Man vs Wild: Survive Johto pt1

I sat on a fallen tree and put a pumpkin seed into my mouth to suck on for a while.  "Why do we have to take him through this?" I asked my Typhlosion, Lion.  My two foot, three inch Typhlosion looked up to me with a pumpkin seed shell hanging from her mouth.

"Because we're getting paid a lot of money to help this dude go through Johto without killing himself or going insane." Lion told me, the pumpkin seed shell falling from her mouth.

"Why do we need paid when we can go battle the Elite Four and get a ton of money from that?" I asked her.  Lion got quiet, for she didn't know the answer to that.  Grylls turned to me and waved while he introduced me to the camera.

"I really hope this isn't live." I thought to myself pouting slightly under my hat.  I opposed strongly about bringing someone so naive about Pokemon on a survival journey through Johto when a Rookie could go through without getting too lost.

"Mistie?  Do you have anything to say to the viewers?" Grylls asked.  He looked confused by my sudden pout.

"Yeah.  Yeah, I do!  To anyone who thinks they can get lost in a region as simple as Johto is outta their minds!  Or just very stupid." I said standing up.  Lion had her paws over her mouth trying not to laugh.

"Hey, we're live here!  Be nice!" Grylls whispered to me.  I pouted again.  "Okay!  Let's get going!  We will start by going up that mountain!"  He pointed to the mountain leading down from Blackthorn City.

"Can't go that way.  There's a ledge that you can jump off of, but you can't climb up it." I said walking down the route to Cherrygrove City.  "You'll go my way, or leave.  Gottit over there, Mr. Survivorman?"

"Okay!" Grylls said walking ahead of me.  He looked proud of himself.

"You really should't've walked in front of Mistie." Lion warned.  Grylls looked down to Lion, who was standing between him, and me, which I had stopped to try to get my anger under control.

Finally, after walking in front and my anger cooling down, it started to get dark.  We'd just left Cherrygrove after Grylls convinced me that it would be bad for ratings of we stayed at a Pokemon Center that night.

"I will now show you how to make a tent out of leaves and branches." Grylls said into the camera.

"You'd better not hurt a tree!" I screamed when he reached up to break off a branch.  Lion nodded and took a sleeping bag out of my pack.

"But why not?  It's just a tree!" Grylls said grabbing a tree branch.  I just wished I would've warned him that there's a tree Pokemon called Sudowoodo, and he'd just grabbed its arm.  Though, it was really funny watching him scramble around trying not to get punched or kicked by an angry Sudowoodo.

"Tried to warn ya." I said walking off of the trail into the forest a little.  Lion spread out my sleeping bag and she and I squirmed into it.

"I would like I little more notice before I do something like that again!" Grylls yelled at me.

"Let me see here.  Someone who doesn't have a Team, or the Master of Johto.  Who's gonna win here, Li?" I asked Lion.

"You are." She answered climbing into a large tree to ask a Hoot-Hoot something.

"So, what do we do for food?" Grylls asked sitting down.  He was wearing a tee-shirt and looked cold.  I dug a blanket out of my pack along with my pillow, then tossed the blanket to him.

"Heads up!" Lion screamed as several Oran Berries fell from the tree.  One landed in my hand and a few others in my hat.  I tossed the one I had in my hand to Grylls.

"Yum!" I said biting into the Oran Berry.  They were juicy and still warm from the sun beating on them all day.  Lion agreed through a full mouth from the tree branch above us.

"Well, I'll get a better meal tomorrow morning in Violet City.  G'night!" I said crawling into my sleeping bag.  Lion joined me and we giggled from the night chill.

"Not exactly my idea of survival." Grylls said from behind me.  Lion and I laughed out loud and fell asleep, ending a day that will lead into a very, very long week.
