Hi Pojo and all that are reading.  On June 17, 2000 I went to the STS qualifiers in Dallas, Texas At Valley View mall.  Its a 5 round tourney, starting with 32 people and it has a 20 minute, per round time limit.  I played a deck that I have been developing for quite some time, it revolves mostly around Movie Mewtwos.....well here it is:
Pokemon:
4 Movie Mewtwos
2 Dittos
2 Tauros
 
Trainers:
4 Bill
4 Oak
4 Comp. Search
4 Item Finder
4 Scoops
4 Plus Powers
3 GOW
3 ER
2 SER
3 NGR
2 Goop Gas Attack
 
Energy:
 
11 Physic
4 DCE
 
Round 1 Me vs. J. Campbell
This game was quick, I had a Tauros he had a lone Zapdos.  Three turns and it was over, I won!!
1-0
 
Round 2 Me vs.Ricky Torrico
This kid played a water deck, I think it had a Blastoise, but I never saw one.  Anyway, second turn fully powered Mewtwo, took out his Shellder his Squirtle and an Omynyte(is that how you spell that??)
2-0
 
Round 3 Me vs. P. Wertworth
This kid had A Haymaker type deck.  Second turn fully powered Mewtwo(again) vs. 2 Hitmonchans and a Ditto.  I stripped him of all of his energy with ER's, and finished it with Mewtwo, fourth turn victory.
3-0
 
Round 4 Me vs. S. Zarridast
I would just like to say that this girl gave me a run for my money.  Her original and fresh TR Dragonite deck almost blew mw away.  Any way I started with Ditto, her with a Dratini, I thought it would be a quick match(BIG mistake), killed her Dratini, but she came out with another one, I finally got an Oak ( my Ditto had 10 hp left!!)and got a Tauros started. She killed Tauros, Killed a Mewtwo, But I struck back with Ditto for a kill.  Prizes 5-4, her.  I powered Tauros and killed her Dragonair, I benched her! 
4-0
 
Round 5 Me vs. A. Young
This kid was a great player from what I saw in earlier matches, he had a Blastoise deck but I'm not sure if had TR or what.  I had a Ditto, he had a Squirtle, he paralyzed me and passed.  I know Blastoise decks like anyone because I played one for a long time.  I had to kill the Squirtle.  I Oaked got a Mewtwo and Scoop among other things, scooped and put down Ditto again. Oaked again got a scoop and a Plus Power, got Ditto out and put a PP on him, Oaked again getting a Comp Search and another Oak, Comp Searched for a second PP and Oaked for a third, I got an energy somewhere in there.....1rst turn victory!!!!!
 
I won a hat( I gave it too my cousin), about 10 boosters( I gave 2 or 3 away to my opponents) and the coveted T-shirt( I kept that). Most importantly I will be attending the tournament aboard The Queen Mary!1
