Jimmy and Marina.

QuestShipping is the belief in a romantic relationship between Jimmy and Marina. The evidence for this can be found in two places in The Legend of Thunder!. The first is in Part One, in the scene with them talking outside the Pokémon Center. There are a number of subtle hints, particularly from Marina. Interestingly enough, many characters do notice this, including Vincent and Jimmy's own Typhlosion.

Opposers to this Ship point out that Jimmy made it clear that he had no romantic feelings towards Marina. However, supporters say there are still hints in the conversation and that "he just doesn't know it yet" (this has been said about Ash frequently). Indeed, similar to Template:S, it is Marina who shows the most hints of romance.

Typhlosion, while not used as evidence for QuestShipping, seems to know about Jimmy's feelings for her.

Near the beginning, when Jimmy is speaking to Vincent over the phone, Vincent beckons him closer and says, "You love her, right? Ever since we were kids..." Jimmy blushes, denies it, and slams down the phone. In the next scene, some say that Marina tries to show Jimmy that she likes him.

At the end, right after Vincent, Jimmy, and Marina take separate roads again, they show a scene where Jimmy is walking through the forest. His Pokégear is ringing. It's Marina, who's asking him if he wants her number. Jimmy calmly says, "Yes," but is blushing and making a "Yes!" gesture as he receives her number.
