"I'll be fine." Josh said. "I can go without water for a while." He actually didn't know how long he could go without water, but besides having dirt between his scales, he was feeling fine at the moment.
"Nonsense!" Matt said. "You may be fine now, but we need to find water as soon as possible. Aquatic Pokemon such as yourself need it to survive. "
"So, what do you guys think we should do?" Hex asked. "I think that we should take our chance now, while we can, while it may it be dangerous."
"i agree." Matt said. "Josh may not make it if we waste time training."
"Yeah, let's go for it." Josh said.
Hex flew ahead for a moment, and came back moments later, completely out of breath. "I think our best bet is to stick to the darkness. Probably safest when they can't see us."
Matt gave a slight nod. "It would be best not to waste time fighting." He picked up the bucket, and put Josh inside. "You move rather slowly with your psychic powers. Carrying you around is still our best option."
