He’d lost track on how many times he’d flopped out, but…

If there’s a will, then there certainly is a fucking way to do things!

Here we go again, Magikarp Splash!

Put the pedal to the metal!

Was she going to allow herself to be laughed at by her husband and the twins?

Nope!

Another day, another insane attempt at the Magikarp Splash!

Was he seeing things, or was that a head of familiar blue—?

Was he imagining things, or had he just seen luciano fisk all the way out here, in Hoenn?!

Either way… today was another day, and this time it was time for the Lanturn 360. Less nauseating than the Starmie 720 that’s for sure!

We’re in for a doozy, everyone!

Next trick on the list was the Starmie 720 and this one looked absolutely terrifying.

Thank hell he was used to flying up in the air—but still hating the fact that he had to land in the water whenever he wiped out. Yikes.

Anyway… time to see if Guillermo Marceliño would notice this… him, out on the water? Really?!

"Again."
[break][break]
Another day, another attempt at an OVER-THE-GYARADOS, and hopefully this time the Mantine will actually meet his standards and get the trick right. Because obviously it's not Mars' fault that they keep failing! It's all on the pokémon. It seriously needs to get with the program.
[break][break]
So, here they go, onto the wave and then the skies.

[attr="class","aurelie_body"]Aurelie's jaw dropped as she watched Thomas Benoit pull off a perfect Magikarp Splash right before she was about to glide out onto the water and attempt her own. With a grin, she patted her Mantine to get its attention and pointed over to the successful surfing pair riding the waves. "We just need to do exactly what they did, okay?" she told the Mantine. "Or at least close enough for government work, right?" A rippling laugh burst from her lips as she straightened again, urging the Mantine toward the ocean herself and assuming a grounded pose.

If only it could be that easy...
