But the pancake underneath her isn't ready to give up yet! After a few minutes of rest they're itching to go again, and the team attempts a Primarina Twist once again.

he sighs, appraoching the next wave to attempt a MAGIKARP SPLASH.

MANTINE SURFING (SPLASHFEST)

POSTED ON Aug 25, 2022 4:39:08 GMT

Shalin's tardiness was her undoing again; the Mantine she had been working with the last several days was out on a run, and it wouldn't be coming back by the time the contest closed for the day. She had to pick a random one and adapt to its timing, which meant all the difference in performing a maneuver as tight as a MAGIKARP SPLASH. The grind at this point was more of a chore than anything, despite enjoying the splashing motion. This was something she would definitely have fun doing in small doses, but not as often as she felt compelled to during Splashfest.

[attr="class","adrianwtw"]The ocean around them become unruly and difficult to navigate as the blue skies recede behind a growing haze, which is perhaps a clue that he should exit the water. But Adrian at first refuses.[break][break]

He takes another shot at the next wave, not wanting to miss out on a single opportunity. As he and his Mantine are pulled into the swelling water wall, he could see perhaps the lightning in the distance, where the sky was darkest.[break][break]

This would be the last wave of the day for him.[break][break]

The sensation of air whipping across his face and tousling his hair is second only to the butterflies in his stomach as they begin their free fall, executing several corkscrews before touching down...[break][break]

...And what was life if not a series of failures that came so swiftly within the midst of success? All things considered, the taste of it hadn't quite resonated with such a sour chord, that time around; not after such a large win that he'd been vying so long for.[break][break]

Just as he'd done before, he resurfaced as quickly as he could before bringing himself atop his own, respective Mantine. He brushed his hair, dripping and damp, from his face as he scanned the horizon once more for the next wave to arrive.[break][break]

He embarked for another Over-the-Gyarados before long.[break][break]

If the dictionary allowed phrases into its contents, the entry for 'bruised ego' may very well have had a picture of Cain's face next to its definition.[break][break]

Neverminding the fact that he, of all people, had been far from an ocean-goer and an experience surfer, it had been somewhat obvious to tell that he hadn't been quite as receptive to his failures as he had his successes. Because of that, he'd been quick to haul himself from the waters and over to his aquatic companion yet again, calling for another Starmie 720 as the waves converged.[break][break]

another failure, and she's left in the water in an unceremonious splash. at this point, it's starting to get frustrating; but she's going to get the over-the-gyrados at some point. it's only a matter of when she will, or if she'll be able to before the timer runs out. just her luck, to be able to enter something nearing the tail end of it.. maybe she should have been more diligent.

maybe the problem is that she isn't trying hard enough? she's starting to think that maybe she's pushed the mantine too hard, trying to land such a difficult move so many times - is what she would think, were it not still rearing to go. "are you okay?" she asks the pokemon, who only lets out an energetic cry and a flap of its... wings? [break][break]

well.. they say it's okay, so there's no harm in another magikarp splash attempt.
