Josh deeply inhaled beneath his helmet as the terrain at last flattened. His right thigh was still thumping from the pressure of the sloping terrain before, though not as much as it once was. He would have this home stretch and the opening stretch of the final lap to relax before Moosh would have to really watch his footing again, lest he slip and slide off the course.
He had another problem, though: with a loud cry, Wiley and Eron were trying to make a move on him. He couldn't let them pass just before the final lap was to begin. "Moosh, let's go! Cut him off!" Josh ordered as he squeezed the bear's sides tightly, tromping forward in a burst of HIGH HORSEPOWER. The duo were just wide enough to fit through the narrow lane, and it wouldn't end well if both of them tried to enter at the same time!
HIGH HORSEPOWER is used. nYM7E6XG
howard slayte 's BLOODMOON URSALUNA, desperate to catch up to those in front of him, bellowed and charged forward in a HEADLONG RUSH. Unimpeded by traffic, it was just them against the course. The duo were able to use Moosh's tracks as a visual cue of where to line up. He made a last-second adjustment when he realized Josh Devlin and his URSALUNA might be cutting it a bit close. How prudent -- and race-saving -- of him.
Two seconds in front of the challenger, the battle between the Leader's Pokémon and ERON IUNIS' FURRET reached a fever pitch. The white-haired racer yielded to the ground-type's HIGH HORSEPOWER when it was apparent his competition was too far to the left. The URSALUNA roared after scraping his side on the narrow pass, Josh yanked to one side after the left leg of his attire split in two, his piece of ruined clothing violently flapping in the high winds. The loss of speed was significant, too, the FURRET zipping past moments after the course had widened.
A white flag appeared on the starting arch's display as the three Pokémon were to cross it, indicating that it was the last time around the track!
FINAL LAP | OBSTACLE 1Prompt: By now, the racers had become familiar with the LATERAL SHIFT's main gimmick: abrupt lane changes that, if not heeded, would result in falling off course and suffering quite the time penalty. A right turn that sloped toward the inside was a reminder that they had passed the last piece of flat ground before the home stretch. The two lane changes ahead were the last "easy" part of the course left. Pokémon were inevitably starting to tire, but those who trusted their partner's stamina may have found it tempting to risk trying to weave among the lanes with added speed!
Target Number: 140 (Endurance)
Special: Boosting does NOT impose disadvantage on this obstacle, but doing so will raise the Target Number of this Obstacle by 20 only for purposes of whether the Obstacle is passed or failed. howard slayte ···
