Is there any greater motivator than free food? Maybe, but hungry and tired as she is, the thought of free sugar-coated malasadas is exciting enough to get her to try just one last MAGIKARP SPLASH before they head back to the beach.
[break][break]
If she lands it, the snack can be a nice little reward. If she fails, it will at least make her feel a little better.
[break][break]
Either way, it's a win-win situation, since is paying.

Ah, the wonders of friendship.

Katherine failed at every other mini-game today and now she wants to punch someone? Well, yes! That's exactly what this is. She's practically fuming at this point, comforted only by the cold touch of the water when she falls off her Mantine's back. "We're doing this again. OVER-THE-GYARADOS!"

Hideo could only hope that his Ditto could pull off the Magikarp Splash this time; he couldn't imagine how red his own skin would've been after so many failed attempts.

With this be the good one?

Having to try the harder surfing tricks a few times was not unexpected, especially considering how long it had taken Marshall to land the Magikarp Splash. Undaunted by the thought of multiple wipeouts, he simply wiped water from his eyes and urged his Mantine forward.[break][break]

"Let's give the STARMIE 720 another go," he told the Pokémon.[break][break]

On the bright side, she was getting really good at diving, what with all the times she'd had to ditch her Mantine.

This was the last one he needed to land—

At least now, after he got this all done, he’d get some kind of ‘consistency’ award, or something?

Scratching his head, he took the Mantine out for another spin, this time trying the Gorebyss Spin.

Today’s text message was even shorter:

‘Better.’

Of course, same stipulation—go out much later in the day, closer to sunset, so that didn’t see him wipe out terribly as he attempted the Magikarp Splash.

Mercy, when was she going to land this stupid trick?!

Come on!

She was pretty sure she was coming up on some kind of unofficial record for the most number of days without landing a single successful trick…

Because this Magikarp Splash eluded her!

She's taking a break from Mantine Surfing, happy to watch as others befall the same fate she did, failing gloriously and being swallowed in the waves. It makes, she thinks with half a sandwich poking from between her teeth, for quite the spectacle.

Not soon after, Skyler's stretching. Restless to give it another try.

The waves felt good today, less incongruent, the Mantine he had rented rode faster than he imagined. Callan steadied his pace and ducked low to maintain his center of balance as he felt the wave lift upwards towards the side, he was blessed with a decently sized one, and hopefully that would make the Magikarp Splash stick better.

Callan lifted into the air, catching speed as he had done so dozens of times before. Only this time, the turbulence was gone, he shifted his weight forward, then back, maintaining balance on nothing but sheer adrenaline as he swishes in the air back on forth thrice. "FUCK YEAH BABY!!" He screams as drops back onto the wave, gliding down the tide.

Jack launched into the air in a whorl of sunshine and water as he and the Mantine attempted the Starmie 720. A slight feeling of nausea crept up into the bottom of his throat.
