Joey and Barkley belong to me

So while my Riolu OC is named Nub, I actually named my protagonist Joey in the PMD game.

This is one of the most emotional scenes in all of pokémon and after finishing the main story of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky I felt like I had to do something in memory of the best, most heartfelt adventure I've ever experienced in a pokémon game. This scene left me absolutely in tears.

Barkley, you're an amazing Treecko, and I am so glad to know you and to have helped you overcome your fears. I'm so glad to hold you one more time. <3
