"Insanity is hereditary. You get it from your kids."
Ash's mother, her first name is Deliah. She only appears in a few episodes.
She occasionally refers to Ash's father, who is never seen but is also a POKéMON trainer. She thinks that his father would be proud of him, as she is. She cares about her son a lot, allowing him to leave on his POKéMON journey and giving him freedom, even though she misses him.
She is a good cook, and housekeeper, and her POKéMON is a Mr Mime who helps her with the housework. A wild Mr Mime wandered into her house, and she mistook it for her son (long story) and gave it a meal. When the real Ash returned, she realised that the Mr Mime was a real Mr Mime, but it liked her (probably 'cos of the food ^_^.) and stayed with her. She calls it Mr Mimie.
Another trait is that she is also a terrible taskmaster; Ash tries to avoid her when she is cleaning or gardening, as she is sure to ask a lot of him. She is a fairly typical sort of mother; cries when she's proud of Ash, scolds him in front of his friends, and has a weird tendency to constantly remind him to change his underwear. (I don't wanna know....)
In some ways, Mr Mimie has taken the place of Ash.
