Concept art from Pokémon Gold and Silver

Mom (Japanese: おかあさん mother) is the mother of Ethan, KrisC, or LyraHGSS.

In the Generation II games and HeartGold and SoulSilver, the player's mother informs them that the Pokégear has returned from the repair shop. In Generation II, she then helps set the day of the week and, in non-Japanese and non-Korean releases, set daylight saving time accordingly (except if it's between 11:00 PM and 12:59 AM in-game, in which the game prevents this due to the day of the week changing; she will claim that she lost the instruction booklet for the Pokégear, although not during the initial setup process).

She will save the player's money at their request so that a quarter of the money won from each battle is automatically sent to her, and money can be deposited and withdrawn from her (in HeartGold and SoulSilver, if the player has $999,999 on hand then no additional money earned from battles will be sent to her, contrary to what the end-of-battle dialogue claims). She occasionally buys decorationsGSC, damage-reducing BerriesHGSS, or other items (listed below) with the player's money, then apologizes for spending the money she is saving. Her cooking specialty is the Cinnabar Volcano Burger.

Items purchased

Generation II

After the player wins a Trainer battle, the player's mother may purchase items for them.

When the player's savings reach certain amounts, the player's mother may purchase one of the items below. Each item can only be obtained once.

Trigger Cost Item
$900 $600 Super Potion Super Potion
$4000 $270 Repel Repel
$7000 $600 Super Potion Super Potion
$10000 $1800 Charmander Doll Charmander Doll
$15000 $3000 Moon Stone Moon Stone
$19000 $600 Super Potion Super Potion
$30000 $4800 Clefairy Doll Clefairy Doll
$40000 $900 Hyper Potion Hyper Potion
$50000 $8000 Pikachu Doll Pikachu Doll
$100000 $22800 Big Snorlax Doll Big Snorlax Doll

If the player's mother cannot purchase one of the above items, then she may randomly purchase an item below if the player's savings are an exact multiple of $2300. The target multiple rises each time the player's savings pass or equal the previous target (starting with $2300) and never lowers. This means that if the player's savings increase from $4500 to $4700 after a battle, they will thereafter be unable to trigger one of these items at $4600 even if they make a withdrawal from their savings.

Cost Item
$600 Super Potion Super Potion
$90 Antidote Antidote
$180 Poké Ball Poké Ball
$450 Escape Rope Escape Rope
$500 Great Ball Great Ball
