Red puts a hand onto his waist, shifting up the bottom of his overshirt where his pokeballs sit. "They are. I've got some here, then my blastoise is helping with some lifting. Espeon and Pikachu are keeping an eye out - y'know, lending a hand to the locals with the ghost watching."

A frown makes its way onto his face. "It's been bad the last few days, so I figured we could all help out. I'm helping out too, just, well..."

He trails off, looking at the pumpkin before him with a deepening look of displeasure. The bad vibes it gave off and the fact that the fruit was unknown to the locals (growing that large and strangely, anyway) still didn't sit well with the trainer, especially since he was staying in the same area as it.
