''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/1085450/1/Lost Lost]]'' is a ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'' fanfic from 2002 by Ilex the Elder exploring the idea of how Delia felt upon learning of the St. Anne incident from "Battle Abroad The St. Anne". Like many of Ilex the Elder's fics, there is an Oak/Delia angle to the story, but romance is not the main driving point of the narrative.

Like many of Ilex the Elder's fics, there is an Oak/Delia angle to the story, but romance is not the main driving point of the narrative.
The story starts with Delia getting a call from Officer Jenny that there's been an accident on the ship her son was sailing on. There were no survivors.
''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/1107002/1/Lost-Samuel-s-POV Lost: Samuel's POV]]'' is a PerspectiveFlip of the story from Professor Oak's POV.

!!''Lost'' provides examples of:
* BroadStrokes: The actual anime implies that Delia never ''learned'' of the accident. She never brings it up. ''Lost'' goes with the interpretation that she did.
* ChildrenAreInnocent: Upon learning Brock is alive, one of his siblings asks "Daddy said you were in Heaven with Mommy – how'd you get back so fast?"
* DarkFic: The anime itself glosses over the St. Anne incident, but ''Lost'' explores what it could have been Delia's reaction to it.
* DeathByAdaptation: The fic predates Brock's mother being introduced in the anime, and the English dub originally stated she was deceased, so she's deceased in this fic.
* DisappearedDad: Ash's father doesn't realize he has a son. Delia wants to keep it that way since he's [[spoiler:the leader of Team Rocket]]. So, Delia ran to Pallet Town and made up a story about how she had a husband and that he's away on a journey.
* DrivenToSuicide:
** Delia contemplates drinking an entire bottle of the tranquilizers she was prescribed. Oak notices this and takes the bottle away.
** Professor Oak has a scar on his wrist from when he tried to kill himself after his son died.
* MissingMom: Brock's mother is deceased.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: ''Lost'' uses the normal fanon surnames for the characters: Misty Waterflower, Brock Slate, James Morgan, and Jessie Rochester.
* OutlivingOnesOffspring: The story handles this topic. Delia has seemingly lost her only child and must deal with the grief. Professor Oak ''did'' lose a child, his son specifically, and was left to raise his two grandkids as a result.
* ParentalAbandonment:
** Blue's parents died in a car crash when he was younger.
** Implied with Misty. Her sisters are the only family members to go to her memorial.
* RaisedByGrandparents: Gary and his sister May were raised by their paternal grandfather after their parents died.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: Ash's dad is [[spoiler:Giovanni]]. He doesn't realize Ash is his son [[spoiler:until Delia tells him when he appears at the memorial]].
* WhamLine: In chapter 3, Delia reveals who Ash's dad actually is:
-->'''Delia''': "When I was younger, I got into quite a bit of trouble. I feel in love with an older man who I later learned wasn't all he said he was. When I discovered that he was doing some things – some pretty bad things – I decided to leave him."
