Air Rally
Keep the rally going in this badminton game! Try not to let the birdie go out of bounds, though...
The game revolves around Baxter & Forthington having a game of badminton while flying in their planes. Every time Forthington hits the birdie, the player, who controls Baxter, must hit it back on the following beat. Forthington sometimes says "Ba-bum bum bum!" before hitting a birdie, indicating the player must wait two beats before hitting it back. He counts out loud, "Two, three, four!" to indicate a return to the normal beat pattern.
The game tries to visually mislead the player by having the two planes distance from each other. The beat remains the same, however, at any distance. In the middle of the game, the sun sets, leaving the two players in silhouette. At night time, the clouds start to obscure the player's vision as well.
Perfect!/Ace!?: The player hits the birdie towards Forthington.
Early!/Late!?: The player hits the birdie, but it is knocked to the side.
Miss...?: The birdie flies past the player. If the player misses the last one, Forthington will be quite disappointed, yelling "Come on! You can't miss the last one! How lame is that?!"

You missed a lot of returns. The changes really threw you. The fast ones zipped past you.

The geese say...
That couldn't even be called a rally. You didn't hit the rhythm changes. You let the fast ones get past you!
Eh. Passable.
That was a great rally! You coped well with rhythm changes. You took the fast shots in your swing.

Ever since Baxter started using this racket, I haven't been able to keep up with him! I can't believe how much better he's gotten--I must practice...and maybe buy a new racket!
At the start of the game, a flock of geese can be seen flying by. Sometimes, this flock is replaced by Captain Blue Bird and five members of The Blue Birds. One member is also seen in the Superb epilogue.
Presumably due to hardware limitations, the amount of clouds was reduced in Rhythm Heaven Megamix, reducing their effectiveness as a visual distraction.
