I don't recall one occasion where she lost. Her rivals fell to her so often it was hard to believe they were ever on her level.
You know the reason why Ash always loses the first time against a Gym leader? Why he always loses at the Pokemon League? It's to show that he still has training to do, room to grow, and opponents to overcome.
May, meanwhile, steamrolled through her contests so handily that the attempts to make her more grounded by having her be nervous didn't make sense.
When Dawn lost, it was believable because it was made clear that she wasn't going to wreck house and demolish her competition from then on. When May lost, it was because she had gotten cocky and over relied on her Skitty's Assist move, and then she never lost again.
I loathed May. And it wasn't for the vapid reason of replacing Misty (Who I also hated).
Remember. I hate for all the right reasons.

You know why her Torchic evolved? Because she didn't care about him anymore. She stopped using him altogether because he was an airhead, so she moved to Beautifly and Skitty for battles and contests. So Torchic's jealousy led him to become a Combusken just to earn May's attention again.
She was a terrible trainer and an even worse person, constantly taunting Max's worth because he's too young to be a trainer, refusing to listen to advice, and overall being presented as incredibly immature. When Ash was shown as being an immature brat, the show highlighted it and made sure he got his comeuppance. When May was shown being an immature brat, we were supposed to feel sorry for her and side with her opinion, and then she scores the win she didn't deserve, and then she gets praise from the opponent she beat for "Being such an amazing trainer."
Here's a really annoying female lead for you: Ivy.
I loathe Ivy. A fiery passion boils and burns whenever my hatred for her is realized. She should never have come into existence. Ivy is an annoying little excuse for a character, constantly denigrating Ash with the insult of, "You're such a kid," despite the fact that she is incredibly immature herself. Everything about her is annoying: her character, her personality, her voice, everything.
