Regular speech " Pikachu thunderbolt!"

Aura/ bond Speech "Master let me Battle"

Arceus or Pokespeech "Where is the ketchup?"

"Well, that went good what'cha think buddy?" Ash asked Pikachu as they started the walk to his home "Pika pi pi pika" Pikachu said in a happy tone. "yeah I agree, though something tells me Lucario is going to pretty much demand he comes with us wherever we go" Ash say with a sigh, it not that he didn't want to in all honesty taking Lucario with him to their next location made him think that he should start rotating all his pokemon.

Keep them from getting rusty granted they still train their hearts out, but there is nothing like training with them in person to strengthen the bond they have. "Maybe I should start bringing everyone on the next adventure you know, switching out and helping them push their limits," Ash said to Pikachu as if to ask if it would be a good idea. "Chu" Pikachu nodded to his trainer, "yeah that sounds good plus they can help train whatever Pokemon I catch while on the road as well as let them see a new region and not just the Professor's oversized backyard." "Pikaaa" Pikachu laughs at the comment about the ranch his Pokemon brethren and sisters stay at.

As their home comes into view Ash spots his mom's psychic/fairy-type Pokemon Mr. Mime watering the flowers in the garden. "Hey, Mimey!" Ash says waving at the Pokemon, a few days ago Professor Cerise transferred him back to Professor Oak to give to his Mom. "Mime Mime," the mime Pokemon says while also waving back. "Is Mom inside or at the Pallet House?" Mr. Mime points with his thumb behind him signifying she's inside the house. "thanks Mimey don't work to hard" "Mr. Mime" Ash walks up and opens the door and says in his loudest inside voice "MOM I'M HOME!" from around the corner comes woman stood about 5'7'' with brown hair amber eyes in her mid-30s looking at her son with the brightest smile on her face.

"Oh Ash you're home" Delia exclaimed pulling her sun into his second bone-crushing hug of the day, causing Pikachu to jump from Ash's shoulder to the back of the couch. Ash taps on his mom's shoulder says in an audible gasp "Mom... air" Delia releases the man and says "oh sorry Ash" letting go of her son to get a good look at him from head to toe "my little man is growing up so fast and everyday I become even more prouder than I was the day before" Delia said with teary eyes threating to spill.

Ash become a little flushed he looked at his shoes not excalty knowing what to say other than "thanks Mom" looking back up at her with a proud smile plastered across his face. "Pika pi" Pikachu exclaimed in happiness of the situation and of being home. He hopped from the couch up to Delia's shoulder and nuzzled her with his red cheeks. "Its wonderful to see you to Pikachu" Delia said happily. "WHO'S THERE DELIA?" said a voice from the kitchen " who's here Mom?" Ash asked puzzled.

Delia got visibly uncomfortable and started shifting from side to side. Ash could see that she was debating on what to say. "Um, Ash why don't you come with me to the kitchen there are some people I'd like you to meet. Ash and Pikachu looked at each other still puzzled at the situation, so they shrugged and said "Alright I'm hungry anyway and Pikachu wants some ketchup" Delia nodded turning around to head to the kitchen. Pikachu jumped to reclaim his spot on Ash's shoulder they followed his Mom.

Once he reached the kitchen he noticed 4 people at the dining table two looked to be his Mom's age the other two were about his.

"Sorry about that everyone, I had to answer the door. So this is Ash" Delia introduced him to the people in the room. He and Pikachu smiled and waved at them. "Hello it's nice to meet you all"

"My Arceus he's grown so much and into a fine young man at that!!!" a woman with ocean blue eyes and brown hair wearing a white hat with a pokeball design on it. "Right!! It seems like only yesterday we saw him running around shirtless throwing a toy pokeball at anything and everything trying to catch it" The other woman said, she had green eyes that stuck out from her blonde hair in a ponytail she just so happened to have a Pikachu sitting in front of her.
