ContestShipping: Difference between revisions

: Drew's second appearance on the television series introduces the recurring theme of Drew giving May roses. Drew hands his rose to May who stares at it in surprise. She blushes and thanks him for the rose to which Drew responds with, "It's not for you, it's for your {{TP|May|Beautifly}}! It looks like the {{pkmn|Coordinator}} still has a lot of training to do."  

: After May's Beautifly performs its failed {{m|Gust}} and {{m|String Shot}} combination, Drew appears and makes a negative comment about May's ability as a {{pkmn|Coordinator}}. He openly flirts with May this time, claiming that he's flattered that she remembered his name and subsequently hands her a second rose. Before he leaves, he warns May to not "get her hopes up." His excuse for coming to talk to her was to see Beautifly, a common excuse at the beginning of the series.

: A few scenes in this episode shows Drew watching the Contest in the audience. Many wonder why he even came to the Contest because he was not competing in the Contest, and he could have been spending time comforting his badly injured {{TP|Drew|Roselia}}; yet, he chose to go see May compete. During the episode, Drew is constantly commenting on how much May has improved. Whenever something goes wrong, like when {{TP|May|Skitty}}'s {{m|Blizzard}} failed, he looked extremely concerned and nervous,but when she was doing well, he looked really happy; almost as if he felt exactly what May was feeling. Later, Drew is surprised that May had won, but also shows that he's very happy for her.  

: It is revealed that the rose and the letter was not sent by Drew but by a rookie Coordinator named [[Brianna]]. May teases Drew about the mix-up, rationalizing that it's not her fault for thinking the rose and the letter was from him. Drew gets extremely embarrassed and blushes, especially when his Roselia begins teasing him as well.

: Drew showed up for May's Contest even though he had won his five ribbons a long time ago. Drew had gone out of his way to see May in her Contest, and many believe it was because he wanted to see May, and truly cares about whether she wins or not.

: When {{Ash}}, {{an|Brock}}, and [[Max]] fly away with {{TRT}}'s Balloon, Drew follows it and rescues them. When Ash thanks him later, Drew says that he only did it for May, so someone could cheer her on. Many believe this sentence proves that Drew thinks way more of May than of Ash, Brock, and Max.

: May meets [[Solidad]], one of Drew's old friends, and talk for a bit. Solidad tells her that she and Drew are close and talk to each other often. When May asks her what they talk about, Solidad smiles and tells her, "He's the type who never listens to anyone else's advice. So, we end up talking about other Coordinators we might've seen in performance, and at some point, he started in on you. ''You'' and only you." Later, Solidad tells May, "He's gotten feelings for you."

: When Harley told May that something was wrong with Drew, she panicked and ran to see what was wrong. When Drew said that he didn't feel any passion when {{TP|Drew|Absol}} used {{m|Razor Wind}}, she whispered in a caring and passionate voice, "Oh, Drew...". When Drew snapped at her, she look completely hurt and shocked, beyond what any normal friend would feel. May also took what Drew said very seriously, instead of brushing it off because she knew it wasn't true. Drew almost seemed shocked himself that he spoke that way to May.
