...Good query. Gives me a reason to flesh out what could be considered inconsistencies. Zent was thrown away right before she hatched, so she spied the doofus trainers(who still has no name..) walking away with some Pokemon (most likely Bruiser), and so she wasn't sure if they were to be followed.

It was hard for me to input that she's been in the Blizzard Room for over a few days, just eating all the dirt she could, and seeing Trainers and their Pokemon all back and forth. Rapp and his well...awkward? way with his Pokemon would have been odd for her to see, especially since he showed attention to her where others possibly didn't-as you noted.

Thanks for the question though. Also helps me round out that corner of Zent's personality.
