Delia Ketchum

Delia Ketchum, also known as Mrs. Ketchum, is a character appearing in the anime series and the mother of Ash Ketchum. Delia is a slender woman with fair skin and brown eyes. In contrast to her son (who has messy and spiky black hair), Delia has smooth brown hair that she commonly keeps in a ponytail with a green scrunchie. She usually wears a pink short-sleeved jacket with a yellow undershirt, a purple skirt, and light green shoes, though her outfits vary. Starting with the Sun and Moon series, Delia's skirt is light blue with an indigo stripe and the color of her shoes were changed to white. When doing housework, Delia wears a light yellow T-shirt, a pink apron, blue jeans (later changed to a green dress), and orange shoes. She sometimes wears a straw hat and the purple skirt from her usual outfit, however. When she watched Ash compete in the Indigo and Johto Leagues, Delia wore a blue dress with a white short-sleeved jacket, along with matching shoes. During her vacation in Alola, she wore an orange strapless dress with pink circles on the chest, a pink belt with a gold buckle around her waist, a pink flower, and white frills. She also wore a white coat over her dress, along with a matching sun hat and pink sandals. When sleeping, Delia wears yellow pajamas. Delia is a very kind, smart, loving and caring woman, but when she's mad, she's very vocal about it. She knows her son's psychology and personality very well and is very, very proud of him as a true hero able to overcome near any obstacle on the way to fulfilling his cherished dream. She rarely battles other Pokémon but she made an exception in SS004: Showdown at the Oak Corral where Butch and Cassidy tried to steal Poké Balls belonging to Ash and other trainers. She, Professor Oak and Tracey stopped them with a Pokémon battle. After Scyther couldn't battle anymore, Delia sent Mimey to battle Cassidy's Houndour who was about to use its Bite attack. Delia had Mimey use his Double Slap on it.
