This was a goofy set up for leauge, but I wanted to check it out.

#1 solar vs. 3 trainer deck.
This poor kid, he had a non-helped deck with no direction. I beat down his
hitmonchan with my tangela until the poison knocked him out. after that we
dicussed his deck and refocusses it for him with a great list of trainers
and pokemon that he had. He was suprized that someone would help him out to
win someday... He did change his deck after the tourney.... and won in
leauge play!
#2. solar vs. fight/ fire.
he mulligan'd, I won the toss. I got pinsir on the table, he hitmonchan. I
beef up pinsir while energy removing the chan. paralized him till i got a
dce and plus powers from my oak... quick game.
#3. solar vs. the big khauna's raindance deck
This guy is cockey and I'm the new guy in the house, and house rules right?
like I said, this place is a little diff. .... So make along story short so
I dont relive this bias match. He one by inginuity of his own making. I did
not argue.
#4 solar vs. Kid with a bunch of cards.
he had a grass type fight.  we went back and forth for a while until both
benches were well stocked and loaded. Whats cool is the pokemon center with
venusaurs trans power. this helped pinsir out in a pinch (no pun
intended...) when the opponite is thinking that its almost gone and then
Bam!! pokemon center! pinsir and two fully stacked venusaurs anilelated his
bench.
#5 tie breaker- solar vs. lord tho gym leader and his rain dance.
He decides as I sit down that were doing sudden death. I can tell that i'm
cramping this guys ego.... He beats down my tangela with articuno and e.r."s
and then polishes him off with a tasty pluspower and freeze dry. He was
sweating bullets! but so relieved!

all in all, I came in third and got a $5. store credit and a holo promo mew
(yes, the new one) for attending the tourney. It was a good time though. Met
some great kids, made some new friends. I shall return.
My solar deck is a real fun deck. With some minor tweaking and tune ups. It
shall be worthy of any dci tourney. Try it!

any Q's and A's, feel free!
