"Must be, maybe the race activity stressed it out a bit and just lashed out?" Cali kept her voice low as to not disturb a potentially wild Pokemon.

Cali held still for a bit, not wanting to attract any attention from the wandering Zoroark. This pause in movement and not getting anything else handed over, Sweet Sixteen poked his little wormy looking head out to see what's the fuss was about.

"Applin app." Sweet Sixteen hopped right out of the pack, apparently the salty little codger apple is taking things into his own hands (or whatever those little nubs are called) and started making his grubby way towards the Zoroark.
