May's Wartortle (Japanese: ハルカのカメール Haruka's Kameil) was the sixth Pokémon obtained by May.
History
Kanto Battle Frontier
After leaving her Beautifly and her Skitty in Hoenn, she met up with Ash in Pallet Town, where one of Professor Oak's Squirtle took a liking to her. When it did not want to go in Professor Oak's Poké Ball, he allowed it to travel with May, so it went in her Poké Ball instead.
May quickly introduced it to Pokémon Contests, where it adapted well. It was first used in the battle rounds of the Saffron City Pokémon Contest, defeating Harley's Ariados, which was its first major accomplishment on May's team. It also managed to defeat Drew's Flygon in the Kanto Grand Festival with the help of May's Combusken, yet another of its many feats.
Squirtle was used for the Wisteria town contest in Harley Rides Again where it gave a great preformance allowing May to compete in the battle rounds.
Sinnoh
It was assumed that this Pokémon continued to remain on May's team, traveling with her through Johto. Squirtle evolved in time to enter the Wallace Cup with May in Staging a Heroes' Welcome! May used Wartortle in the appeals round.
Personality and characteristics
May and her Wartortle during the Wallace Cup
May's Squirtle is distinct from Ash's Squirtle, as it is much younger and smaller, mainly because it was intended to be a starter Pokémon. Squirtle started out relatively shy and was a bit of a crybaby. It has considerably grown since its first appearance, crying less and competing in more Contests. As a Wartortle, it showed a more boisterous and fun-loving attitude, no signs of the tears that defined it as a Squirtle.
