Character Profile

MayMay is the daughter of Petalburg gym leader Norman. She is a young newbie trainer that Ash takes under his wing when he arrives in Hoenn. This is probably due to the fact she is a lot like him when he started training; constantly getting the names of attacks and Pokémon wrong and screwing up in battles. She is more interested in travelling and in the companionship of Pokémon rather than actual battling and enjoys taking part in Pokémon contests. She is even more of a tomboy than Misty is, and has no fear of bug Pokémon.

Starting out on her travels, May goes to Professor Birch's (Hakase) lab to recieve her first Pokémon. However, he is currently in the field doing research. She discovers him about to be attacked by three Poochyena, and it's up to her to save him. Birch tells her to use one of the Pokeballs in his bag. She releases a Mudkip, which ends up disobeying her direction, and spraying her in the face with water. Luckily, she is able to defeat the Poochyenas, and travels with Birch to find Ash and Pikachu.

NormanAfter she meets Ash and Pikachu (who accidentally destroys her bike) and arrives back at Birch's lab, it's time for her to choose her first Pokémon. She is a little frightened by Treecko, and, as Mudkip didn't follow her orders before, she decides against it as well. However, when she see Torchic, she instantly loves the Pokémon, and it seems to quickly take to her as well.

With her new Pokémon, May sets off on her Pokémon journey with the experienced Ash, to be later joined by Brock and her little brother, Max ('A New Land! A New Adventure!').
