You know, because of Pokemon Go there’s a real possibility that somewhere out there some deadbeat dad actually did tell his kids “be right back, going to catch some Pokemon” and never came back.

Says Ash, “Because he said he was going to become a Pokémon Trainer, he left on a journey and hasn’t come back home since. Eventually, our paths might cross!”

“My actual name is...” *random train interception * “... but my friends call me Ash’s mom!”

The idea that Ash’s mom and Oak had a thing in the past is tenuous. The idea that they currently do is reasonable enough though. They’re both lonely single people in a very small town.

My name is Delia, too.

Honestly, I was thinking divorce. Like, they got divorced too early for Ash to remember, and she told him “Oh, uh, he’s training” instead of “We split and he lives on the other side of the country now.”

Which he never would since he doesn’t grow up anyway.

Yeah I believe she’s had a real name since the third movie, which is the best of the Pokemon movies and is basically a child-friendly version of Silent Hill.

“Because he said he was going to become a Pokémon Trainer, he left on a journey and hasn’t come back home since. Eventually, our paths might cross!”

That sounds like something a mother would tell her kid to avoid telling them the harsh reality that their father is dead. It leaves them hope that he’s out there…

She’s a single mom in a small town with absolutely nothing to do since her son is running around the world catching Pokemon, and she doesn’t do any chores around the house since she has Mr. Mime with her, so of course she going to be banging Oak on the side.

I’m pretty sure that he’s just a Milfhunter, and not his dad. That’d be Giovanni, since we’re not worthy enough of having Silver be in the official anime. It was neat seeing him in Generations, though.

Every season a new professor..

Wait, Ash’s mom has a name?! And it’s not “Ash’s Mom”?

Some say she started when she was 20 and still hasn’t done all the side quests!

Keys aren’t a magical product that comes out of thin air. Publishers generate license keys and deliver them (in large batches) to platform sellers.

EIGHT... YEARS... LATER...

this seems like a problem that shouldn’t exist for a downloadable game...

I had no idea they could run out of game keys learn something new every day.
