MANTINE SURFING (SPLASHFEST)

POSTED ON Aug 5, 2022 7:46:53 GMT

it shouldn't really be a question on how many times kyle is willing to do it, but how many times does he need to try in order to perfect the move.

he gets on the mantine again after the last try. an over-the-gyarados shouldn't be too hard given that a lot of people have already done it. he's not special, but it shouldn't be a too difficult of a trick if there's more than three people that have already achieved such feat.

with another try, he attempts the trick.

MANTINE SURFING (SPLASHFEST)

POSTED ON Aug 5, 2022 8:31:43 GMT

he doesn't actually go outside much, contrary to his build. he felt like he was going to be humiliated by the first try, but given that he was pushed into this and agreed, he can't fault anyone but himself for trying.

he gets on the mantine. it feels different from any other flying-type he had ridden on, and to think he has to balance himself on top of it without any traction already has him thinking he won't be able to do it.

still, there was no choice but to try the third hardest trick, and that he does.

Again.
[break][break]
All that's left to do is try, no point in giving up. Even if there were and someone could argue they could be earning points with easier to pull off tricks, Mars is not one for that sort of thing. Go big or go home. Once you set your mind to something, keep trying until you achieve it.
[break][break]
With that said, he aims for an OVER-THE-GYARADOS yet again, hoping the Mantine will actually meet his expectations this time.

if katherine ever has a choice between letting MATIAS SILPH win or someone else, she will choose neither. because only she can win. that's why she asks her mantine to perform a PRIMARINA TWIST while matias is busy with the more difficult tricks.

Abandon all pride ye who enter here, should've been a warning for any who decided to participate in the Mantine Surfing event. Even one tempered by the ocean's fury finds herself lagging a bit by now.

Even the Mantine itself seems decidedly unimpressed.

But Skyler is nothing if not stubborn. Deftly, she jumps onto the pokemon's back and navigates towards the looming waves.

It was getting there, one step at a time. It just had to keep on trying to pull off the Magikarp Splash, no matter how exhausted or battered or bruised it got.

The real Hideo was off drinking a soda along with his Beheeyem, semi-oblivious to his Ditto's struggles.

"Well, at least we're not the only ones without any points..." Locke pointed out after a quick peek at the scoreboard. It didn't do much to lift his or Manta-Manta's spirits, but they were in it for the long haul at this point.

Is this why it's called a sunk-cost fallacy?

So it didn't work out, what else was new? But that wouldn't stop her from going at this again. Hailee was extremely competitive and stubborn, that she could not lie. But at least she could say she was having fun, and that's what really mattered right? Kinda. That and nailing this move if it was the last thing she did. "Come on!" she huffed and prayed. Let today be the day.

He broke the surface of the water with some odder cross between a hiss and a laugh, briefly shaking the cascades of brine from his hair and wiping them from his face, altogether. For just a few moments, he glanced around to gather his bearings and his Mantine's location before beginning to move once more, making a brisk stroke towards it and landing a stable hand atop the seat secured upon it to haul himself back up.[break][break]

That was the change in pace he'd been looking for, so again.[break]

Go figure; the blind bitch missed the mark. It hadn't been like he was expecting much otherwise—and the fact that he shot for what some would've argued to be the worst possible thing didn't make it better—but, y'know...still.[break][break]

Of course, though, as he took just a moment to confirm that his contacts hadn't been carried away with the tides, he only spared just enough time to clock where his Mantine was before making his way over, hauling himself back onto its back, and getting straight into the next wave.[break][break]

[attr="class","monbody"]It was stunning and quite spectacular to watch many people successfully pull off Magikarp Splashes, after many days of attempting the deceptively difficult trick. It almost made Aurelie wonder if she had been approaching the surfing from the completely wrong angle after all, and she should have been trying the hardest tricks first, rather than the easiest. That approach simply ran counter to all her instincts, though. One didn't master a skill by immediately trying the most difficult task they could possibly attempt, without any of the skills they needed to pull it off. Surely, that just wasn't how learning took place and success happened.

...Or was it?

Still, she'd made up her mind. The Starmie 720 still awaited her on the list of moves that she was gradually working her way up, rather than down. And if it made her different from the other surfers, then so be it.
