Another day. Another Primarina Twist. As the event drew closer to its end, though, the temptation to try something trickier compelled her... Tomorrow, perhaps.

time's running out and he can only magikarp splash enough times!

it was currently zero, but he's bound to hit one sooner or later, right? or maybe he just keeps it at zero so the others who didn't hit it won't feel as bad.

something about misery loves company. he's heard that phrase before.

mantine surfing is so fun, he hears no one say ever.

he looks around to see what the general consensus for the sport was, and most of them just wanted to do the magikarp splash for the sake of doing it.

can't blame them though since he's in the same position.

She wipes her lips free of blood, the wound from her previous tumble healing under droplets of ocean water. Skyler rolls her shoulders, shakes her arms and steps onto the water like she's about to pick a fight with the whole goddamn ocean.

She's got a bone to pick with this whole Arceus damned Mantine Surfing contest. As if sensing her mood, the Mantine quietens under Skyler's feet and heads back to the waves without hesitation.

How Thomas didn't injure himself after such a horrible misstep was unknown even to him. Somehow, he was able to get back in there the next day. This only made him more determined to execute the Magikarp Splash

Over-The-Gyarados was their saving grace. Not Magikarp Splash and not even Starmie 720. For whatever reason... Over-The-Gyarados was all Katherine and her Mantine managed to perform. Successfully, that is. And at a good rate, too. Which is why it comes as no surprise that when she taps the water-type's back, she instructs it with a nod to attempt the trick once more.

Another failure, another red tint to his skin as he swam mildly painfully back to his Mantine, and he sighed as he took a breather. This trick was much harder than even the Magikarp Splash. That one had only taken him a couple of tries, but he would get this down if it was the last thing that he did! So he urged the Mantine on full speed to hit the next wave, because this time they would get it! It was time they finally got the Over the Gyrados!

Humming softly to himself, Jack urges the Mantine forward for another attempt of the Starmie 720. He attempts to focus but instead smiles and tries to enjoy himself.

While nothing like surfing off the west coast back home, Rafael was enjoying himself. The Mantine skimmed along the waves and a sense of familiarity brings a smile to Rafael's lips as they begin to spin.[break][break]

"Blub."

Josh spit out water as he surfaced, having fallen off Mantine after failing the Magikarp Splash again. He looked over to see the Mantine staring at him with its big, old blank stare.

"RAI...."

Josh had to stop Lightning from zapping it for, apparently, being a smartass. Dragging the Raichu back onto the Mantine, they would hit the next wave and attempt another unfortunate Magikarp Splash.

That was a terrible wipeout, and even he thought so himself.

Well, in order to stand up, one had to fall many, many times, right?

It was apparently the same with this danged-ass trick.

The docks leading to the Mantine Surfing area were getting busier, with competitors scrambling to get as many attempts as possible before the looming deadline. Shalin, on the other hand, just wanted to cast off from the docks and have fun with a Mantine. That was it - after the festival was over, if the Mantine were going to be mass released, she would ask the festival organizers if she could catch one of them. But for now, another attempt at the elusive MAGIKARP SPLASH...
