>>58527962ORAS May is a fine May variant on her own. Like you've mentioned, it's this retconning that's bothersome. I dunno if there's the same sentiment for Gen1 and 2, as their remakes also changed some character designs, with the newer ones being the canon representative ones (e.g. old and new Red, Gold and Ethan). At least it isn't retconned out of existence, as USUM acknowledged Archie and Maxie's RSE designs.
>also because that version is almost as flat as DawnI beg to differ, it really depends on the medium. RS May wouldn't be seen as busty if it wasn't for the anime.
