibility of not being able to play with Isagi or Rin that made Bachira find his ego and original reason for playing soccer and evolve.
