    When :Saturday June 17th   

    I had been looking forward to this tourney for a LONG time.  like a month
in a half.  Well, our judges were Kittyfox, Pojo's deck mechanic, and Damon,
a friend of his.  Well here is my deck which a LOT of people have copied, and
I know that that is the strongest type of flattery, but I like having my own
deck.  When people copy my deck, it is a little annoying.  I mean I'll help
them build there own deck, but they like mine, with a slight change, tossing
in khans and chans.

Aerodactyl x3

Well, just to get things started, here we go...

Round 1 vs. BYE

This guy was Easy, (joking) I got a bye, that's it, strike up a win. I'd have
rather played someone though.

1-0

Round 2 vs. Matt w/ Haymaker

He started with scyther up front, as did I, but I had magmar on the bench.  I
went first, so I played a fire energy, used scythers free retreat cost to
smokescreen for twenty.  He drew, played hitmonchan, an energy on hitmonchan,
and said go.  Wondering, I drew a card, it was a plus power.  I play another
fire energy, and leaving nothing to chance, used plus power to ko scyther. 
He brought up Hitmonchan and energy removaled both energies on mag and
jabbed.  Well I played an energy on Scyther and energy removaled back.  He
played an energy and jabbed.  I used scoop up on Magmar.  Brought up Scyther
and played a DCE and slashed for thirty, he said go.  I drew, Played the Item
finder to pick up plus power and slash for the win.

2-0

Round 3 vs. The Pokemon Lady w/ Wiggly

So far, I hadn't lost to the Pokemon Lady.  We started off, and I'll tell you
right now, I don't remember who had what.  All's I know Is that I energy
removaled her and she removaled me.  We went back and forth and Finally when
I had Dactyl out i power it up.  I bring it up and gust of wind and Wing
attack Wiggly for 80 (with 2 plus powers)
Also, I item findered a lot to attack all her weak pokemon. (jiggly & Buzz)
After She slashed it with her scyther she went on the attack again.  Wiggly
came back up and attacked.  I sat there and Started powering up mysterious
fossil, while I hit her with a slash from scyther.  and she ko'd scyhter. 
With a lot of trouble for me we went to one prize a piece.  I brought up
Dactyl and Played a third energy on dactyl to wing attack for the win.

3-0

Round 4 vs. Another Wiggly

I drew No energy and continued to not draw it.  If i drew it, he removed it. 
and I didn't draw removals till the end.  To make a long story short I drew
three prizes and decked myself. 

3-1

Round 5 vs Dani w/ Bungee splash.

Dani and I always have had good battles and this one was no exception.  We
battled back and forth and my deck pulled a weapon even I didn't even know it
had.  Dactyl against his Movie promo Mewtwo, and Removing Mewtwo's energy,
Dactyl wing attacked it to death.  His scythers never got powered up due to
removals...and Magmars took over.  I had three cards left in my deck and I
needed another prize.  I drew, NIGHTLY GARBAGE RUN!  I used it and put three
energy into my deck.  I then thunderpunched his scythers and Mewtwos so that
all's he had out was damaged pokemon.  With No cards left in my deck, I ko'd
his scyther to win.

4-1

Semi-Finals

The pokemon lady (Won) vs. Other wigglytuff

Andrew vs Dani

This is the same guy from last match, and we had another good game, but the
same thing happened with the only other difference being I had more cards
left in my deck.  I used removals to not have him get stuff powered up.  I
then used my gust of winds to get quick kills, and used my itemfinders to get
those gust of winds.  I ended up with about twenty cards left in my deck, and
the Win.

5-1

Finals
Andrew vs. The Pokemon Lady

To put it simply, the Pokemon Lady hadn't ever beat me, but I had some
feeling.  I drew my seven, and sure enough one pokemon and No energy.  I drew
and NO energy.  If I drew energy it was the wrong type.  But I still gave her
a good fight.  Didn't let her completely blow me out of the water, I think I
ko'd One of her pokemon. 
So, I lost, but I still got second. 

My prize was two  gym 1 boosters and gym 2.  I traded the pokemon lady one
gym one booster for her japanese fossil booster. 
My rares- Dark Golbat, Misty's Tentacruel, and Giovannis Nidoking. 

Oh, I also got misty's tears, (or the naked misty card)

Props-To the Great fun
Props- To everyone being Great competition...
Props- To Scott Flaherty, my friend, for experiencing his first tourney.

Slops- To the Time I had to Wait.  A MONTH AND A HALF!!  For ONE TOURNEY! 
WAY TO LONG!  Wish we had one every two weeks.  Oh well.
