'''Drew''' (Japanese: '''シュウ''' ''Shū'') is a [[Pokémon Coordinator]] from [[LaRousse City]] and [[May|May’s]] greatest rival. May and her friends first met him while she was practicing with her [[May's Beautifly|Beautifly]] on the beach near [[Slateport City]] in ''[[AG033|Now that's Flower Power!]]''. Like [[Ash|Ash’s]] main rival, [[Gary]], Drew is portrayed as being confident, critical, and popular among his supporters, though generally not as overtly insulting as Gary initially was. However, also like Gary, he is not a villain by any means, despite how his comments and attitude may have angered May and her friends. His first match against May pitted her [[May's Torchic|Torchic]] against his {{p|Roselia}}, only to have it end when [[Team Rocket]] interfered. Drew’s skills have been a continuing inspiration for May to better herself as a coordinator, so much so that seeing a different Roselia will remind May of her rivalry. His japanese voice actress is 斎賀みつき ''[[Mitsuki Saiga]]'' and his brazilian voice actors are [[Wagner Fagundes]] ([[AG033]]-[[AG035]]) and [[Thiago Longo]] ([[AG050]]-present).
'''Drew''' (Japanese: '''シュウ''' ''Shū'') is a [[Pokémon Coordinator]] from [[LaRousse City]] and [[May|May’s]] greatest rival. Because of his green hair and recurring appearances in the anime, some fans believe Drew to be the anime interpretation of the video game character [[Wally]]. He is voiced by 斎賀みつき ''Mitsuki Saiga'' in Japanese.


In Drew’s showing at the Slateport City Contest in ''[[AG035|Win, Lose or Drew!]]'', he and his Roselia defeat May and Beautifly, but go on to lose to Robert and his {{p|Milotic}}. Drew shows up again for the [[Fallarbor |Fallarbor Contest]] in ''[[AG050|Pros and Con Artists!]]'', where May learns that he has three contest ribbons. Before the Fallarbor Contest begins, Drew has his first battle against Ash, pitting his Roselia against [[Ash's Swellow|Ash's Taillow]]. During the contest, however, he loses to Grace and her {{p|Medicham}}. Following the contest, Drew congratulates the winner, May, by giving her a rose. The gesture (which is repeated in later encounters) is seen by some fans to be a hint towards a [[ContestShipping|romantic relationship]] between the two. Drew claims that the roses are for May's [[Beautifly]], but the excuse seems to become more cursory each time.
=History=
He was able to make it to the finals in his first [[Pokémon Contest]] with his {{p|Roselia}}, but was ultimately beaten by [[Saori]]. This was his first defeat, and caused him to burst into tears. The two have since become friends.

In ''[[AG077|A Fan with a Plan]]'', Drew is mobbed by the M.F.P. (Mothers for Pokémon) fan club at the Rubello Town [[Pokémon Center]]. Before the contest, May spots Drew practicing outside with his new Pokémon, {{p|Masquerain}}. May introduces Drew to her latest Pokémon, [[May's Bulbasaur|Bulbasaur]]. Masquerain is shown to be a Pokémon well-suited for contest battling, while Bulbasaur, though rare in [[Hoenn]], embarrasses May with its lack of discipline. Drew wins his fourth ribbon in ''[[AG078|Cruisin' for a Losin']]'' using his Roselia in the first round, and his Masquerain to defeat Sunny’s {{p|Girafarig}} and Savannah’s {{p|Lairon}}.
