I think Dogamy and Dogaressa is a rather cute couple. Same with Undyne and Alphys.

However, I hate it when the UT fandom tries to make Bratty and Catty into lesbians. Mainly because they are both already attracted to a male-identified robot.

Remember kids: There's a difference between friendship and being romantic lovers. Despite it still feels to me like fanservice, I actually like Alphyne, Alphys date and her confession to Undyne were pretty cute and funny. I am not that shippy person, and I guess my opinion on certain ship is mostly dependent of how good fandom interpretation is.

I also don't like BrattyxCatty, can someone have a best friend without being in love with them? And yeah... Monsters of the Underground love Mettaton because he's popular, he simply has a power to brainwash everyone into being obsessed with him...

That's why I dislike Papyton, yeah Papyrus called him "sexy", but Bratty and Catty also said they wanted to marry him, yet nobody ships them with Mettaton. Plus in the neutral ending where only Papyrus and Mettaton are spared, it was never implied they got together. Papyrus also seems to have lost a bit of respect for Mettaton in that ending. I guess, people can ship whatever they like... but I guess don't like it how everyone treats it like it's a cannon ship. I AGREE WITH THIS SO MUCH! I honestly don't ship that much unless the two characters have had a LOT of evidence towards their relationship. Even then, it's still hard to bring me aboard a ship. Alphyne is really cute. And it' pretty underrated. I look up "Undertale ships" and all I see is "OMG SORIEL IS BEST SHIP" or "PAPYTON IS SO CUUUUUTE" or "CHARISK 4EVER" and the likes of that. I mean, I know Alphyne is canon, but their relationship is so honest and funny and both of the characters are pretty freaking awesome.

But yeah, why can't two gals just... be pals? I'm all in favor of some rainbow relationships, (look above to see me obsess over Alphyne) but two minor characters who both seem to have romantic feelings for METTATON and don't have any hints of relationship between the two? I don't feel like it's a good enough basis to ship them.

And Papyton? Sure, "sexy". Papyrus calls Mettaton sexy. So what? In another phone call with Papyrus and Undyne, Papyrus says he likes Mettaton because he's so popular. He doesn't really state any other reasons. And I call famous people sexy sometimes, but that doesn't mean I'm in love with them! I feel like most people ship these two because they think it looks cute.

And finally, Soriel. Honestly, it's one of the better ships, but I think Asgoriel has more evidence. I mean, all that happened was that Sans and Toriel told jokes to each other and became friends. I mean, sure. It's kinda cute, but that's not really enough evidence. I can't really imagine Sans or Papyrus (see above for Papyton) in a romantic relationship with anyone. Sans is too lazy to really be able to do something like that, and Papyrus doesn't seem like the guy to fall in love. Personal opinion, but still. Asgoriel, on the other hand, I feel has a lot more evidence. Before Flowey kills Asgore, Asgore states that he "just wants to see his wife and child again". He still loves her. And Toriel is just mad at him because he didn't free the monsters sooner because he was too nice. Not because she didn't love him anymore.

But yeah, just my personal opinion on some more popular ships
