"Haha, yeah I'll admit that Arete is cute too, but I'll happily admit I'm a trainer who favor's his own." As he said that, he rubbed the Goomy's head comfortingly with his currently free hand, getting a happy 'goom' in return. "Oh, and it's no problem. Feel free to let her out if you change your mind though."
Just as he turned to start walking to the waiting room, he heard the later comment about getting food first. Before he even could reply, Nikki let out agreeing cries as she shook her head, well whole body for her case, happily, earning a laugh from him. "Okay, okay, yes Nikki you'll get some. And that sounds fine by me. Let's go." He began walking off with the stands in mind, joking in his head about being able to grab some stall food other than Ramen today.
