PoJo, with the recent release of the Jungle, I feel
that most of our decks will evolve to include the new
cards. I have modified my earlier deck "Pokémon Power
Slam" to see what these new cards can do to the "old"
decks. No one at the tourney (Sports Cards Unlimited
Durham, NC 6-27-99) had upgraded their decks yet
because it was released there the day AFTER the
tourney. I had to go to North Durham to get these
cards, but it was worth it!

Round One:
Brad vs David (4 Color Deck)

Match One & Two:
Well, he got pokémon out, but no energy. I just dug
into my deck using Kangaskhan and Meowth to eliminate
him.

Round Two:
Brad vs Dani (David's Sister using his deck)

Match One:
Wow, she can play this deck! Thanks to Mankey, I knew
what all my prizes were, then I started to look at her
hand and saw only pokémon so I took a risk and sent
out Scyther against her Charmeleon, energy drained
Charmeleon, then cleaned up with Slash. (Hey, this one
can be used in ANY deck!)

Match Two:
See Round one

Round Three:
Brad vs Andrew (Fighting/Psy)

Match One:
Hrmmm... I only got pokémon from the 102 set in my
hand and he matched them exactly... Say hello to
Potions and Energy Denial! Hitmonchan and Machamp KOed
his Farfetch'd and Machops.

Match Two:
Well, he had to go, so I just beat him quickly because
he wanted to lose on purpose to get his $5.00

-===-===-===-After The Tourney-===-===-===-
Well, I got $7.00 for winning and if you reserved your
Jungle, you got them for $3.50 so I came back the day
after and got 2 Boosters (Rares were Snorlax and
Vaporeon Non-holo)

Andrew wanted to get his Original booster before he
left, so he got it for $5.00

Ben got 3rd place (Andrew played him before me) and
got a Double Colorless and Kadabra with his $3.00

I'm going to tweak this deck and post it next week
after the tourney with results.
