     Hi Pojo,
I'm back with another deck. I will have a few more comming. Well I went to
the Gym Heroes Prerelease Tournament. Sorry for a late report. First of all
before I tell you about the deck I have to tell you that you had to reserve
for it on the Wensday before the tournament at 10:00 in the morning. Well I
kept calling starting at 9:59 and I got through and reserved my brother, my
two friends, and me for the 2:30 18 people tourny.( there were two 18 people
tournys that day). So when saturday came I went to the regular 10:00 league
event for with my friends and brother and I ended up with my cascade badge
before the tourny. When it came we got there on time an right when they were
calling our names. The fee was $1 and you got a prerelease Misty's Seadra
and two Gym Heroes boosters free. Well i'll start my report now.

    My deck was a original Haymaker at first. Then I decided to experiment
one morning. I replaced my Hitmonchans with Hitmonlee's noticing Hitmonlees
can be better, and switched my base Magmars with fossil ones. Then I leveled
out my energys better and added Kangaskhans. Then my trainers got modified,
and at the end it was the best deck I made yet. (Every card in the deck was
not past the fossil expansion so I loaded it on the tcg for gameboy and got
to practice). By the way this was my first tourny.

Hitmonlee Haymaker:

12 Pokemon:

3 Hitmonlee
3 Magmar (fossil)
3 Electabuzz
3 Kangaskhan

18 Trainers:

3 PlusPower
3 Gust of Wind
4 Energy Removal
2 Switch
2 Energy Search
2 Bill
2 Super Energy Removal

30 Energys:

9 Fighting
9 Fire
9 Electric
3 Double Colorless



Well the tourny was not an elimation tourny. You were assigned a random seat
out of the 18 and when you heard your name the next person called would be
your opponent. Then when each match was done (15 min time limit) you would
rotate. You could not battle a the same person twice. There was only enough
time for 7 matches. I will say as much as I can remember. Names will be a
problem.


Round 1:
vs. a 16 year old
I came close here I got a good hand at the start we stalled each other
through out the game. We only knocked out 3 prizes each. When time was
called it was a draw, but he had more pokemon.

0-1

Round 2:
vs. a kid
Ok this kid got his fully charged blastoise against my electabuzz it was
down to 10 hp but it was one on one and I parilized it and Thunder punched
it after the shock the previos turn and boom 80 damage.WIN!

1-1

Round 3
vs. another kid
Ok I got a good hand, I put up a electabuzz and two magmars on my bench.
After the first 12 turns I finally knocked out his one active. He had a
clefairy doll he put up. and he had no other pokemon. so goodbye clefairy.

1-1

Round 4
vs. my friend Micheal McCarn
Here was a challenge he was good and he had practicly the same deck except
he modifiyed it in his own way. This one ended quick he snaped through my
hitmonlee with his hitmonlchan. I had no other pokemon so lose again.

1-2

Round 5
vs. other friend Sasha McCarn
Well Sashas 7 so I got through him quick there really wasn't much to it. I
knocked all of his pokemon out with my Fully charged Kangaskhan.
6 prizes all drawn.

2-2

Round 6
vs.a newcomer
So I started with a Magmar. I got it fully charged and knocked out 3 of his
pokemon to win with 60 damsge on magmar. But there wasn't to much against
him beacuse I had to show him what he was doing wroung every turn. So he was
a breeze. Poor guy.

3-2

Round 7
vs. a guy from my pokemon league
He was a talker he said what he got each time. but he was disqualified for
cheating. I got a win though.

4-2

Round 8
vs. my brother Timmy
well he was in a bad mood to start with because he had only won once.
He played good though and it was the longest game. He got his Dark vaporeon
up and kept on biting my kangaskhan. I just kept on sending up kangaskhans
and others to stall him for the last turn. When time was called I had more
pokemon no prizes drawn.

5-2


Well I came in 5th place.

Prize 1 Gym Heroes Booster.

My Friend Micheal McCarn got 4th Place.

His Prize 2 Gym Heroes Boosters.
