May's Munchlax (Japanese: ハルカのゴンベ Haruka's Gonbe) was the fifth Pokémon caught by May during her travels through Hoenn, making her the first main character to catch a Generation IV Pokémon. Its voice actress in Japanese is 佐藤智恵 Chie Satō, and its English voice actor is unknown.

May caught Munchlax in the episode Berry Berry Interesting. Munchlax was the only Pokémon May could find that liked her custom PokéBlocks, May's Purple Surprise, ironically named in Japanese as Haruka's Delicious, so she was determined to catch it. After being accused of eating a group of children's PokéBlocks and berries, it eventually did after the real perpetrators, Team Rocket, were caught. May threw a Poké Ball while it was distracted, but Munchlax noticed and ate the Poké Ball; seconds later, the Poké Ball activated from inside Munchlax, and it was caught. In Less is Morrison, May invented May's Pink Surprise (Haruka's Delicious 2), which when fed to Munchlax renders it bloated and satiated.
