Dawn/May, known mostly as SapphirePearlShipping and/or ハルヒカ (Haruhika), is a rare ship in the Pokémon fandom. It pairs Dawn (Hikari) and May (Haruka). Both characters are female protagonist characters: Dawn in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl and Platinum and May in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald. They are both also companions of Ash Ketchum in the Pokémon anime, though not at the same time, with May leaving before Dawn joined.
This page covers both interpretations of the characters.
