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. Uniquely for one of {{Ash}}'s {{ashfr|friends}}, May originally didn't like Pokémon, due to the [[AG103|trauma]] of being swarmed by a group of {{p|Tentacool}} when she was little. However, after seeing Ash risking his life to save his {{AP|Pikachu}} on the day they [[AG001|met]] and later upon forming close bonds with her first two Pokémon, {{TP|May|Torchic}} and {{TP|May|Wurmple}}, May grew to care about Pokémon, which helped her overcome her dislike and fear of them. | When May first left her home, she was only interested in the traveling aspect of a [[Pokémon journey]].

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 her {{TP|May|Munchlax}} had taken a liking to it. Later on, {{an|Professor Oak}} had created a Pokéblock recipe for May, which May calls '''"May's Pink Surprise"''', that is specially made for Munchlax, similarly to the recipe used to feed [[Ash's Snorlax]]. May uses it to stop her Munchlax from causing too much trouble on many occasions. | As mentioned, May also enjoys making [[Pokéblock]].
