:Ash, May, Brock and Max end up in a deserted place where there are no boats or ferries for them to reach [[Dewford Island]], where Ash's next gym battle will take place. They manage to find a beach port which is deserted and May happily says that at least they found a beach, to which Ash irritably replies that, "A lot of good that does if we're going to miss the boat anyway!". May then becomes quiet and after hearing Ash say that he was really eager to go to Dewford Island for his next gym battle, she determinedly says that she will find a boat on her own while the others can relax. Later, while searching for a boat, May looks out to the sea and thinks about Ash yelling at her earlier on, which makes her say to herself that Ash didn't have to be so nasty about his doubts.

:May is sulking on a bench outside the [[Contest Hall]] because she lost her match. Ash comes alone to comfort her, cheering her up while patting her Bulbasaur on the head and sitting next to her on the bench. This is followed by a sheepish smile and a "Thank you Ash," from May.

:Ash is known to be rash and short tempered, and is not one to apologize easily, yet, when he and May were arguing about contest/gym battles before, Ash never raised his voice at her. Afterwards, when confronting her about running from contest after losing to Savannah, his tone is both kind and compassionate; and says that he doesn’t blame her for yelling at him before. This is a side of Ash we rarely see.

:When May was embarrassed by Harley's playback of Max's story and lost her focus, Ash called encouragement to her that helped her snap out of it and pull through and win the match. After her victory, May thanked Ash for helping her to snap out of it. She stated that if it wasn't for him she would've lost, but Ash said it was nothing.

:In another love-themed episode, Ash is confused about the concept of love. May teases him and says, "Spoken like a maaaaaan," in the [[dub]] while she says, "And he doesn't get it," in the original Japanese. As the episode continues, Ash says, "No sense in going out of your way just to make somebody like you," to which May responds, "And he still acts like a man," in the dub while in the raw, "And he reeeaaaally doesn't get it." This is the second episode in which May teases Ash about love.

:May decides that she wants to continue traveling with Ash after Hoenn ends, which compels her to travel from the [[Hoenn]] region on her own to meet up with Ash in [[Pallet Town]]. This was before she found out there were Contests in [[Kanto]], so she decided that she wanted to be by Ash's side even if it meant not continuing her {{pkmn|Coordinator}} dream for the time being. When May shows up at Ash's house, Delia recognizes her on sight, even though she has never seen her before. This could suggest that Ash has told her a lot about May.  When May sees Max, she seems surprised, then angry at him for coming. This could suggest that she wanted to travel with Ash alone. Ash and May share a scene on the couch together, where Ash asks her if she wants to come along with him through Kanto. May of course agrees, while Delia is watching them converse, and blushes, thinking, ''Ash has such good friends''. This could ''possibly'' be due to how close she thinks the two are.

:During the battle with {{TRT}}, May can be seen glancing towards Ash's direction after her {{TP|May|Bulbasaur}} used {{m|Petal Dance}}. Soon after, Ash used ''his'' {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, to use {{m|SolarBeam}}, and blast away Jessie and James's Pokémon. It could suggest that either May wanted Ash to battle alongside her or if she just wanted to steal glances at Ash.

:This is also reflected in all of May's other Contests, in which Ash always seems to be emotionally involved and always helping May when she is in a dilemma by shouting helpful advice to her, though being enthusiastic and supportive seems to be part of Ash's personality, as he has done that for pretty much everyone he has wanted to win a battle or contest.

:While May worries about the contest, Ash volunteers right away that he “would be happy to help her train.” May looks at him gratefully and thanks him. Later, after being infuriated by Harley, May quickly says, “Ash! Want to train?” Ash quickly finishes his food and stands up, then replies, “Right behind you!” in a determined fashion. Later, after May barely makes it through the first round of the contest, Ash is seen staring at her with the brown in his eyes showing (which usually only happens when he gets very emotionally passionate about something), while saying, "You deserve it. You really turned it around, May."
