Pokemon Tournament Reports

Alex Bramham (te55eract@hotmail.co.uk) using Raiboketic at Crewe UK on the 4th March 2007.

Turnout: About 8 in each age group

Decklist:

4 Holon’s Castform
3 Pikachu d
3 Raichu d
3 Ekans d
3 Arbok d
2 Togepi d
2 Togetic d
2 Holon’s Magnemite
4 Holon Transceiver
4 Holon Mentor
3 Holon Researcher
2 Holon Adventurer
1 Holon Scientist
2 Scott
1 Holon Legacy
3 Cursed Stone
3 Full Flame
4 Cessation Crystal
4 Metal Energy
3 Double Rainbow Energy
4 Scramble Energy

Until I receive and practice Metanite I've been using a combination of Raichu d, Arbok d and Togetic d. The theme of the deck is fast consistent damage with Raichu d as well as heavy anti-delta with Arbok d and Togetic d. Full flames are used to really pack a punch with burn damage and cessation crystals are used along side Raichu d's Zap for further anti-powers mayhem.

Due to an error in an old TOM version that only came to awareness after Swiss, I was placed in 15+. There were to be three rounds of swiss each best of three. No prize support apart from the boosters and no pins or promos.
Some players have told me that an old TOM version invalidated the tourney.

How my games went:

Round 1 v Jonathon: Tyranicargo

Jon's setup was slow both games and so I picked off his pokémon with Raichu d's metallic thunder.

2-0

Round 2 v Stephanie (manicgiraffe): Flygon ex d

The game was intense, we each built up and destroyed each other's evolutions. The anti-delta pokemon caused a lot of damage and time was called soon after we had both won a game to start a sudden death game. This was close, she delta drew after I had an Arbok. Scientist couldn't grab me the full flame I needed for a 50:50 shot and a double rainbow never turned up. Soon I was left optionless versus a Flygon ex d. Best game I've ever played.

1-1

Round 3 v Lawrence: Lunasol

Zap, zap, zap, zap win x2.

2-0


I was now in top-cut with Josh Platt. I was top in standings because of resistance.

Josh was also using Flygon ex d with Fearow d. After delta drawing a good amount of times, I had ample cessation crystals to stop him doing anything.
A few scrambles after scapegoated basics and double rainbows on Togetic later I won on prizes. The second game was similar.

2-0

So I score a hat-trick and match Kempley winning my third consecutive city championship and I pull a Tyranitar ex dfrom my half-booster box. Come on Regionals and go Metanite! (in the UK Regionals are similar structure to States in the US I think).
