Bat is the pairing of Beck Oliverand Cat Valentine (B/eck and C/at). Other ship names are Ceck (C/at and B/eck) and Cack (Ca/t and Be/ck), although the terms are rarely used. Bat is popular among viewers and in fanfiction. Cat and Beck are not seen much together but are known to be good friends. Beck is known to be amused by and play along with Cat's weird and immature antics, and he tries hard not to hurt her feelings. Also, Jade has never gotten jealous of some of the moments they have had, even when they had to kiss in Dale Squires's movie. Jade seems to trust Cat more with him than she does with Tori or any other girl. Also, it is interesting to note that Beck has kissed the most girls, and Cat has kissed the most guys.
Avan Jogia and Ariana Grande are best friends in real life as well. See Aviana for their real-life pairing. There is also a Bat Wiki which needs expanding.
Beck and Cat are currently very good friends, and their dynamic is somewhat based on the fact that most of their fans believe that they are an unexpected couple. While many Victorious shippers are more interested in Bori and Bade, Bat supporters find the pairing to bBat on a slap video
e fresh and unique. Beck doesn't seem to mind Cat's random outbursts that much. Many and most shippers see Bat as a brother-sister relationship; Bade shippers seem to tolerate Bat better than Bori for many of the same reasons that Jade seems to trust Cat with Beck more than Tori. At the same time, some Bori and Tandré supporters are also fond of this pairing, sometimes because some Bori shippers find it cute, and because Bat goes hand in hand with Tandré.
