'''May''' (Japanese: '''ハルカ''' ''Haruka'') is the female choice for the [[player character]] in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} and their [[Generation VI]] remakes, [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]. She also serves as a [[rival]] in the same games if the player chooses to play as her male counterpart, {{ga|Brendan}}. | |||
'''May''' (Japanese: '''ハルカ''' ''Haruka'') | ==Terminology== | ||
She is named '''May''' (Japanese: '''ハルカ''' ''Haruka'') when she appears as a [[non-player character]] in the [[Generation III]] games and their [[Generation VI]] remakes. She is also known by {{mas|May|the same name}} in [[Pokémon Masters EX]]. | |||
She is known as '''Anna''' (Japanese: '''アルファ''' ''Alpha'') in pre-release media for [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]]. She is named '''エミィ''' (''Emy'') in some screenshots of {{game|Emerald}} on the Japanese Nintendo website.<ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n08/bpej/frontier2/index.html Pokémon Emerald on Nintendo] (Japanese)</ref> | |||
===As a non-playable character=== | ==In the core series games== | ||
If May is not selected as the player, she is helping her dad finish the Hoenn [[Pokédex]] and becoming a Pokémon Professor. She is also the player's rival and friend. | ===Character profile=== | ||
====As the protagonist==== | |||
[[File:May Mega Ring ORAS.png|thumb|200px|May's Mega Ring]] | |||
If the player decides to choose May their player character, she acts as a silent protagonist, like previous playable characters in the core series. Like them, she is able to make player-based decisions, with certain characters responding to different decisions if given the opportunity. | |||
May will interact and form relationships with most of the other characters in the [[Hoenn]] region. She forms a [[friend]]ly [[rival]]ry with her neighbor, {{ga|Brendan}}, and [[Wally]]. May can be seen as a skilled Pokémon Trainer, defeating Brendan, who had previously owned a Pokémon prior to their meet. Additionally, May is seen as helpful and friendly, teaching Wally how to capture his first Pokémon and inspiring him to become a stronger trainer. | |||
May's known relatives as the player character include her father [[Norman]] and an unnamed [[Mom (Hoenn)|mother]] who she lives with in [[Littleroot Town]]. She is neighbors with [[Brendan]] and [[Professor Birch]]. | |||
[[File:May Brendan Credits ORAS.png|thumb|200px|May and Brendan after the events of the game]] | |||
====As a non-playable character==== | |||
May also appears as a [[non-playable character]]. In this role, she forms a rivalry and friendship with the player. | |||
May is a young girl who performs field research for her father, [[Professor Birch]], showing a helpful side. She will occasionally battle the player in friendly sparring, complimenting them on their skill for being a newer Trainer. May often accompanies the player character, providing them with helpful information and items on their journey. In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, she offers the player the chance to travel with her between certain locations in the story. During the climax of the game, May appears to show worry for the player, in hopes that they are safe, creating a bond with the player over the story. She is given the title of "Rad Neighbor" in place of her {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}} on the [[PokéNav]]. | |||
Both of May's parents appear in the video games, her father [[Professor Birch]] and an unnamed mother. In {{g|Emerald}}, she also has a younger brother who also lacks a known name. She is neighbors with the player character and their family. | |||
===Role=== | |||
May has the relatively the same role in all core series games she appears in. However, this role changes on if she was chosen as the player or non-player character. In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, this role is expanded upon | |||
====As the protagonist==== | |||
If May is selected as the player character, she starts her {{pkmn|journey}} moving from her old home of [[Olivine City]] in [[Johto]] to her new home in the town of {{to|Littleroot}} in [[Hoenn]]. After saving [[Professor Birch]] from a [[wild Pokémon]], she is given one of the three first partner Pokémon of the Hoenn [[region]]. May develops a close bond with {{ga|Brendan}}, and eventually [[Wally]], who both act as her rivals. May goes on to gather the eight Badges of Hoenn, stop the plans of [[Team Aqua]]{{sup/3|Sa}}{{sup/3|E}}{{sup/6|AS}}/[[Team Magma]]{{sup/3|Ru}}{{sup/3|E}}{{sup/6|OR}} and conquer the Pokémon League all before going off to face the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}{{sup/3|E}}/[[Battle Maison]]{{sup/6|ORAS}}. | |||
====As a non-playable character==== | |||
If May is not selected as the player, she is helping her dad finish the Hoenn [[Pokédex]] and becoming a Pokémon Professor. She is also the player's rival and friend. Along with Brendan (when playing as May), they are the only rivals unavailable for battle after entering the [[Hall of Fame]]. Additionally, they both are the only ones to not [[evolution|evolve]] their first partner Pokémon into its final form, except for in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, where their first partner Pokémon have been fully evolved by the battle that takes place at [[Lilycove City]]. | |||

In the game, two of the optional names—one in Ruby and one in Sapphire—refer to "land" and "sea" respectively. In the English version, these are '''Terra''' and '''Mar'''ina; in the Japanese version, ムツミ '''''Mutsu'''mi'' and ナミ '''''Nami''''' (陸 ''mutsu'' means land and 波 ''nami'' means a wave of water). This is also the case in other languages. Unlike Brendan's name list, none of the three shared names correspond to this theme. <!--Nicola is probably "coal" (the Japanese names aren't direct references, either), but that could be a coincidence.--> | In the game, two of the optional names—one in Ruby and one in Sapphire—refer to "land" and "sea" respectively. In the English version, these are '''Terra''' and '''Mar'''ina; in the Japanese version, ムツミ '''''Mutsu'''mi'' and ナミ '''''Nami''''' (陸 ''mutsu'' means land and 波 ''nami'' means a wave of water). This is also the case in other languages. Unlike Brendan's name list, none of the three shared names correspond to this theme. <!--Nicola is probably "coal" (the Japanese names aren't direct references, either), but that could be a coincidence.--> | ||

==Trivia== | |||
* As the [[player character]] (along with {{ga|Brendan}}), they are the only set of player characters that have both a [[mother]] and a father present in the {{pkmn|games}}. | |||
* Similarly to Brendan, May's attire in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire is mainly based on her appearance in Emerald, though some elements are also taken from her appearance in {{v2|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. | |||
* While the second battle with May (or Brendan if she is the player character) is optional, the encounter leading up to it is not. | |||
** Therefore, after receiving the [[Devon Goods]] before encountering May or Brendan in Rustboro City, if the player [[Black out|blacks out]] without ever visiting the [[Pokémon Center]] in Rustboro City (which causes the player character to rush to [[Petalburg City]]'s Pokémon Center instead), the encounter and optional battle take place in {{rt|104|Hoenn}} in front of [[Mr. Briney]]'s house instead. | |||
* May's teams in Emerald vary slightly from Brendan's teams: | |||
** When battled in either [[Rustboro City]] or {{rt|104|Hoenn}}, May (if the player chose {{p|Torchic}}) uses a {{p|Torkoal}}, which is not used in future battles; Brendan uses a {{p|Slugma}} instead. | |||
** When battled on {{rt|119|Hoenn}}, May (if the player chose {{p|Mudkip}}) uses a {{p|Lombre}}, which was not used in prior nor future battles; Brendan uses a {{p|Pelipper}} instead. | |||
* May bears a striking resemblance towards [[Irida]], but the exact relationship between the two is unknown. | |||
