Description May is a cheerful girl and the daughter of Professor Birch from the Hoenn region. She’s great at taking care of others and loves cute Pokémon and conducting fieldwork.

May (Japanese: ハルカ Haruka) is a Pokémon Trainer in Pokémon Masters EX, based on the character of the same name in the core series games. She forms a sync pair with Mudkip and its evolved forms Marshtomp and Swampert, with Swampert being capable of Mega Evolving. The sync pair can be obtained through the sync pair scout, starting from January 14, 2021.

May is also available in her spring attire partnered alongside Lopunny, which is capable of Mega Evolving. The pair could be obtained through a limited-time seasonal sync pair scout and will be first available on April 2, 2021.

Mudkip → Marshtomp → Swampert

Mudkip can evolve into Marshtomp once it has reached level 30 through its Sync Pair Story Mudkip's Evolution, and then into Swampert once it has reached level 45 through its Sync Pair Story Marshtomp's Evolution.
