I started by playing Dark Master Trainer Mike, I won and got a World

was to ply him, the tourney began to start so he had to go, buy i got a

free prerelease clefable. On to the tourney!

Round 1 me vs. slowking deck

Plain and simple, he only had a slowpoke out and i started first with

sabrinas abra. i Quick attacked, got heads and won on turn one.

   1-0

Round 2 Me vs. Joshman (Last year Top 8 player)

He was playing a surge deck and it did real well,  i had a one prize

lead most of the lead. pass to later, they called time so he had to

finish his turn, i had a R. mewtwo with no damage out and he had out a

surges buzz (holo) with two energy on it and had played virmilion gym.

he had to play 3 straight heads to win, cause i had a 2 to one prize

lead, he flipped two heads for discharge, BUT FLIPPED TAILS for the

gym!! I win. we shook hands and went to lunch.

   2-0

During lunch we went to play trivia but Rah Rah didn't pick us. On to

round three

  Round 3 me vs. kid with fertailigatr deck (might have been ness)

 He got out fertailigatr on tur 3 and i only had a sabrinas kadabra out

sohe riptided for the win.

     2-1

Round 4 me vs Slowking deck

 this was a good match, until i got out my pumped R. mewtwo. i went on a

prize a turn run and my opponent started to cry about losing and tried

to forefit, but i wouldnt let him. i psyurned a slowking for the win.

     3-1

Round 6 me vs Koga deck

i started first this time. he had out a kogas weedle and a benched kogas

ditto, i started, played an energy on abra, played a resistance gym,

RSAd away a koga, and quick attacked for 30. he started, played a kogas

ninja trick, put an energy on weedle and used sting. My next turn i put

an energy on abra, elmed and flipped heads for quick attack, he used his

kogas inja trick, so i did 20 to ditto. he started put an energy on

ditto tried to giant growth but flipped tails. my next tur i played an

energy,  elmed evolved into kadabra and psyshotted for the KO. he put up

weedle and passed. So i just psyshot for the win.
