>>53977713Although my math-doing originally started with me wanting to compare Serena and May's trajectories, I do think May and Dawn's are a bit nicer to see side-by-side. May obviously starts a lot later than Dawn, but after catching up a bit, they stay roughly 15-20 episodes apart until May's fifth ribbon, showing a consistent pacing between AG and DP. Of course, now we're at the point where comparisons will be less interesting. Assuming Dawn only does the Grand Festival from here on out, she'll have 11 (+1 unofficial one) to May's 15 (10 wins, 2 Grand Festivals, and 3 losses over Hoenn and Kanto) (+1 unofficial one against Ash). It doesn't feel like May had that many more, but while she started later, I'm guessing she also went a lot later, and Battle Frontier is just ridiculously fast paced comparatively.
