As Lucas walked with Minzy outside, he listened to her bring up the idea of having a battle. A double battle at that! Lucas had never been in a battle before with another person before, having only battled wild pokemon. He had seen battles from the league on television, but it would be very different actually participating in one. Needless to say, he was hesitant. He looked down at Skip and Vista for help on what to do, only to see they seemed... excited at the idea. Well, one of the best ways to learn something is to do it, so Lucas decided to try.

As they got outside, a new person was on the scene, brimming with confidence. He was offering a battle with whoever wanted to join. Actually, it seemed that almost everyone wanted to battle in some form now that they were outside. Even Barnabas wanted to join in! Though, now that he was looking, the boy with the eevee wasn't there. He must have headed out already. 

Minzy offered the idea of battling the flamboyant Kalos boy, which was an interesting choice, to say the least. Though, from what she said, it seemed more like she wanted to see the clefa in action, which made more sense. Meanwhile, a battle was already beginning to form. Lucas felt a headache begin to nag his conscious. There were way to much going on out here, and trying to take it all in was taking a toll on his mind. He couldn't decide what to do... almost. What he did decide was to let Minzy decide.

"Er, whatever, um, works for you, will... work for me" It felt a bit like shoving his problems onto Minzy, but he'd probably mess something up if he tried to do something. This seemed like the best option.
