The rush of the waves and wind alike was like nothing else - and El couldn't help a whoop, as they gripped tight to the saddle amidst the twists of a successful trick. Even if their knee was probably going to hate them for this, this would be absolutely worth it...!

They were eager to see if they could make a combo out of this, guiding the Mantine into another leap!

And much like before, Ettie is sent into the drink - it was tricky, staying atop the Mantine amidst their twists and turns! She was impressed at the people who could do it, really. She is stubborn - or perhaps more accurately, just having a good time regardless - here, however; quick to settle back into the saddle.

Much to Thomas' annoyance, his attempt at the Magikarp Splash failed. But Thomas wasn't one to give up. No, he was a warrior. He refused to give up.

After getting back on the Mantine, Thomas went for the Magikarp Splash again.

"Daddy!", the boy from the crowd cried, as his father fell into the waters.

Dorian swam, getting back up on the Mantine, and giving the boy a thumbs up, to show he was okay. After getting back on, the Mad Dog attempted the Magikarp Splash again.

Perhaps they had become a little overconfident from their prior success. Makoto is unable to help a less than dignified yelp as they hit the water - a particularly rough twist having caught them off guard. They splutter a little as they surface - having to wipe some of the water out of their eyes.

Well, the day wasn't over yet... There were more opportunities to try.

Pameplemousse landed the trick flawlessly. See, how hard could it be? He skimmed across the water to look for another potential launching point, relishing the work out that the effort was putting him through.[break][break]

Spotting another low wave, he raced forward for another Primarina Twist.[break][break]

Fuck. definitely saw that.[break][break]

Skin flushed hot with embarrassment, Cillian is quick to pine the blame of repeated failure on the Pokémon, as well as the trick itself. It was the hardest trick out there! Surely failure was expected.[break][break]

But he'd failed spectacularly the first time, and the second was only slightly better.[break][break]

"One more time," he grumbles. If he failed again, perhaps he'd take a break and try something less demanding. "Magikarp Splash."[break][break]

Aww dangit! Next time, next time for sure. Andrea could practically smell the sweet, alluring scent of victory. Or maybe that was just the salty air.

"If we try again, and again, and again, surely we'll get it right eventually!" Thought the young PokéManiac as she, Whiskers, and the unnamed Mantine went for another Splash.

As Andrew awkwardly boarded the Mantine, his Rotom-possessed camera watched from above.

"Watch this shit!", Andrew exclaimed, before getting as much air as he could. The streamer immediately attempted the Magikarp Splash.

Okay! So, the Over-the-Gyarados wasn't very easy either. Eesh... Were any of these moves easy? They all seemed like a real pain in the butt... It's fine, it's fine! There were still plenty of tricks she hadn't tried yet, she just had to keep working her way down the list.

And next on that list?

It's just a fucking splash. Magikarp do that shit all the time. You're WAY stronger than a Magikarp. Ergo, you should be able to do the splash too! It's that easy and it's that hard. You just gotta buckle down, grit your teeth- Ow, OW, not that hard, and just do it.

But not in a sponsored way. In a cool, anarchist, anti-establishment way. Anyway...

MAGIKARP SPLASH.

Two for two. It was stupid lucky for someone who had no experience in the ocean. Psyduck seemed to not quite understand its own position. It was just happy to be in the water. If Clover did fall into the waves, they might be their own based off of Psyduck's aloof behavior. The pressure sat in the back of her mind, but she did her best to focus on the task at hand. She didn't have long to go before she aced the competition.

it was far worse than the time before. a wingull chose the worst moment to pass over at a low altitude, somehow not noticing the mantine heading straight up into the air. the two collided, and lulu and her partner were knocked off course of their trick.[break][break]

she cussed before they dove back into the water. maddening that had it not been for the obliviousness of birds, they might have well landed that thirty-second attempt.[break][break]

they surfaced. ”again.”[break][break]

another wave came and with plenty of determination, they ramped up its smooth face and began the flips for the magikarp splash.[break][break]
