## Plot

At the Monastery of Spinjitzu, the Ninja, the Mane Six, Megan, the Shintaro Crystal Guardians and the Young Ninja were playing different types of indoor games and sport, Kai and Felix played table tennis, the other Young Ninja are playing UNO, and Rainbow Dash and Jay were playing *Prime Empire*. Lloyd tells Vania that playing games with her new friends were help her spend time bonding with them. Vania has decided to play a sport that the Ninja, the Mane Six and Megan never played, Skyball, an aero sport in the Kingdom of Shintaro where most of the Sky Folks played, similar to basketball, but it only provided wings of Shintaro to play, an anti-gravity skyball and the the Golden hoop for the specific target.

The Ninja, the Mane Six, Megan, the Young Ninja and the Middly members, Linette, Maylia and Bubbles, join with Vania and some Winged Guards of Shintaro, Hailmar and coach Uku brings a skyball and the two floating golden hoops here. She have already split them into teams, the silver team led by Lloyd and the gold team led by Cole. In the silver team, Kimberly tells them that they were not athletic enough to beat the gold team, but Maylia deserves what is important is through sportsmanship. The game starts, with Spike and Akita as they tally the score, and the Shintaro Crystal Guardians are cheering for the silver and the gold team. The gold team uses the athletic skills and beat the silver team with two points.

The other were even worried that the team may lost to the gold team, but Rarity asked them that even though they were weak, they could still win if they try. Maylia has bought some static skills to beat the gold team. With the power of teamwork and resilience, the silver team gets two points in a row, and its a tie-breaker. The last point will emerge as the winner of the game. The silver team did some skills against the gold team, even though Cole was unable to beat Lloyd with this technique. The silver team gains one point and then wins the game. Even though the gold team loses, they all felt that they had a good game together. As they celebrate through the true meaning of fair play, Jay then agrees to have a rematch, which the other Ninja and the others agreed.
