Pokemon Z?

I think it's funny that you mention that, because like, now that I think about it... despite making a semi-big deal about that whole racer thing, she kind of didn't do that much compared to the moms of Gen IV and V!

The mother of BW's hero explicitly mentions going on a journey of her own, and the mother of BW2's hero used to work at a Pokemon Center and even remarks on knowing the BW hero's mom, iirc. And Johanna, the Gen IV mom, even has her own Pokemon whom she enters into Master Rank Pokemon Contests! Like, she actually LEAVES THE HOUSE.

Heck, even Gen II mum bought you stuff from time to time...

She kept buying me berries when I needed dolls though.
Man, its weird thinking that they used to just be "berries" and not much else.
