If your Apple Pencil won't pair with your iPad
- Make sure to center your Apple Pencil on the magnetic connector on the right edge of the iPad.
- Restart your iPad, then try to pair again.
- Go to Settings > Bluetooth and make sure that Bluetooth is turned on.
- On the same screen, look under My Devices for your Apple Pencil. If you see it, tap . Then tap Forget this Device.
- Connect your Apple Pencil in to your iPad and tap the Pair button when it appears after a few seconds.
- If you don't see the Pair button, wait for one minute while your Apple Pencil charges. Then try connecting your Apple Pencil again and wait until you see the Pair button.
- If you still don’t see the Pair button, contact Apple Support.

Why not? What happens when you try? Any errors? If so what do they say?
How are you trying to pair them?
What version of Apple Pencil is it? Identify your Apple Pencil - Apple Support
What model of iPad Pro is it exactly? Identify your iPad model - Apple Support
Provide some details and someone may be able to help.

First, this is not Apple support - we are all other end users here, so someone will reply if they know the answer to your question. And, you did not include any necessary info in order to help you:
Which version of Pencil?
What iOS and which iPad model/year?

When I connect the pencil--it shows connected for 2 seconds and immediately shows not connected.
