==Dialogue==
;(First interaction)
:Mr. Piggy Bank: Oh, you're interested in the soda appraisal skill certificate I just obtained as well, I know, you want a peek.
:Mr. Piggy Bank: My elders tell me that the really smart ones can get certified for a ton of stuff, and get plenty of medals! Which is why I'm also collecting plenty of certificates and medals, to prove that I'm smart too!
:Mr. Piggy Bank: Look, my pocket's full of them. Heehee, you have to work hard to get these... I'm not too shabby, eh?
: Definitely!
::Mr. Piggy Bank: You get it! You're my bestie! I'm gonna show all my certificates and medals here... to you!
::Mr. Piggy Bank: We Oaks would never do our friends dirty!
: What's the point of these?
::Mr. Piggy Bank: O—Of course there's a point! If I didn't have these certificates, how would I prove to my family that I'm useful!
:: You sure you got it right?
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: Have I not? Let me think... A certificate is obtained through hard work. Everyone likes someone who's recognized. Getting a certificate means I've worked hard and gained recognition, then everyone will like me.
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: It looks fine...
:: Who's this family you're talking about?
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: Ah, o—oh no, Uncle told me never to reveal that I'm a member of the Oak Family...
::Mr. Piggy Bank: Anyway, the certificates... and the medals, they're really important! I'll show all of them to you!
:You are forced to sit through Mr. Piggy Bank's monologue on his arduous journey to acquire all his certificates. Time trickles as slow as pearls of condensed droplets inching their way down the side of a chilled soda can. Admit it, if you could, you would also want to try sitting for a soda appraisal certificate.
:Mr. Piggy Bank: Spheroid rail repair, theater announcer, object training silver medal, and hotel drainage unclogging certificates...
:Mr. Piggy Bank: Heheh, you're the first one who's ever had the patience to sit through my monologue! You're a good friend!

:Mr. Piggy Bank: It's fake. Meaningless. You're just lying to yourself. What's the point...
: Can I touch the fluff ball on your head?
: Thank you for your introduction.

:You are forced to sit through Mr. Piggy Bank's monologue on his arduous journey to acquire all his certificates. Time trickles slower than your perception of time has ever fathomed.
: I still want to know...
::Mr. Piggy Bank: There's more! Feast your eyes on this: a Hamster Ball Knight hairstylist cert! I just got it too. How about that!
::Mr. Piggy Bank: Another important piece to add to my collection. Does that mean I've become even more important now?
:: I guess so.
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: Heheh, I'm gonna frame this one up and show it off in the most conspicuous space in my room! Everyone who comes over will be able to see it! Oh, I have to invite my elders too!
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: I want all who set their eyes on this certificate to know that I'm THAT good!
:: I'm not sure it matters.
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: What're you saying! If-If I didn't have any certificates, how would others know I'm super awesome? And if they don't think so, they'll bully me and despise me...
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: But you're my good friend! I bet you'll take real good care of me!
:: Watch this!
:::You steadily fish out a Dreamscape Pass from your pocket, showing it off like a prized possession. Scrutinizing the cluster of stickers on it, an envious expression plasters Mr. Piggy Bank's face.
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: I know this one! It's what The Family gives to visitors! Nice. I want one too.
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: The more sights you see, the more stickers you can collect. This, this is a journal of your life, and it's proof of your rite of knowledge!
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: I'm so envious, as you've been to so many places. I mean, I visited those places too, but I have no proof...
:: Thank you for your introduction.
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: Phew, it was fun talking to you. It's been a long time since anyone really listened to me so earnestly. I hereby award you with a certificate I created. It's called... Let's just call it "Piggy Bank's Friend"! How's that for a stylish name!
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: Don't forget to return and share more fun with certificates with me.
: Can I touch the fluff ball on your head?
::Mr. Piggy Bank: My elders said... not to let strangers touch this ball.
::Mr. Piggy Bank: But, you're so willing to chat with me, and you're interested in certificates too... I'll let you touch it just a little.
::You cautiously reach out, carefully touching that soft fluffy ball with your fingertip... and then a feeling of unprecedented comfort and calm washes over you. It is at this moment that you finally realize how joyful it is to interact with people.
::Mr. Piggy Bank: It tickles, heheh... I bet it feels good, doesn't it?
: Thank you for your introduction.
::Mr. Piggy Bank: Phew, it was fun talking to you. It's been a long time since anyone really listened to me so earnestly. I hereby award you with a certificate I created. It's called... Let's just call it "Piggy Bank's Friend"! How's that for a stylish name!
::Mr. Piggy Bank: Don't forget to return and share more fun with certificates with me.

:::That sweet, sunshine smile that Mr. Piggy Bank is brimming with vanishes, replaced by... that look you're all too familiar with: the lethargy and tedium you experience after a sumptuous lunch.
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: Why does it feel so empty, like... drinking an uncarbonated SoulGlad.
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: What's the point... What's the point. Collecting all these shiny knick-knacks just to hang them at home, and then getting people to come over to look at them?
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: I am like that teapot in the Sweet Dreams Troupe that plays its own belly like a drum, and the candle that burns its own hair to light the room, employing silly antics to make people laugh, garnering meager ounces of worth from their applause, yet still revels in it as recognition.
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: Fake. Meaningless. Delusional. Pointless.
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: But... What else can I do?
:::Mr. Piggy Bank: Good friend, here. Don't worry. This one's not flat.
