>>57652570Solrock mexican episode!
A village is going through a drought, and the local superstitious grandma suspects it's because of a nearby wild Solrock! Her granddaughter believes there's a more logical explanation to it, so our girl helps her find the answer!
It was TR>>57652585More like she's being mishandled a lot.
May is a rookie trainer and coordinator. She's given a rival that's leagues above her. Similar to Gary being leagues above Ash I guess? This rival easily defeats her on her first contest, so one would expect this rival to not appear for a while until our girl has made some progress on her own, like with Gary and Ash, but no. Drew appears the very next contest, defeats Ash in a battle, and then... JOBS to a COTD?!? Then May defeats that COTD despite that being her 2nd ever contest and having little to no battle experience at that point either?!? And now that happens again on her 3rd contest but with some changes, Drew jobs to COTD -> Ash almost jobs to COTD -> May defeats COTD.
It all would make sense if May was given lots of focus episodes with Ash training her or her practicing/training on her own or with other trainers, but then again, Ash / Brock mentoring is mostly passive and all of her training moments are about the performances. About that, want to know something funny? The performances of her 2nd and 3rd contest are 90% skipped!
It would also make sense if the narrative was now changed to May being an innate coordinator genius, but that isn't the case. Drew is still smug towards her. She's still portrayed as somewhat of a rookie, etc.
