Daisy Oak (Japanese: オーキド・ナナミ Nanami Ōkido) is the older sister of Gary/Blue, and the granddaughter of Professor Oak. She is known as May (Japanese: サツキ Satsuki) in the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga.

In the games

In Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow, as well as in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, Daisy gives the player a Town Map if he or she visits her after receiving a starter Pokémon. She gives free grooming to one of the player's Pokémon in the Generation II games once per day between 3 and 4 PM, and in FireRed and LeafGreen after the player defeats the Elite Four.

Also in FireRed and LeafGreen, Daisy will tell a player how happy their Pokémon are. She's well-known for being adored by all kinds of Pokémon. It is said that when she's around, even the most ferocious Pokémon calm down. Daisy enjoys tea every day, and buys hers from the Celadon Department Store. She's also a champion Pokémon Coordinator, having won the Spring Pokémon Contest some years back.

In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, she gives the player Blue's number so they can call and arrange a rematch with him at the Fighting Dojo in Saffron City. She will only share this once she has given seven massages and been shown one Pokémon with maxed happiness.

Also returning from previous generations, Daisy, still located in her home of Pallet Town, will groom one of the player's Pokémon for free once daily between 3:00 and 4:00 PM. As in Generation II, it will raise a Pokémon's happiness greatly, however, it will also raise the Pokémon's Beauty stat. This is not displayed anywhere in-game, and the Pokémon must be seen from the point of view of Diamond, Pearl, or Platinum to notice. Despite this, Feebas whose Beauty is maxed out this way can evolve into Milotic, unlike in FireRed and LeafGreen, where the Beauty stat did not exist in any shape or form.

As a reference to her enjoyment of tea in Generation III, a large mug of tea sits on her table.

May Oak

She does not appear to exist in the anime, but in the manga adaptation thereof, she is known as May, and Ash has a very obvious and powerful crush on her. In fact, his infatuation and desire to impress her by showing up Gary is one of the primary reasons he becomes a trainer.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

In the Pokémon Adventures manga, Daisy works as Professor Oak's research assistant and is in charge of the Kanto laboratory whenever Professor Oak goes to Johto. She owns a Chansey that her grandfather gave her and a Clefairy she uses for Pokémon Contests. She was also a close friend of Magma Admin Courtney when she was a Coordinator.
