 this tourament only had 7 competitors in it. Jimmy was lucky and got a bye.

Round 1 vs. Fire deck
I started with my base squirtle to his growlithe. he won the coin toss and
played a fire
energy to end his turn. I played a water energy and attacked with bubble. 20
damage to
him. On turn 2 he played another energy and flared me for 20. I then drew a
Wartortle,
played him along with a DCE and did bite for the win. No more basic for him.

Round 2 vs Jimmy (psychic deck)
Jimmy is or was the #1 ranked player in our city. I had played him in my
first tourament
and lost to him in the semi-finals. I knew hi deck pretty well so I decided
to attack fast. I
won the coin toss and played clefairy to his fossil gastly. I passed. He
played a P.E. and
passed. I drew a lapras, played it and attached a W.E. passed again. He
played an energy
then Oaked. he then filled his bench with a gastly, jynx, and 2 jiggltpuff.
he passed. I next
drew a clefable, played it along with a W.E. and attacked. I then started to
work on my
bench. He kept on using S.E.R. on them He Oaked twice more and couldn’t take
out my
Clefable. I kept it alive with potions and super potions. He finally decked
himself with only
1 minute left on the clock. I got my revenge and it was sweet.

Round 3 vs. Andrew (new haymaker)
Me and Andrew were tied for rank in the city, #13. He played a electrabuzz,
hitmochan,
and chansey deck. I had no chance as he matched my weaknesses to his pokemon.
5  turns
is all it took for him to win. Quick finals.

It wasn’t that bad thought I got 4 boosters for second place. props to my
brother for
getting 3rd. place and defeating the #2 ranked player in the first round.
