A gym. It was something Sapphire didn't have access to during her travels -- not ones like this at least, but she more than compensated for that by carrying out her own specialized regimens using the diverse landscape. Unfortunately there wasn't all that much that could be used aside from the trees in the forest, and even then she had a feeling that it wouldn't be received well if Toro ended up knocking down a tree or two... or accidentally started a forest fire.
So that explains why she was occupying it, watching her small friend from behind the punching bag and steadying it as the pokémon delivered solid blows despite the target being well over twice her size. Looks like she was progressing well!
The entry of another drew her attention away. Did she come to train as well? If so, Sapphire couldn't help but feel a pique of curiosity. It was a rare chance that she got to see another's exercise in action; heck, maybe she'd even give it a try herself if it looked interesting enough.
