My tourney was held at the Gathering Ground in St. Louis Mo.  last saturday,
August 14. It was a DCI sanctioned tourney (Ask Tyler Grund about Gathering
ground) there were 24 people there and 4 rounds of  best of 3 untill the
final 8.

My deck is:
Pokemon:
4 Venonat
3 Venomoth
3 Scyther
2 Pinsir
3 Mr. Mime
4 Jynx
3 Charmander
2 Charmeleon

Trainers:
3 E.R.
3 Super E.R.
2 Oak
2 PlusPower
2 Computer Search

Energy:
2 Double Colorless
10 Psychic
12 Grass




The first round was vs a guy with a super stall deck. Alakazams, chanceys, Mr
mime, onix, Zapados and arcanine. Notice all pokemon except mime and alakazam
have more than 90 hp. This guy had NO ENERGY AT ALL except for 4 which he
used with super potions. he has loaded up all his pokemon with damage by the
6th round, and had a full bench. the guy out had no damage. he thought
zapados could take a few it, having no damage out... THAT WAS HIS MISTAKE.
instead of using the pokemon center he had comp. searcherd for the last turn,
he let zapados stay out. I gusted for the alakazam and brought out a fully
loaded jynx. man was he screwed. basically, the same thing happend the next
gam, him not drawing the second alakazam and me killing with meditate from
mime and jynx. I won, Win Win

1 win-0 losses
The second round was VERRRRRRRRRY diffrent. I played a kid (I forget his
name) who had won 5 TOURNAMENTS WITH OVER 20 PEOPLE IN THEM. He had
basically........... An incredibly good deck. he had theis cool combo that
whenever he killed a weak or low hp pokemon, he would use pokeflute and gust
of wind the next turn. He killed the same pinsir 3 times!!!!!
I lost bad

1 win-1loss
the third round was horribble, I just dont wanna go into detail about it.
look at it like this I was playing venomoth with the power to shift to fire
(charmander) or psychic.
the other guy was playing grass and psychic. I obliterated him.

2 wins-1 loss
The fourth round was a modified haymaker deck. guess how it went? he had
grass and electric, I had charmeleon which massacurred the pinsirs and
scythers.
the electric was a problem.my charmeleon had 30 damage after killing 2
pinsirs and a scyther. **BANG** AHHHHHHHHHHHH. that damn dirty zapados. I
then brought out a full powered venomoth and fliped a tails, then he did
thunder and fliped a tails. My venomoth wasnt doing so badly. Then I fliped a
heads and he did too. twice in a row. **BANG** AHHHHHHHHHHHH he killed my
venomoth.I brought out a nearly fully pumped jynx, with 2 psy on him and no
energy in my hand. I pulled an oak, played most of the trainers and the
venonat in my hand and oaked. I got a psy and was save. the jynx massacurred
the rest untill the end.
the second fight with him was vey bad. it was boring and I decked myself.
Poop Head.
Then I won because he only pulled one basic and It died before he could pull
another.

3 wins-1 loss
I was in the final 8, but somehting very bad happened. My grandpa came to
pick me up. DOH!!! o well.
