"We're going to do this." He says, and there's not even the slightest hint of hesitation in his voice. No doubt, no fear, no worries at all. Mars smirks as he looks at the waves from atop of the Mantine, and when finding one to his liking, he commands the Kite Pokémon forward.
[break][break]
It swims up to the wave's crest and then it jumps. And when it does, Mars attempts to perform an OVER-THE-GYARADOS that will meet high standards.

If it was possible to have a flaming background each and every time he tried the Magikarp Splash then he would definitely have that every single damned day.

Because he wasn’t going to stop trying, and trying, and mcfucking trying until he landed the damned trick.

Sucking in a deep breath, he held on tight for dear life and screamed the moment the Mantine from Hell™ launched them high into the air.

Now that the hardest trick in the book was done—it was time to get to the rest of the plan!

Which one was next—ah, yes, that’s right, the Over the Gyarados one.

How did that go again…?

His mind had been so hyperfocused on the Splash for so long, he wondered if he’d be able to get this one too.

The only way the Ditto's attempts would end would be if it finally pulled the move off, so once again, it'd go for another Magikarp Splash.

It took about half an hour of relieved crying before Locke and his Mantine were able to resume the competition, now free of the Magikarp's shadow and ready to move on to its evolution's-inspired tricked with significantly more confidence.

Okay, so one upping the ol’ man was slow going.

At least he was getting the hang of the Magikarp Splash!

[attr="class","monlyrics"]Live in the sunshine, swim in the sea
[attr="class","monbody"]Well, that last attempt at the Over-the-Gyarados had been an abject failure. She hadn't even gone past the first flip before just falling off the Mantine entirely and landing with a huge splash in the water. At least, she'd been prepared for this trick to take a while, so her feelings about it were much more matter-of-fact than upset.

Still, though, she thought with a sigh as she slowly clambered atop her ever-patient Mantine again, sometimes I wonder if the Mantines are laughing at all of us trying to do these crazy tricks. Or if they get bored or annoyed with us too, for doing these things over and over again. I guess I wouldn't blame them either way! Silently, she thanked the Mantine that was now carrying her back out to sea for putting up with all her surfing antics today.
