I started with the arcanine and growlithe with scyther and bill's.I went
first. I used all 4 bills on turn 1 and used magmar to smoke screen for the
next turns. He kept on trying to attack but fliped tailes each time. I sent
up my arcanine and gusted out his wigglytuff and did take down and he sent up
scyther but didn't draw another basic so I flamethrowered for the win!
1-0

He had only 80 or 90 hp basics but they had high retreat cost.He went first.
He tried to build up his fossile Zapdos but I gusted it up and Did take down

his kangaskahn and did take down again he only had likitounge and I did cpu
search for plus power and take down for the win!
