hi kidds........ i would like to take a moment to tell you my story. i 've been playing pokemon for awhile now and i am a little frustrated. the local shop where tournaments are held is full of un-original people. japanese cards are frequently used with the wrong translations, which can be very frustrating. i recently quit playing card games all together because of this. i just got sick of every week playing the same people and their same decks.i always placed fairly high in the tourney, and generally played with different deck ideas every week. then i just quit trying. for about a month, i didn't even look at my cards.then i thought to myself,there's got  to be some way around these people. so i made a trap deck. it took me two weeks to fine tune the flow of the deck.so when saturday finally came , i woke up  got ready and headed for the comic shop.the same ol' kids where there with their same ol' hays and wigglys. i played one guy with a rain dance deck. i won the tourney. my record was 4 - 0. pretty good i think for not having played any one in 2 months
 
 
 
i like pokemon alot. if any 1 wants to discuss trap deck strategy, e-mail me.
