Tips to Get High Score While Mantine Surfing
Lanturn 360 Trick
Unlock Lanturn 360 trick to get a high score at the first level.
How to use Landturn 360 Trick?
It can only be performed on high waves, so you need to keep spamming Huntail Spiral and Gorebyss Spiral on low waves, and when you get to a high wave, you perform Lanturn 360.
This will boost your high score and help you beat the level’s high score. If you time it right, you can even fit two Lanturn 360s in one jump.
Primarina Twist Trick
When you have successfully beaten the high score of the second level, you will unlock a new move called Primarina Twist. This gives you more points than your starting moves but can only be performed in short waves.
How to use Primarina Twist Trick?
Now you have two advanced moves, so when you jump off a shortwave, you can perform two Primarina Twists, and when you jump off a high wave, you can perform two Lanturn 360s. Timing is the key here. Keep to this, and you will beat the high score quickly.
Starmie 720
After beating the high score of the third level, you get access to your next and final move Starmie 720.
How to use Starmie 720 Trick?
It is a complex move; you must perform four moves before performing this skill. Jump off high waves, perform four moves, and then perform a Starmie 720.
However, unlike other moves, Starmie 720 does not give much higher points if performed twice in the same jump.
For maximum points, you can jump off a high wave, perform a Primarina Twist or Lanturn 360 on your way up, and perform a Starmie 720 on your way down. Using this technique, you will shatter those high scores in no time.
Rewards – Surfing Pikachu
Once you have dominated all the courses, you can head to the surf shop in Heahea City and get surfing Pikachu from the shop owner.
Flying Pikachu Abilities
Unlock Pikachu’s new secret ability called Over-the-Gyarados. This ability makes it easy to beat your high score in the game.
Flying Pikachu Evolution
Evolve in Raichu if you have a Thunder Stone and take him to your battles! Or if you have imported a Pikachu from the earlier game, you can evolve it into Alolem Raichu or a normal Raichu using a Thunder Stone.
