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.
History
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, so she wanted to catch it. May threw a Poké Ball at it but Munchlax ate the Poké Ball. It then activated from inside Munchlax, and it was caught.
Munchlax seemed to take a liking to Max, spending a lot of time with him. Munchlax was also the only one of May's Pokémon that was not used in her first Grand Festival. During the festival when Skitty used Assist to show off all the moves of May's team, one of the moves it used was a Solarbeam, hinting it may have been Munchlax's.
Munchlax was one of the Pokémon May took with her when she traveled through the Kanto region. In A Real Cleffa Hanger, Munchlax was shown to know Metronome. In On Cloud Arcanine, after using it to use ExtremeSpeed, Munchlax quickly ate the Pecha Berries on the trees instead of attacking the Arcanine it was supposed to. In May's Egg-Cellent Adventure, Munchlax took part in its first battle against Nicolette's Vileplume, where it was revealed to know Focus Punch and Solarbeam.
May entered Munchlax in a Contest in Harley Rides Again. It made it to the final round where it was up against Harley's Octillery. It put up a good fight before it eventually lost.
Munchlax continued traveling with May when she left to compete in the contests in Johto, and stayed with her when she returned to participate the Wallace Cup in A Full Course Tag Battle!.
