He heads home

Ash decided to head to his home in Pallet Town.

"Come on, Seel!" Ash called to Misty. "Let's go!"

"Seel! Seel!" Misty responded as she followed her 'Trainer' to his home.

Ash was greeted by his mother, Delia Ketchum, giving him a big hug.

"Ash! You're home!" she said. "And I see you brought Seel too."

"Hey, Mom,"Ash said as he discreetly placed a note on her back.
