Yo, it’s General Raikou.  Heres one of my many Deck Reports.  I payed da $2 entry fee and looked around at the decks being played.  I saw mostly feral with some fire and one or two grass.  I had my feraligatr deck from last week already together, so I swapped the 2 cinnabar gym and got ready for some action.  Onto the deck: (I just want to say that I remember who I played, but I forgot the order…)

The Key Strategy: See past reports for key strategy =/

 

Round 1 vs. Chris Genest

An interesting Psychic deck, maybe enough to beat bryson bonham’s crobat, but not my fera.  He got stuck with a MP mewtwo, but I got a croc going quick and just 0wned it with sweep away =\

Record: 1-0 3 points

 

Round 2 vs. Ryan Byrd with fera

Great game, and his stupid little pichu got 2 Kos early, but my fera came out on top being able to KO 2 feras and all those annoying babies =/

Record: 2-0 6 points

 

Round 3 vs. Jim Trenner

Great game indeed.  He got 3 slowkings out, an espeon and an umbreon out.  I got 2 igglies out early and kept his slowkings at bay.  I was able to get anough trainers to work finnally, and was able to 0wn everything.  Not even Balloon Berry could save him. =/

He had only one magby and didn’t draw any babies for at least 8 turns.  My elekid 0wned him like wh0a =\.

Round 5 vs. Karen  

A pretty good game, she got an umbreon going.  I kept not getting totdiles, but I finally did.  It didn’t last much longer for her.
