>Had this friend named Doug back in middleschool.
>He had Emerald and I had Leafgreen. We would trade and battle all the time. I think it was Thursday, but once a week his mom would be late to pick him up, so that's when we had our "serious" battles.
>One weekend, him and a bunch of friends stayed at my place. The next day, his mom picked him up and he left a bunch of games at my house. "Don't worry about it, just give them to me on Monday."
>Monday came and Doug's seat was empty. Teacher explained that he moved away to live with his dad.
>For years I searched for him on social media, but no luck.
>One day I'm looking through old carts and there was my Leaf Green
>It's full of Pokemon that I traded with him and my friends
>I recently grabbed a couple of them and trained them up to do a play through of the old games and the post games.
Miss you Doug. You were a cool guy.
