Strategy: Get multiple Typhlosions out and Fire Recharge onto an Arcanine.

Continue Firestorming to get prizes.

Well, the rounds were about to start, so onto the matches.

Round 1

Bryson Bonham w/ Crobat/Umbreon

Well, he is a very skilled player, and gets Crobat out FAST. I eventually

get two typlos out, but get no energy. He confuses an active Typlo and

brings up Umbreon. With me energyless and having nothing to do, he feint

attacked everything of mine =/ . I forfeit with 30 seconds left so he can

get the full points -_-;

0-1

[0 points]

Round 2

Some rand0m w/ Psychic rogue

Well, this seemed like it was gonna be easy, and so it was. I open with a

cleffa and bench Growlithe and Cyndaquil. All I can say is I got Arcanine

going with two Typhlosions and easily cut through his pokemon.

1-1

[3 points]

Round 3

Stephanie Barlock w/ Gatr

This would be a test. We would now see if I had what it took to beat a Gatr.

I open with Cyndaquil, bench a Growlithe. She has totodile active. Oh no.

Luckily, she gets 1 heads =/ I eventually get Arcanine going and Firestorm

through a Gatr and a Croconaw. She could’ve had me, but she played all Gold

Berries. [note to new modified players: play FOCUS BAND!]. With all of her

Gatrs gone, she decked.

2-1

[6 points]

After three rounds, I am in 2nd behind Bryson -_-;

Round 4

Ryan Byrd w/ Slowking/ Steelix/ Rockets Zapdos

Yet another tough match. I had somewhat of an advantage because Typlo could

kill anything in one hit, plus he had Steelix. This was no easy battle

though. I had the advantage at the beginning. He doesn’t get a King out

until the 6th turn. But then things turned in his favor when he topdecked an

Elm. He got a Zappy going with three Electric and a Metal, and it was

cutting through everything. Eventually I built an Arcanine and Firestormed

it, having no Typlos in play =/ Luckily,my prize is a Typlo and I evolve

next turn. Eventually, he gets another Zappy, but I ko it. Left with only an

Onix with 50 damage, he honorably kos himself with a rainbow energy. I win

on prizes.

3-1

[9 points]

Round 5

Bob Bonham w/ E.Victry/Umbreon

This match started out bad for him, and was finished very quickly. He opens

with an Igglybuff active w/ E. Sprout on the bench. I have an active Cleffa

and two Cyndaquils. He goes first. He plays grass on Bellsprout, then focus

band, retreats Iggly, and tries to attack Cleffa. Tails. I attach to

Cyndaquil. Fireworks. Tails. His turn. He uses CARELESS TACKLE, killing

himself w/ no focus flip, and doing only 20 to me. He is left stranded with

Iggly. He draws nothing, while I get a Typlo. Typhlosion Flame Bursts his

lone Iggly, and I get the win. All in a matter of Five minutes =/

Yeah, I get 2nd and tons of DCI. My prize, a Happy B-day Pika =/ I have like

7 now =/
