Really, a nicely made cucumber horse is a sign that you had a full life, and are remembered fondly by your family.
Really, the only room for criticism is that for Obon, the cucumber horse symbolizes spirits’ journey to visit their family, while the eggplant ox is supposed to be for their trip back to the realm beyond.
When your descendants care so much about you that instead of a horse, they prepare a Legendary Pokémon for you!
