Swimming Race [RACE OVER]

[Lilbabe808]

Leela knew this was going to be hard. She took a deep breath and tried to think positively. It was a definite learning experience for her.  

[Bluedemonwolf]

Diving under the water, Meredith took a moment to gain a different perspective. Maybe coming at the swimming pokemon from below would help. After all he kept swimming past them!  

[mewrose]

Shaun just noticed that there seemed to be a Buizel in the water. That wasn't one of the prize pokemon, was it? But it certainly wasn't being ridden. Had it just been caught in the wrong place at the wrong time?  

[Butterfly Kika]

She needed to push herself harder. Maybe she would try an underwater approach this time? She dived down below the surface in an attempt to avoid the rapid water from all the trainers and their pokemon trying to catch the various pokemon. Maybe she would have more luck here.  

[Lilbabe808]

She spotted the psyduck. One deep breath later and they were headed straight for it. Hopefully she would get lucky. Then she could taunt it...well, that would be kind of mean but it had been taunting her.  

[mewrose]

Shaun decided he better leave the Buizel be. It wasn't part of the contest, so bothering it would probably not be good, whether it had an owner or not. He tried to focus back on the pokemon they were aiming for.  

[Bluedemonwolf]

Meredith shot out of the water, having missed any pokemon in his new attempt. He then noticed a trainer had spotted him. He hit the water near Shaun, let out a 'Bui', and swam after that Psyduck.  

[Lilbabe808]

That psyduck was somehow faster than them. Leela had no idea how, just that it kept getting away. She would just have to keep trying.  

[mewrose]

There! Shaun nearly fell off his Dewgong as he grabed hold of the Magikarp. "Gotcha!"

I'm keeping it!  

[Bluedemonwolf]

Meredith tried again diving under and coming at the Psyduck from below. He went slower this time so he wouldn't go flying out of the water like last time.  

[Lilbabe808]

Leela gasped as someone managed to catch the magikarp. Oh, how lucky of them. She kept coming close to them and coming up empty.  

[Butterfly Kika]

Sasha shot from the water. She under approach had failed. She looked over as someone had caught the Magicarp. She would just have to try again another day. She began her swim back to shore leaving the race. None of the others seemed to really catch her interest.  

[Lilbabe808]

Leela finally spotted the tentacool as the other trainer caught the magikarp. She urged her rental after it. Now that there was only two left, the competition would only get harder.  

[Bluedemonwolf]

Barely coming out of the water, Meredith noticed that the Magicarp had been caught. He let out a tiny 'zel' and put more effort into trying to save the Psyduck.  

[Lilbabe808]

Leela noticed that one trainer was leaving the race. Guess they had wanted the magikarp. She didn't really care which one she got, so long as she got one.
