First Day:
Round 1 11-14: Speed Canine VRS Wigglytuff with grass
I started with the arcanine and growlithe with scyther and bill's. 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

Round 2: Speed Canine VRS Likitounge stall
He had only 80 or 90 hp basics but they had high retreat cost. He tried to
build up his fossile Zapdos but I gusted it up and Did take down with
defender. I oaked a few times to get the energy I needed. I guested up 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!
2-0

Round 3: Speed Canine VRS Haymaker
He had hitmonchan and Rockets Hitmonchan and I had scyther as my active. He
never Billed or oaked the whole game. he cross countered alot and got heads
but pretty soon I had my ericas dratini out to fight him and it won the match!

it. I had a crappy hand with 1 fire energy but I smogged alot. I got arcanine
out but he got 2 wigglytuffs to knock it out. He gusted up my growlithes and
