Around 25-30 People (Pokemon League)

Psycho
Pokemon:  17 Total
2 Mr. Mime (Invisible Wall and Meditateare dangerous)
4 Jynx (Good to start with, 70hp, God I love that number....)
4 Mewtwo (Movie Promo, what else)
4 Gastly (Fossil, I don't want to have to use "Destiny Bond" on them)
3 Haunter (Fossil, awesome power, automatically puts to sleep)
2 Gengar (Curse is awesome, enough said)

Trainers:  20 Total
2 Mr. Fuji (Read on later..........)
2 Scoop Up (NO!!!!! Mewtwo and Jynx won't die yet!)
2 Potion (Why not?)
2 Prof. Oak (If you don't know, don't play)
2 Bill ("")
4 SER (Most devastating card in the game)
4 ER (Take that double color off Jabroni)

Energy:  23 Total
23 Psychic Energy (Were you expecting water???)

    This is an awesome deck, I threw the SER's in to help keep some energy in
the discard pile, a must for Absorption.  Use curse to rack up even more
damage with Meditate, Dark Mind and Curse work well together, and Invisible
wall....enough said.  On to the battles........

I spend the first 5 minutes going through the check out's, I bought 5 Team
Rocket packs, 2 Magneton's (1 foil) Golbat (Foil), Dark Gayardos, Rainbow
Energy.  I didn't like the cards, I started throwing them at little kids,
they could have the commons and uncommons.  I get to keep the rare's

First Match:
Me VS. Henry (Chansey/Alakazam Stall)
Henry, me and him have a past of games, normally, I win.  But this
time.........Not as fortunate.  He gave me 3 chocies, I chose the
Chansey/Alakazam stall, I didn't know what it was, all 3 were upside down. 
it starts out average.  I'm killing his abra's and kadabra's, he knock's out
a Mewtwo, no big deal.  He bring's out Chansey's, I can only hit them for 10
each, that sucks.  He has alakazam on the bench.  Damage swap.  It's time to
change strategy.  I keep energy absorptioning until there's no energy in my
discard pile, retreat and Mr. Fuji.  Brought a whole lot more cards into my
deck.  Eventually, I get down to the final 3 cards in my deck, I was hoping
my other Mr. Fuji was in there, and not in my prizes, I was doing my energy
absorption method again.  I draw my last card, it wasn't Fuji, that pissed me
off.  He drew his, and it was game.  I remebered that I Oaked away my 1st Mr.
Fuji earlier in the game.  He won.
0-1
Match 2,3, and 4
Me VS. Natalie (Vulpix, Spearow/Fearow deck?)
I pretty much dominate her in all three games, she just woudn't give up.  She
will have 30 damage on Spearow, and evolve into Fearow without any energy,
clue why, when I have Mr. Mime ready to meditate for 40......Didn't attack
with Mewtwo the entire 3 games.
3-1
Match 5 and 6
Me VS. Eric (VenaKing deck)
Eric is one of my buds from the Neighborhood, so we play each other
frequently, too bad for him, i win most (99.5%) of the time.  He copied my
VenaKing deck from me, after he couldn't beat it.  These games were no
exception.  I did my normal routine of Psyburning and Mediatating his pokemon
til they died.  I win both games.
5-1
Match 7
Me VS. Li'l Dude #1
Know clue who he is or what he was playing.  Had something to do with putting
his own Mr. Mimes to sleep with drowzee.  I don't think it worked.  They
would go to sleep, and I'd hit them for 80.  I liked his idea.
6-1
Match 8
Me VS. L'il Dude #2 (Thought he was special cause of his 4 Charizards in that
deck)
I start off with 2 Gastly's and Jynx.  I double slap his scyther to death,
and that was game.  I helped him modify his deck, considering he only had 3
charmanders and 2 charmeleons and no Breeders in it.
7-1

All in all, it was a descent day.
