'''The Sort-Of Sea Monster''' is the nineteenth mission in ''[[Mario Tennis Aces]]'', taking place in '''Savage Sea Coast'''.

==Layout==
[[Mario]] and [[Toad]] enter the Coastal Ferry and board a boat driven by a Koopa Troopa who is the older brother of the [[Battle Boat|previous Koopa Troopa they played tennis with]]. The Koopa Troopa reluctantly agrees to take them through the intensifying storm to the next [[Power Stone]]. Along the way, a [[Blooper]] appears and challenges Mario to a tennis match.

In this mission, Mario must play a three-set match with the Blooper. The only obstacle during the match is the mast in the middle of the net; if Mario touches it, the ball will bounce back towards him. The Blooper itself will easily rally the ball, but has trouble blocking [[Zone Shot]]s.

Afterwards, the Blooper leaves, and Mario and Toad fix their eyes on the Power Stone ahead.

==In-game text==
*''"Defeat Blooper in a tennis match!"''
