May's Beautifly (Japanese: ハルカのアゲハント Haruka's Agehunt) was the second Pokémon acquired by May in her travels through Hoenn, and the first she ever caught in the wild. Its Japanese voice actress is 白石涼子 Ryoko Shiraishi and its English voice actresses are Rachael Lillis (Template:4Kids dub) and Michele Knotz (TPCi dub).

History

While watching a Rustboro City Pokémon Contest in All Things Bright and Beautifly, May saw a trainer's Beautifly perform and decided that she wanted one. Her wish came true in the following episode, and May caught a Wurmple in the episode All in a Day's Wurmple, as did Jessie. Several episodes later, in Which Wurmple's Which?, both Wurmple were temporarily switched, but were returned to their proper trainers by the episode's end. In the episode A Corphish Out of Water, May's Wurmple evolved into Silcoon while Jessie's evolved into Cascoon; Jessie believed hers was a Silcoon as well. Four episodes later, in Seeing is Believing, Jessie's Cascoon evolved into Dustox, while May's Silcoon evolved into Beautifly.

In the episode That's Just Swellow, May used Beautifly as her Pokémon in a PokéRinger competition. James, using Dustox, defeated Beautifly in the competition, but Dustox eventually succumbed to a last-minute defeat when Ash's Taillow evolved into a Swellow.

Before heading off to the Battle Frontier, May left her Beautifly at her home in Petalburg City. It returned temporarily in The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing, and again, assumed permanently, in A Full Course Tag Battle!.

Beautifly returned in the Wallace Cup, defeating Zoey's Glameow.

Personality

As a Wurmple, it was very greedy. It would gorge itself on food and then fall asleep, unlike Jessie's more sedate and well-behaved Wurmple. When it evolved to both its latter stages, however, it became more calm and mellow.

The fact that May's Beautifly was the only one of her Pokémon which enjoyed her first Pokéblocks which she made (that were LiteBlue) suggests that May's Beautifly enjoys bitter Pokéblock. This therefore suggests that its nature is either Calm, Careful, Sassy or Gentle. Though, judging from its calm and mellow demeanor which it exhibits as a Beautifly, this may mean that May's Beautifly has a Calm nature.
