Well, there's more to life than simply being a Pokémon Master...

Endorsement money is rarely enough to make a decent living; anyone got any figures for this event? And I doubt he would actually even get airfares paid to the Boston event unless he finds sponsorship somehow.

What? Everyone (in Japan) knows, if you're a game fan, you're a burden-on-society NEET with an Internet addiction, locked in his apartment to devote 20 hours a day to it!
Are you saying the mom was wrong??

His hotel and plane trip are paid for by The Pokemon Company since he won the Japan National Championship.

We're probably not gonna expect a similar response by Delia should Ash get to fulfill the aim to be a Pokemon Master.
