This drawing is based on a doodle I made while falling asleep, heavily revisited digitally.
I wanted to emphasize May's strength as shown in the concept artworks from the Generation 3 games, as someone who bikes seriously and wears the outfit to match. I also wanted to include a pointy tooth like May's manga-counterpart Sapphire.
For the Pokémon, I included some of my favorites that I personally consider quintessential to Generation 3, like Gulpin, and a Wingull that may or may not be Mr. Briney's pet Peeko. Torchic is also often associated with May, and, in the manga, Sapphire was friends with a Minun.
