Jasmine/Volkner, mostly known as AlexandrianShipping or デンミカ (Denmika), is a common ship in the Pokémon fandom. It pairs Jasmine (Mikan) and Volkner (Denji), the gym leader of Olivine City and the gym leader of Sunyshore City respectively. Jasmine was introduced in 1999's Pokémon Gold and Silver while Volkner comes from 2006's Pokémon Diamond and Pearl. The pairing primarily came about because Jasmine makes a cameo appearance in Sunyshore.
Most Jasmine/Volkner fanworks focus on their appearances in the Pokémon game series. They've also appeared in the Pokémon anime and the Pokémon Special manga.
