>>34455621>If May is so popular, why she didn't appear in XY when ORAS came out.She did appeared in ORAS animated promo, she didn't appear actual because Yajima wanted to use ORAS to glorify his Alain.
Plus, if May appeared in XY then she would end Amourshipping in just one episode.
>Why would the writers make Advance canon when Contestshipping is one of the most popular pairing and one of the reasons why May popular?Why would writers make Amourshipping and Aureliashipping canon when Pokeshipping and Pearlshipping are one of the most popular shipping ? Furthermore, May is not popular because of Contestshipping! She got popular way way before Drew even appeared in the show due to her character.
May was popular because of her character design, diverse personality, development, growth, battling skill, group chemistry and overall influence in the show.
Contestshipping is just something Pokeshipper supported after they realized that May is just way better then Misty and they need someone like Drew to get her out of Pokeshipping's way.
Even Aureliashipper and Amourshipper doing the exactly the same thing because they know that May is way too better then Lillie and Serena.
