{{Nihongo|'''Air Rally '''|バドミントン|Badminton}} is the 3rd minigame that appears in ''[[Rhythm Heaven Megamix]]''. It is the short variation of [[Air Rally 2|Air Rally]] from ''[[Rhythm Heaven Fever]]''. In this game, [[Baxter]] and [[Forthington]] fly above a desert-like area with a slow paced song playing in the background.

The player controls [[Baxter]], a dog in a red airplane. [[Forthington]] starts off by serving the shuttlecock at Baxter. The player must keep hitting it back by pressing A button in constant beats of two. Forthington might also signal the rhythm to change to a slow beat of four then return to the normal two beat after counting.
The player controls [[Baxter]], a dog in a red airplane, playing badminton with [[Forthington]], a cat in a blue airplane. Every time Forthington hits the shuttlecock, the player must press A at the right time to hit it back. Sometimes, the rhythm will change. Forthington cues indicate the rhythm:
*Normal rhythm: Hyah, hyah, hyah, hyah... (Nya, nya, nya, nya...) A standard slow rhythm.
*Normal rhythm: Hyah, hyah, hyah, hyah.../Nya, nya, nya, nya... (A standard slow rhythm of twos.)
*Altered: Bu-bum bum bum! (Lob shot) A slowed down beat of fours.
*Slow rhythm: Bu-bum bum bum! (A slower rhythm of fours.)
*Back to normal: Two, Three, FOUR! (Two, Three, Go!) The rhythm reverts to normal again. Only said after a lob shot is done.
*Back to normal: Two, three, FOUR!/Two, three, go! (The rhythm reverts to its normal speed.)
Notice that hitting shuttlecock from different distances does not appear in this variant, excluding the final hit, where Forthington catches the shuttlecock.
 
Unlike [[Air Rally 2|the original Air Rally]], the shuttlecock is always hit from the same distance, excluding the final hit, where Forthington catches the shuttlecock.

*'''Miss...''': The shuttlecock flies past the player, and Forthington serves another one. However, if it happens to be the last beat, Forthington will get disappointed stating that you can’t just miss the last one.
