The player's mother (Japanese: おかあさん mother) is a character in every main series Pokémon game. Although different each time, she will always be the one to see her child off on his or her journey with his or her starter Pokémon.

In the games

In the games, when the player returns to his or her hometown, she will heal his or her party to full health, as there is no Pokémon Center in the town. She will also do several things specific to the games' region.

In the anime

In the anime, each of the main characters which have a player character counterpart have had their mother introduced except for Jimmy and Marina. Unlike the moms in the games, however, all of them lead a moderately more active lifestyle.

Delia, Ash's mom, is shown to travel to most of the Pokémon League competitions that her son takes part in. She also has her own Pokémon, a Mr. Mime, which cleans the house for her.

Caroline, May's mom, is also shown to travel a bit to watch her daughter's competitions in the Grand Festivals. Unlike her game counterpart, however, she lives in Petalburg City. She also seems to have Pokémon; however, they are never shown.

Johanna, Dawn's mom, apparently lives life very similarly to her own game counterpart. She has a Glameow, and was formerly a winner of Sinnoh's Grand Festival.
