While assisting [[Janet]] in a [[Rustboro City]] [[Pokémon Contest]] in ''[[AG013|All Things Bright and Beautifly]]'', May watched Janet's Beautifly perform and decided that she wanted one for herself. In the next episode, ''[[AG014|All in a Day's Wurmple]]'', May caught a Wurmple; her first Pokémon, with the help of [[Forrest Franklin]] and her {{TP|May|Torchic}}. At the end of the day May introduced her new friend to the rest of the family and when {{an|Brock}} presents lunch, Wurmple quickly eats everyone’s food, before falling sound asleep, leaving everyone stunned.

While assisting [[Janet]] in a [[Rustboro City]] [[Pokémon Contest]] in ''[[AG013|All Things Bright and Beautifly!]]'', May watched Janet's Beautifly perform and decided that she wanted one for herself. In the next episode, ''[[AG014|All in a Day's Wurmple]]'', May caught a Wurmple; her first Pokémon, with the help of [[Forrest Franklin]] and her {{TP|May|Torchic}}. At the end of the day May introduced her new friend to the rest of the family and when {{an|Brock}} presents lunch, Wurmple quickly eats everyone’s food, before falling sound asleep, leaving everyone stunned.   
In ''[[AG021|Which Wurmple's Which?]]'', Wurmple’s Trainer, May argued with [[Jessie]] over which one of them had the better Wurmple. After [[Max]] concluded that the two Wurmple are exactly the same, they begin battling, but [[Team Rocket trio|Team Rocket]] were sent blasting off by {{AP|Pikachu}}. May soon realized that she has Jessie’s Wurmple and that she has hers. While with Team Rocket, Wurmple caused trouble for them by eating their little food, proving to be far more gluttonous than Jessie’s Wurmple. Eventually, Wurmple was handed back to May in exchange for Jessie’s Wurmple.

==Personality and characteristics==
As a Wurmple, it would gorge itself on food and then fall asleep, unlike Jessie's more sedate and well-behaved Wurmple. It was quite a lazy little {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. When it evolved to both its latter stages, however, it became more calm and mellow. As a Beautifly, it often likes to sit atop May's head.
