Canon Overview

[characterization, story role, further important appearances]

Relationships

M/M | Yaoi

  • Pearl is most commonly paired up with Diamond, forming AbsurdistShipping[1]. In Japanese, this is most often called ダイパル (Daiparu), meaning Diamond is the seme and Pearl is the uke in the coupling.
    • The opposite is also commonly shipped and is written as パルダイ(Parudai).

F/M | NL

  • Pearl is also shipped with Platinum Berlitz, forming HaughtyShipping. In Japanese, this is called パル嬢 (Parujou), 嬢パル (Jouparu) or パルプラ (Parupura).

Gen | Combi

  • Together, Diamond, Pearl and Platinum make up the PokéSpe Sinnoh Trio.
    • In Japanese, their gen (combi in Japanese) relationship is called シンオウトリオ, meaning Sinnoh Trio.
    • This is not to be confused with 神奥トリオ, which is this same group but for the Gameverse.
    • シンオウ組 may also be used, though that just translates as Sinnoh Group, so it includes any large group of Sinnoh characters.
