When May first left her home, she was only interested in the traveling aspect of a [[Pokémon journey]]. This sparked one of May's most memorable quirks in Hoenn, "May's Expeditions". Starting from ''[[AG025|A Mudkip Mission]]'', May would occasionally make a camera lens with her fingers, pretending she was the host of a traveling show.

As mentioned, May also enjoys making [[Pokéblock]]. She first learned about making Pokéblock in the episode ''[[AG090|Pokéblock, Stock and Berry]]'' when she met {{ho|Kelly}}. She learned that Kelly's mother owned a Pokéblock shop, and May was curious about it. Kelly then taught her how to use a [[Berry Blender]]. May's first attempt of making a Pokéblock was not successful, but that didn't stop her from trying. In the episode ''[[AG117|Berry, Berry Interesting]]'', May continued to make Pokéblock, calling the result '''"May's Purple Surprise"'''. However, only [[May's Munchlax]] had taken a liking to it. Later on, {{an|Professor Oak}} had created a Pokéblock for May, which May calls '''"May's Pink Surprise"''', that is specially made for Munchlax. May uses it to stop her Munchlax from causing too much trouble on many occasions.

In ''[[AG121|Hi Ho Silver Wind!]]'', May revealed that she stayed in contact with many of the friends she made through competing in Pokémon Contests, using emails, phone calls and letters. This included [[Kelly (Hoenn)|Kelly]], [[Savannah]], [[Sandra]], [[Timmy Grimm|Timmy]], [[Dr. Abby]] and [[Janet]]. May also said that being friends with the people she met throughout her journey, and knowing they were cheering for her, gave her the confidence to overcome any nervousness she could face.
