I just played in a tournament at Golden Glove in Bakersfield, CA.
There were only nine people, but they were very hard.  I used a fire
fighting deck.  This deck absolutely kicks butt!  I won the tournament
with it.  I won a 1st edition Jungle Pack and 4 Regular Packs.  This
deck uses pokémon like Diglett, Machop, and Hitmonchan to deal quick
damage, while on the bench, you evolve your Charmanders into
sharpclawed, rapidslashing Charmeleons!  And, if your lucky enough to
get Charizard out, you can make the games go by very quickly!  Also,
Rhydon and Arcanine are there to help.  Here's the deck...

Energy:
 4x  Double Colorless
Energy
12x Fighting Energy
12x Fire Energy

Pokémon:
1x   Hitmonchan
3x   Machop
3x   Rhyhorn
1x   Rhydon
3x   Diglett
1x   Dugtrio
4x   Charmander
4x   Charmeleon
1x   Charizard
2x   Growlithe
1x   Arcanine

Trainer:
4x   Bill
3x   Potion
1x   Professor Oak

   That's the deck.  It's a great deck, but there's only one problem.  A
lot of times, you get the wrong type of energy.  This doesn't happen
with Charizard, because of his Pokémon Power.  If you want to email me
