ContestShipping

Involves: Drew and May

Reaction: Uh...it's a ship because they're both Contest Coordinators. No duh.

I cannot keep up with this pretending to be uninterested façade.

I F**KING LOVE THIS SHIP!!! IT'S SO F**KING AWESOME!!!!

Points For: Since this is getting the OTP bias, I will enumerate general and then specific points. First, the general ones. Although Drew started out telling May that she has no skills, they've developed a rivalry, and Drew gained respect for May. I mean...Brianna did say May is the only female coordinator Drew has respect for. Drew has also been helpful in May's development as a coordinator since he made May realize a lot of things. He also seems interested in watching her grow, and MAYBE something else developed off of that. And oh yeah...roses. The freaking roses. Drew somehow convinces May to go to Johto. And since May went to Johto, no doubt that they still saw each other even after their run in the show is kinda done (even though I want them back). We, however, have no idea what happens, so that's we have fanfiction.

Now...for the specific points (The specific points will only be done for this ship because Drew didn't really appear in a lot of episodes. To be specific, he only made major appearances for only 20 episodes. I'm not including in the specifics all the 20 episodes.):

- Now That's Flower Power: Why exactly was Drew watching May practice anyway? Drew also decided to help out Ash and Co against Team Rocket even if they didn't ask for help.

- Win, Lose or Drew: Drew seems amazed by May's first round performance. Also, the first rose.

- Pros and Con Artists: So...Drew gave May another rose. Sorry...I mean Beautifly...but whatever.

- Disaster of Disguise and Disguise Da Limit: So...even though Drew wasn't competing in the contest, he was still watching.

- A Fan with a Plan: May was so freaking amazed about Masquerain.

- Who, What, When, Where, Wynaut?: This whole episode. May saves Drew (with the help of the Wynaut). They kicked TR butt with that double Silver Wind.

- Hi Ho Silver Wind: Hey, look! Another rose! And even Harley is very suspicious.

- Deceit and Assist: Drew really wants to catch Harley in the act of cheating against May. Also, Harley calls Drew her 'annoying little boyfriend.' No one denied.

- Rhapsody in Drew: May realizes things because of Drew, and thus she's a better coordinator. Even her mom thinks that whole scene at the beach was romantic. It's really something if even your mother approves.

- On Cloud Arcanine: In spite of them chasing for the same Arcanine, they decided to work together (and this time without Pikachu intervention) to kick TR's butt.

- Spontaneous Combusken: So...May assumed that the rose was from Drew, when in fact it was Brianna. And even though May introduces the fangirl to Drew, Brianna seems really determined to beat May. That's got to mean something. And I wonder what Roselia said that made Drew act all flustered after May called him, 'Mr. Rose'. Brianna puts May in the hotseat as she suspected that May might just have feelings for Drew. And in the end, why the heck was May blushing hard when Drew left?!

- New Plot, Odd Lot and Going For Choke: Though he has won all his ribbons, Drew decides to watch the Pokémon Contest. Also, he helps Ash and Co stop Harley and TR from messing with May. I mean...if it weren't for Drew, I think Harley and TR would have gotten away with the win. Also, when May found out that Drew was there, she totally ignored Ash who was talking to her at that time.

- May, We Harley Drew'd Ya: So...Solidad says that Drew has been talking about May and only May. She also said that since Drew has been watching May grow as a coordinator, he's gotten feelings for May. WHAT KIND OF FEELINGS?!

- Thinning The Hoard: May got really upset when Drew got mad at her. Harley also thought that that's all it takes to bring May down.

- Channeling The Battlezone: They managed to give a good battle in spite of what happened. Also, they seemed to have made up after that since Drew gave Solidad a rose to give to May. It can't be for Beautifly this time because Beautifly's not even there.

- The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing: Of all people who could cheer up May in her time of sadness, it was Drew. He knew exactly what to do to keep her going again. Again...this whole episode.

Points Against: Well...no ship is perfect. And even if this is my OTP, I still have to give the points against this ship. I would mention about Drew's teasing, but that's not really something against the ship. Also, that has lessened over time. Hmm...maybe the Drew fangirls. Specifically, May did introduce Brianna to Drew even though she was completely aware that she's a fangirl.

I couldn't think of more points against. OTP factor thing.

This was supposed to contain more...but the whole discussion just for Contestshipping has almost as many words as a normal part...so this will be a standalone. Well...not really...but I feel like a discussion like this should be separated from other ships.
