In ''[[AG077|A Fan with a Plan]]'', Drew was revealed to own a {{p|Masquerain}}. He was seen practicing with it, and, in the following episode, he used it to defeat [[Savannah]]'s {{p|Lairon}} in the finals of the [[Rubello Town]] Pokémon Contest. This victory gave Drew his fourth Ribbon.

Drew appeared again in ''[[AG113|Who, What, When, Where, Wynaut?]]'', where it was revealed that he had obtained his fifth Ribbon. When May showed him her four Ribbons, he told her that there was only one more Contest to be held before the [[Grand Festival]], and criticized her for relying on luck and for not having strategies. May then challenged him to a battle, which was interrupted by Team Rocket's attempt to steal {{AP|Pikachu}}. Accidentally, Drew was pulled into Team Rocket's submarine along with the rest of the {{ashfr|group}}. When the submarine exploded, the entire group was blasted into the air. They fell in the [[Mirage Island]], where they met a group of {{p|Wynaut}}.

In ''[[AG123|Rhapsody in Drew]]'', he faced May in the quarter-finals of the competition. Using his Roselia and {{p|Flygon}}, he was able to defeat May, who was using her {{TP|May|Combusken}} and {{TP|May|Skitty}}. He made it all the way to the finals, but lost to Robert, who also beat him in the Slateport Contest.

Like {{Gary}}, Drew is portrayed as being confident, critical, and popular among his supporters, though he is generally not as overly insulting as Gary initially was.

When Drew had participated in his very first Contest, he had lost badly to a strong [[Pokémon Coordinator]] named [[Solidad]]. Solidad said the loss was so heartbreaking that he cried. Though he had suffered a defeat in his first Contest, he endeavored to become a better Coordinator and has succeeded to a good extent. He used to be very prone to nervousness when he started his [[Pokémon journey]].
When Drew competed in his very first [[Pokémon Contest]], he lost badly to a strong [[Pokémon Coordinator]] named [[Solidad]]. Solidad said the loss was so heartbreaking that he cried. Though he had suffered a defeat in his debut, he endeavored to become a better Coordinator and has succeeded to a good extent. Since then, he has kept in touch with Solidad and the two developed a friendship. He feels comfortable talking about other Coordinators with her, but he never discusses his own performances.
 
Drew was very prone to nervousness when he started his [[Pokémon journey]], much like May when he first met her. He used to taunt her and belittle {{cat|May's Pokémon|her Pokémon}} and her skills as a Coordinator. Even though his comments and attitude have angered May, he still provides a helping hand whenever she needs it. He also congratulates May when credit is due, occasionally giving her a rose.


He used to taunt May when he first met her because she used to be like him when he first started out. Even though his comments and attitude may have angered May, he still provides a helping hand whenever she needs it.
Drew raises his Pokémon so that they are able to showcase their maximum potential in Pokémon Contests. He is shown to {{pkmn|groomer|groom}} them and treat them well, praising them for their efforts even when they do not succeed. However, when he feels that his Pokémon are not giving it their all, he will scold them. This was shown in ''[[AG181|Thinning the Hoard!]]'' when he became angry at {{p|Absol}} for what he considered to be a lackluster performance.

Drew has a role in the [[Ash & Pikachu]] {{pkmn|manga}}. Unlike his anime counterpart, he is more flamboyant and arrogant. He also has a tendency to break into dance regularly.
Drew appears in ''[[SP21|The Enchanting Pokémon Soul!]]'' of the [[Ash and Pikachu]] {{pkmn|manga}}. Unlike his anime counterpart, Drew was more flamboyant and arrogant.
 
He appeared in ''[[SP21|The Enchanting Pokémon Soul!]]'', in which he insulted {{an|May}} while she was training her {{TP|May|Beautifly}}. He claimed that May wasn't good in [[Pokémon Contest]] and this made May frustrated. However, Drew did not seem to care.


While {{an|May}} was training her {{TP|May|Beautifly}}, Drew did a little dance and insulted her by claiming that she isn't good in Pokémon Contests. This made May frustrated but Drew shrugged it off and continued his dance. During the Contest, Drew sent out {{TP|Drew|Roselia}} and the [[appeal]] gave him a fantastic score, higher than May's. During the [[Contest Battle|Battle Round]], Drew was paired up against May. Despite May trying her best and her Beautifly having the type advantage, Drew was able to defeat her. He went to challenge {{ho|Robert}} and his {{p|Milotic}}, and lost despite the type advantage. After the loss, Drew shrugged it off and promised to be better in the next Pokémon Contest and went off, motivating May to do the same.
