I have a whole team of feels I adventure with occasionally.
>Mew, for my mom
She was the perfect mother when I was a child. We were dirt poor after she had multiple battles with cancer, but she tried her best to provide for me and make me happy on her own. Mew was my favorite Pokemon when I was a kid, and as a b-day gift since she couldn't afford much she took me to an event at the mall where you could take your Red or Blue version and get a Mew. This was one of the last good memories I had of her before financial issues and other life stresses caused her to have a gigantic mental breakdown and become physically and emotionally abusive, until my last year of High School where we got in a fight and I left home, and found out a couple days later she died of a stroke on the couch.
>Wartortle, for my dad
He left before I was a year old and I never got to know him much until after my mom died. Squirtle and Wartortle just remind me of his personality. He died of cancer last August.
>Sawsbuck, for my grandfather
He loved deer and hunting, I went with summer because when I was tiny he would hitch a carrying trailer onto the back of the tractor for me to ride in while he mowed the lawn, and we'd sit on the back on his truck eating watermelon and having seed-spitting contests. The last time I saw him before I moved out of state, I brought a watermelon to eat on the back of his truck one last time.
