Training Time [open or NPC]

Zoey walked over to the battle area, Waffles, her Chimchar, clinging to her leg. He really enjoyed going on rides around campus. He was especially excited to be going on a ride that day because they were going to be battling. Zoey wanted to challenge her first battle leader really soon, but first she needed to train her Pokemon some more. So far, she had been spending time in the virtual training machines as well as the forest in search of wild Pokemon. She had never taken on another trainer, so she thought that would be a good idea before her first battle leader challenge. After all, trainer battles were very different from wild or virtual Pokemon battles. She hoped her first battle would go well. She stopped walking and glanced around, Waffles still on her leg, wondering if there was anyone who would want to battle.
