Tokka. Definitely. I'm all for the ships that are just a little unusual... something is a little wrong. For Tokka, it's the age gap (same as Kataang). Stereotypical relationships get boring after a while. So I go for the ones with a chance that are weird.

I used to prefer Tokka to Sukka but now it's the other way around. XD I still think Tokka is adorable but Sukka has a lot of the shippy vibes I like (tag-teaming, fidelity, normal cute teenage couple-ness) with the added bonus of giving Sokka a chance to show off his serious side.

Ana, you betrayed meee. D;
jk, love. <3
As much as I like Sukka, I still prefer Tokka. Those vibes are actually the case with Tokka, too. Sokka has certainly shown his serious side when it comes to Toph a lot, like when they had to hang up the Appa posters, he immediately took the initiative to let her come with him or when he immediately grabbed her to get away from angry Aang in "The Desert". He seems just as protective of her as he was of Suki in "Serpent's Pass".
The fidelity during their talk in "The Runaway". The tag-teaming plenty of times because the group was always divided into Aang and Katara as a pair and then Toph and Sokka as one. Also the cuteness with Toph's blush.
Sukka is awesome, too. It's the best canon-ship of the show, imo. Suki and Sokka have a lot in common, they had great chemistry and their relationship was developed realistically and at a good pace. But I still prefer Tokka, because (and I talked about this with Ana before, lol) Toph fell for Sokka despite knowing what he even looks like. She could have easily develop a crush on Aang since he was the one who showed interest in her first and talked to her and basically was the one who gave her the freedom she always wanted. But instead she got a crush on Sokka, purely for his personality and even despite her bias for bending. That's just very strong.

Aww, Kohana. <3 Sorry for the shipping change. That said, everything you said is indeed true. Toph did fall for Sokka genuinely because she wasn't distracted by his looks. But I think the reason I stopped shipping Tokka first is because by the end of the show Toph seems to have gotten over her crush on Sokka. She isn't sad or jealous about Sukka. Suki, however, was in The Boiling Rock for months and months but didn't give up on Sokka. Plus, one of the most emotional moments we have with Sokka is him crying when Azula taunts him with Suki knowledge. I still think Tokka is a good ship but Sukka seems like the true love ship to me.

Tokka, to me, sounds a little. . . . ew. Not only is he 3 years older than her (which, I admit, wouldn't be a big deal in the future, but now it seems a little too wrong for a TV-Y7 kids show Actually, Padme Amidala was FOUR years older than Anakin Skywalker, and they got married, so I don't see how Sokka and Toph being together seems wrong for a Y7 show. As you can see, I chose Tokka over Sukka. Reason why is, Toph starts out as just Sokka's friend, and it eventually grows to be a crush.But, with Suki, she meets him, they don't like each other, and then after Sokka comes to the Kyoshi Warriors asking forgiveness, they're all suddenly nice to him, and then Suki's suddenly in love with him. Or at least, it seems that way to me. And besides, Star Wars has weirder ships than Tokka. Proof: Beniri.But I shouldn't start talking about that...

I voted for Tokka. Suki was very bland and I did not like the fact that they elevated her up to Gaang status next to no character development. And it bothered me that Toph's crush was just kind of glossed over and was not addressed again after Sokka's Master.
The reason I ship Tokka is because they are kindred spirits. They are comfortable around each other. They've got a relationship Sokka doesn't have with anyone, not even Suki. He's admitted things to Toph that he couldn't to anyone else, not even Katara. It may not be more than friendship now. But once they get older (and once they're in their 20's age won't matter) something more may very well come of it. And since they are such great friends anyway, I think it'd make the transition a lot easier.

But instead she got a crush on Sokka, purely for his personality and even despite her bias for bending. That's just very strong. Err, I'm not trying to debate or anything, but I just wanted to say: you gave some great reasons as to why it was expected for Toph to devolop a crush on Aang. But she liked Sokka anyway. And her crush only showed for a few second in a few episodes, and there was no build-up to it. Also, it didn't go anywhere, or help her grow in any way. Don't get me wrong, Tokka's funny and cute, and I do like it at times. But I just don't see where it came from, or why it was even there. They're both cynics, which isn't beneficial to either of them. Toph didn't like Ba Sing Se because she felt like it held her back. Sokka didn't understand why she didn't like it, because he values structure more than freedom. Their talk in the runaway was cute, but anyone could have told Toph that Katara had good intentions when she was motherly, and she would have made up with her. And while Sokka shows his serious side with Toph at times, in the Runaway he came to her with the poster,he only to be manipulated into keeping his mouth shut. Mostly they just joke aorund together. And Sokka being protective of her is a bad thing, because Toph hates protection. That's why she ran away from home. Toph and Sokka and Aang and Katara were not always a pair. There was also Toph and Katara, Sokka and Aang, Sokka and Katara, Toph and Aang, and later Zuko and Katara. And Zuko and everyone. This is just my opinion, and I don't wanna offend anyone

Sukka! -Points at username-
Toph had a bit of a crush on Sokka, for sure, but the odds of them being together were slim. As Sokka and Suki had a 'thing', and were happy together.

I'm all for Suki/Sokka. They were cute together and I kinda like the whole thing were Sokka ended up dating girls who weren't benders. It just made it kinda cool. Plus she helped him not be sexist and she got him in a dress, I'm not even sure Yue could do that (no offence to Yue lovers). Also I think Toph and the Duke would have been cuter.

Sokka and Suki are so incredibly cute together I can't even think of the two of them with someone else. I will say there were plenty of situations in the show where I hoped that Sokka liked Toph, because she totally crushed on him and I feel bad that she didn't have Sokka to kiss at the Serpent's Pass instead of Suki hahaha

Sukka all the way ;D cause they fit each other perfectly like a puzzle piece and to me it just looks like Toph has a childish crush on Sokka - Its innocent love and its better they stay in a frendship kind of way rather than take it further ;D

Before 'The Serpent's Pass', it was always only Yuokka for me. But after that Tokka hit me. Hard. Sukka only bored me. Even TBR didn't convince me that they belonged together. I just found it plain. But Tokka seemed much more interesting and their interaction was so...natural. I mean, they were able to communicate with each other so well. And their personalities fit better IMO. Suki was a little 'forced' character. Got to know just the surface.

Guys, guys... ^.^
Tokka of course. They're absolutely perfect for each other, not just as best friends, but soul mates. <3 I started shipping Tokka after the series ended and I was rewatching the episodes, because I realized how adorable they are together and how much potential they have. They both trusted each other enough to tell each other things they've never told anyone else. Gahhh I just fell in love with both of them being together! XD ;D
That is all. v.v
