The problem is that good ships grow from good source material. Digimon doesn't have good source material. It's mostly kiddy shounen anime with "default heterosexual" couples when there's any pairing at all, and most of the games are heavily gameplay-oriented with little chance to develop interesting characters or relationships. Cyber Sleuth was some of the best food we ever got, and even that was plagued by shoddy localization.
And we still haven't forgotten the awful post-timeskip pairings from Adventure...
