== Personality ==
At the start of her journey, May didn't like Pokémon, as she only wanted to start her journey just so she can travel and visit places. However, her encounter with Ash and Brock changed that. Despite her beauty, May is a sweet and very kind-hearted person, who would help people in need. Like [[Misty]], she can get very angry at times, with her disagreements with Ash or her brother, Max, but unlike Misty, she is able to overcome her fear of Bug-type Pokémon. However, she can get very sad, especially when she loses a Contest, but does her best to prevail. She is also shown to have a side for romance, though at rare occasions. She became angry to her Munchlax for it was eating food that belongs to someone else and running off when she didn't kept an eye on it, she had Max give Munchlax "pink suprise" in order to fill up Munchlax's appetite and prevent it from eating.
