Since a question like this has not yet been asked, and seeing that the creator of this has a liking for the little drake, why not ask you guys a question:
I enjoy nearly all Spike ships - especially the rarer ones! Spike shipping is one of those things I've always greatly enjoyed in mlp fanfiction. Not least because I've always liked dragons, but also because I love that the pair must overcome the age, race and personality difference.
I think if I were pressed to give my absolute favorite pairing, I'd say SpikeDash. It's been my favorite shipping right from the start. Back then Rainbow Dash was my favorite of the mane 6. She still is one of my favorites, in fact, particularly to ship. She's a very interesting character to ship.
Spike and Sweetie Belle is one of those ships that I think is so cute Ever since I read The Sweetest Gem, I've always thought it was such a sweet ship. However, usually Rarity is heavily involved in such stories which can get a bit repetitive. As for Spike and Rarity shipping, I find it to be a touch flavorless. I've read some pretty impressive ones, but usually they have Spike chasing after a mare who's completely uninterested in him.
That's what I love about Spike: the way his personality could go anywhere. One fic he might be kind and compassionate, the next he might whip out the shades.
You raise a fair point, a lot of Sparity ships are quite funny, but I enjoy finding the comedic value in more ridiculous ships. (Rainbow Dash x KItchen Sink = OTP!!)
I don't know why either, but I love that ship! It might have been because the first clopfic was that particular pairing I don't even know why I decided to read it, but I did. It wasn't very well written (It was also a heat fic...) but I think it was the main trigger for enjoying that pairing.

I Agreed for the eternity!
947061 if i had to choose, it would be that.
but, with spikefics, i much prefer fics where spike becomes a badass. cause he deserves it.
947061
I like Sparity
But mostly for the comedic potential that you get with one-sided ships.
947065 947069
947082 That's a nice ship too
947061 I'm not really sure why, but I love the idea of Spike/Applebloom.
I'm reading one now about Spike and Diamond Tiara which I think is pretty cool but I still like SpikeDash.

You know me too well, sir
