Description

Pinkie’s pregnancy was quite difficult for her, a mare having two babies was a rare thing imagine three!! But actually nopony knew there were three of them there. Certain chubby unicorn was able to escape from the ultra sounds and the doctors’ eyes. Thankfully Pinkie wasn’t alone during all the pregnancy.

Everytime I draw Pokey I feel bad for making him dissapear for 12 years.
Let’s talk about Pokey’s design because yes.
He has a look inspired in mythological unicorns (curved horn, long tail, quite small and with his hooves at discovered). He heights like a regular mare, quite smaller than a regular stallion, that makes him just a bit taller than Pinkie, who is a bit smaller than a regular mare. I associate curved horn with strong innate unicorn magic, but his horn is a bit short, that’s because he doesn’t practice his magic too much. Pokey actually could have been a great magician but it’s not his thing. Of course his horn is still pointed enough to make balloons explode.

Huh. I had a look through the pokeypie tag, and I’m actually kind of surprised to see this ship is still so popular. No comment for or against the ship itself, but I would have assumed it’d have left the metaphorical spotlight after the first couple seasons.

More or less the opposites attract idea. Personally, some of my favorite ships are opposites attract so a really I want to like this ship, but I often prefer ship with plenty of canonish moments to work off of, this ship, unfortunately, has none.

I kinda feel the same about it in terms of that love/hate relationship towards this particular ship.
 
I think it helps some people that it was one of the earliest hetero ships for Pinkie so some people, especially people who were here in the fandom’s earlier days, might gravitate towards this particular ship.
 
Not to mention background ponies like Pokey Pierce can often act as stand in OCs for some fans since he doesn’t have a set canon personality so people can give characters like him any personality they want for fan fiction or fanart without it being considered out of character since he doesn’t have much of a personality to begin with.
 
Also a lot of famous fan artists in the fandom have made really good shipping art and Next-Gen OCs for this ship (Kilala being one example that comes to mind, even though her new Next Gen AU has Pinkie/Party Favor as its ship instead).

I both despise this ship and find it truly inspired. No other ship has survived on so very little for so long. I mean 8 seasons now and we still have never once heard his voice let alone had him even giving any affection to Pinkie Pie or even looked at her. Heck, we have crack ships with more to work with than this ship.
 
Yet with all that against it, the ship is still standing so strong.
