"Of course," Mindy said. "Yeah, Pokémon can be a lot more than used in battles, which seems to be the main focus of trainers nowadays. Battles and 'catch them all'. I think some start too young too. Professor Bansing-" she glanced to Michael, "-Michaels uncle, he taught Pokémon Ethics at the Academy. I learned a lot from him." She flashed a smile at Gavin and then turned to her Pokémon. She saw her Dunsparce, Charizard and Dragonite were socialising with Lytse and some of Gavin's Pokémon, her Lapras and Onix stayed to themselves in the corner where she had released them - her Lapras couldn't move and Onix kept her company - and her Decidueye walked to some trees where a Michael's Fletchling had come from. "Okay you guys! Who wants to eat?"
All of them showed their approval, so she went to the cart with the food to see what was available and who would like what. She smiled when she noticed the Blissey had added two large cans, one with seafood and one with rockfood, special recipes for salt-water Pokémon and rocktypes. Those two would be the first she'd feed.

When Michael joined her at the cart she smiled at him and walked away with two big bowls and the cans. Michael rummaged through the cart and filled a bowl with some dry food and a selection of berries for Lytse and Marie. The Cyndaquil and Dunsparce were small and knew each other, they could share a bowl. And he filled a bowl with canned food suitable for canine Pokémon, this one would be for Missy and Sparky.
With the two bowls he went first to where Missy and Sparky were playing. "Here you too, eat a bit. You can play more afterwards," he said to them. Then he went to Lytse and Marie. "There you go," he said to them."

The Charizard picked the small Charmander up. [i]"You should try,"[/i] he said. [i]"I had to wait until I evolved before I could fly."[/i]
[i]"Me too,"[/i] the Dragonite chipped in, watching Mindy bring food to the Onix and Lapras. [i]"I will go see what they have, do you want anything, Blaze?"[/i]
[i]"Something spicy,"[/i] the Charizard reacted and he looked at Charcoal. [i]"And you? Will you eat with us?"[/i]
As the Dragonite waited she looked towards Saber, the other Dragon in the company. It was nice to see Pokémon of her type. 

[i]"Yes, thank you,[/i] Anthony said as he sat on the roof. [i]"I am fully healed."[/i] He watched the two trainers who had began distrubting food. There were lots of mouths to feed, so he'd wait for his turn. Maybe he could eat with Jycii. And that Decidueye. Merlin didn't seem to be interested in food, but Anthony assumed he had been hunting during the night and had his stomach full.

Merlin stared at the Noibat and let the silence between them linger for a moment. [i]"Michael is a good kid, he takes good care of his Pokémon and Mew. He's the nephew of my owner, I've seen the boy grow up and I will vouch for him. You can trust him"[/i]
He noticed the Decidueye standing at the base of the tree and looked down. [i]"Timothy,"[/i] he greeted the other owl-like Pokémon. [i]"It's been a while."[/i]
[i]"Hello Merlin, are you eating with us?"[/i]
[i]"I have eaten,[/i] he assured the Decidueye, [i]"but depending on the plans of these trainers, we may be able to catch up. Once my trainer is up, I will go sleep."[/i]
