the last one doesn't count since he was just warming up. you can't call exercises actual attempts since they're really just that.

this time, he's serious. he never fails on anything, and every "fail" he got was just him messing around or simply testing the waters. he still hasn't synergizes with his mantine, and only then will it actually count.

he goes into the water on the mantine, ready for a go.

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.

[attr="class","monbody"]After her last wipeout, Aurelie did find herself having to sit off to one side, hunched forward and clutching her stomach with both arms until the dizziness passed. But now she was back on her feet and willing to brave the Starmie 720 again. Given how long it had taken her to master the Primarina Twist before, she reminded herself to be patient. Rushing was the enemy of any craftsman, and particularly a smith, and she was determined not to give in to impatience and mess something up.

Once again, Marshall rode out on the back of his rented Mantine to attempt a MAGIKARP SPLASH. All the practice he and the Pokémon had been doing has to amount to something soon, right? Marshall could only hope.[break][break]

over the gyarados, because now she just wants to get this right. maybe it's the previous attempts of magikarp splash that's doing this to her, because now she just wants to finish things up and.. at least try to pull off every trick once by the end of the day. [break][break]

fingers crossed.

Did he need to channel his inner Kali in order to land this Weather Trio-forsaken trick?!

He could already hear the snickering from somewhere, though—and knew that Ryujin wasn’t going to shut up until he proved her wrong.

He didn’t care if anyone from the family saw him wipe out so many times in succession, all that was important was that he was getting used to doing the motions of the Magikarp Splash, one way or another.

The Mantine really had it out for him, huh?

“Y-y-y-y-y-you again, huh?” he hissed, resigned to his fate.

Maybe a few days away from the waves… meh, who knows what’s going to happen?

“A-a-a-a-a-a-alright…” he conceded, getting on the back of the Mantine from Hell™ and allowing the dual-type to take him out into the surf.

Another day, another Magikarp Splash attempt…

this looks like fun, so heck it, why not try? [break][break]

her kids were having fun on the beach, anyhow, although they insisted to be able to watch her. so here she is, trying to impress them over impressing the instructor. so with a deep inhale, she smiles to the mantine. "lets do a magikarp splash, love~" she encourages the pokemon.

And insanity somehow won out. Which meant it was time to celebrate success by moving down the line of tricks. Was this inefficient? Yes. However, she was already too far in to back out of this line of thought.

Zev didn't expect that his first attempt at OVER-THE-GYARADOS would actually be successful considering how long it had taken him to pull off a perfect Magikarp Splash. That's why he isn't deterred at all by the wipeout. He simply circles his Mantine back around and directs it to another wave.[break][break]

"Again," he orders the Pokémon.[break][break]
