[Eventually, Veronica might find herself wandering to the outskirts of the city proper, where the people aren't quite so abundant and things are much quieter. Of course, this is also the prime strip to find trainers eager to battle unsuspecting passerby. It's the unspoken law- your eyes meet, and you battle, simple as that. Thankfully the non-locals were a bit more lenient than that.
Normally, Nagi preferred a bit more privacy while he trained. The training areas at the base were nice to use, but they didn't really compare with being out in the field. This one area not quite out of the city was just far away enough to guard from too many onlookers, while at the same time keep away the wild Pokemon that lived on the routes. He wasn't interested in them, today.
He stands in a grassy patch off from the sidewalk with twocats flanking either side of him, looking on as he has two others pitted against each other. An Umbreon stands with her head down, crouched as she stares down a Hoothoot standing a yard or so away, his eyes wide and unblinking.
Oddly enough, the boy says nothing, yet the Pokemon begin to battle. Confuse Ray, dodge, tackle, feint attack, confusion. All of these moves performed with precision, all with no words being spoken. The two cats, however, seem intensely concentrated on the proceedings, and anyone looking close enough might notice that their eyes are glowing a bit.
With his full attention on the battling Pokemon, Nagi doesn't see a sudden light flare in his bag, nor does he notice Veronica walk by just as a light jumps from his bag to the ground. After the light fades, a small pumpkin shakes her head, blinking as she notices the stranger approaching. Immediately curious, she starts to approach her, fangs peeking out from her mouth as she offers Ako and Kawa a grin and a friendly "Pumpkaaa!~"]
