 * Blaziken (Bursyamo): The Blaze Pokemon and the final evolution of Torchic. May's starter and most powerful Pokemon, got it as Torchic. Torchic was relatively inexperienced and wasn't fond of battling. However soon after May learned about contests and got her Beautifly, Torchic started to be neglected and was focused on improving itself and gaining May's attention again. It managed to do so when it evolved into Combusken and made May realize that it was a good Pokemon choice for Contests. However it originally started out being a fairly agressive Pokemon but May started focusing some training on Combusken and it eventually became a calm, yet vital part of May's team and has partaken in many Contests and Festivals and managed to win on many occassions.

While Silcoon was not properly used in battles, May did utilize its String Shot to overcome obstacles in her way. After a face off with Jessie's Cascoon, Silcoon evolved into a beautiful Beautifly, and became what May had hoped it would become; A beautiful Pokemon that's perfect for the appeals in Pokemon Contests. Through this, May focused more on Beautifly for her contest training and used it in many contests ad her first festival.

Moves it knows are Metronome, Focus Punch, SolarBeam and Tackle.
 * Wartortle (Kameil): The Turtle Pokemon and the evolved form of Squirtle. When May went to Professor Oak's lab, she befriended a baby Squirtle. However the Squirtle did not want to go into his Pokeball and so joined May.

After evolving into Piloswine, it changed personality drastically. With a much stronger range of attacks, Piloswine felt its strength outweigh Dawn's and as such it no longer obeyed her completely. After learning AncientPower, it evolved into Mamoswine and was even more hot-headed and immediately charged at Ash and Co.
