Hey Pojo! this is my first deck i've sent in. i took this deck to a tourney in the Kitsap Silverdale mall at Wizards of the coast. it was on tuesday the 20th of July. there were 8 people. ok so here's my deck: Hitmonchan, your our man! Trainers: X2 Plus Power (for something like if your opponent has 40 HP and you can do pot smash for 30, use plus power and knock them out) X2 energy retrieval (for special punch & flame thrower) X2 S. Energy Removal: (to stall and build up special punch or flame thrower at the same time) X2 Switch (if someone has a resistance to fighting or fire use switchand send in someone else) X1 Prof Oak (hmmm.... why put this in your deck?) X4 Energy Removal (same as super) X3 Bill (get energy, "Chans", and Magmars fast) X1 Potion (Just in case) X2 Gust of wind (send out a weak pokemon and BAM) X1 Scoop up (prevent your opponent from getting a prize card) Pokemon X3 Farfetch'd (Great against fighting pokemon [especially with energy removal]) X3 Charmander (use ember) X1 Charmeleon (flamethrower away!) X3 Magmar (great pokemon with what else but... FLAMETHROWER!) X2 Hitmonchan (Jab is good for 1 energy and Special punch is great especially against colorless![not birds though]) X2 Machop (next best thing from hitmonchan) Energy Fire: 15 Fighting: 11 If you do make this deck, if you have more hitmonchans take out machops and add them in (or visa versa if you dont have enough hitmonchans). Stratagy: in the starting hand if you get: Chan/Machop then Jab/Kick or S. Punch while building up magmar or charmeleon. if you get: Fetch'd do the same as above. if you get: Char, then ember until you get charmeleon then flamethrower! if you get: Magmar, fire punch then flamethrower. Now for the tourney: Prizes: 1st 5 boosters 2nd 2 boosters 3rd 1 booster I got third place but i would've goten first except just about everyone used PSI decks (one guy had leaf PSI) Round 1 (0-0) This guy didnt win once Game 1: I drew Charmander with plenty of energy and he only drew Gastly. you know what will happen game 2: i drew Chan with plenty of evergy and he drew growlithe. i won* *we were the first to finish so i talked to my good friend Tony (the gymleader/master at Wizards) and then the guy i beat came up to tony and asked how to win and tony told him. then he said that he had another benched pokemon (he didnt) and we had to play the 2nd match again(i drew Chan again and won) Tony said he knew i would win. Round 2 (1-0) I had to fight a guy named Anthony (he's the one with the PSI Leaf deck) Game1: i got Charmander and he got venonat, i won Game2: i got Charmander and two machops and he got venonat and abra, i sent out charmander and he sent out venonat. he went first and put energy on abra. i scratched venonat for 20. he put more energy on abra and i killed venonat. he sent out abra evolved put an energy down and killed all my guys with super psy game3: i got hitmonchan and he got abra. he went first and killed hitmonchan by paralize. Round 3 (1-1) this guy was 1st place and undefeted. so lets just say i lost... bad ok so the next 2 i won Round 6 (3-2) the final battle for 3rd place and i was fighting none other than anthony game 1: the old charmander vs venonat battle, i won game 2: this game dragged on and on with my special punch winning because i kept taking his energy and he finally evolved into venomoth so my special punch would only do 10 so i just retreated and sent magmarand flamethrowered and won!* *Tony was watching and wenever i did something he nodded like he would've done that well see you next time contact me at Joshikins@hotmail.com this is Joshikins, signing off _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.
