    Hey Pojo!  It's been awhile since I've sent you a deck report, but I have a feeling that this one will change the world of Pokemon forever!  Just for the record, I thought this entire deck out by myself and have been planning it out since the winter of 1999.  I started out by discovering the benefits of baby cards and then translated them.  Not only were all of them extremely powerfull, but it turned out that they can all work beautiful magic when used all together along with other traditional favorites.  Ever since I made this deck, I have never lost.  I have taken down Stalls, Haymakers and Raindance decks like nothing, and coming from an owner of all of these, it is no easy task to win against these monsters of the Pokemon world.  Well, I don't want to bore you with all my explanation and jabbering so here is the deck.  Just keep in mind, This deck will change the world of Pokemon for ever!

(Note) This tournament was "Round Robin" which means everyone faces everyone.  1 match decides the victor so you have to play smart and show no mercy.
 
 
Match #1:  The Neofight vs. a kid with a water and grass deck.
    This first match was too easy.  I had a Scyther up with a Magby and Chansey on my bench.  I got to go first so I started out by putting a fire energy on Scyther and letting the kid go.  He attatched a water energy to his active Poliwag and did a quick 10 damage to Scyther. I drew acard and put down a double colorless energy on Scyther.  I knocked out his Poliwag and drew a prize.  The kid then put up a Hoppip and told me to go.  I evolved my Magby into a Magmar and retreated scyther for Magmar.  I did smokescreen and passed. The kid drew a card and energy removaled my Magmar to try to stay alive.  The next turn, I attatched another fire energy to Magmar and attacked for another knock out, another prize and since he had no more Pokemon left, my first victory of the day.
Record: 1/0
    
Match #2:  The Neofight vs. a kid with a grass deck
 
    This match was even easier than the last!  This time my opponent went first.  He had a Hoppip up and an oddish on the bench.  I had an Elekid up with an Electa buzz on the bench.  My opponent started by placing a grass energy on oddish (don't ask why!)  I drew a card: it was a super energy removal which I decided to save for later.  I put a lightning energy on my benched Electabuzz and retreated my Elekid.  I did Thundershock and paralyzed hoppip.  during my opponent's next turn, a grass energy was put on oddish and he told me to go.  After my card draw, I placed a fire energy on Electabuzz, and did thunderpunch for the first prize.  It went on like that until the last prize when I switched out my Electabuzz for a fully energized Chansey to knockout my opponent's Ivysaur in one single Double Edge!
Record: 2/0
 
Match #3:  The Neofight vs. The Raindance
    O.K. here it goes:  I won the coin flip and had a Pichu up to play, a Scyther, a Magby, a Lt. Surge's Electabuzz, and a Chansey to bench.  My opponent had a Lapras up, and a squirtle to bench.  Since I won the coinflip, I retreated Pichu and put up Electabuzz.  I put an electric energy on him and charged.  Once I got enough for Discharge, I knocked out all of his pokemon with no problem.  Once he finally got up Blastoise, I sent up a Magby since my Lt. Surge's Electabuzz was finally knocked out.  I attacked his energyless Blastoise with Magby's "sputter" which stops all pokemon powers until the end of my next turn.  I continued to do this until Blastoise was at 30 HP and magby was gone.  I put up Pichu and did "Zzzap" for 20 damage. This attack does 20 damage to each pokemon in play with a pokemon power.  On his turn he tried to attack but my baby power prevented it.  I finished the game the way I started it: with Pichu.
Record: 3/0
 
Match #4:  The Neofight vs. David and his Haymaker.
     This match went very fast because all David had up was a Fossil Magmar.  I had a Chansey up with an Elekid on the bench.  David went first and had no energy so passed.  In my first two turns, I got in 2 double colorless energies on Chansey and double edged for the win.
Record 4/0
 
Match #5:  The Neofight vs. an annoying child and his potpouri deck
    I got to go first and put up an Electabuzz.  The kid had a neo electabuzz up and I paralyzed it quickly with a thundershock.  The kid put down a double colorless energy on his dying Electabuzz only to be energy removaled.  I then attatched another lightning energy on Electabuzz to do thunderpunch.  His electabuzz had 40 damage on it and mine had 10.  the kid started to complaine and just walked away.  It was a cheap way to win, but it's not my fault that some people have no patients.  I won by forfeight.
Record: 5/0
 
Match #6:  The Neofight vs. another Haymaker.
    Before this tournament started, I helped this kid rebuild his Haymaker.  The coin flip went to him, and he had up a Rocket's Scyther, with an Electabuzz and a Rocket's Hitmonchan on the bench.  I had a Chansey up with an Elekid, a Magby and a Clefa to bench.  The kid put down a grass energy on The scyther and told me to go.  I put down a fire energy on Chansey and told him to go too.  We both continued to build up our pokemon until I put down a double colorless energy on Chansey and did Double Edge before he could do Blinding Scythe.  I drew a prize.  He sent up Rocket's Hitmonchan and did crosscounter.  On my next turn, I did double edge agais since I had nothing else to loose.  I evolved my Magby into Magmar and got 2 fire energy on him before I knew it.  I wound up winning, although he took half of his prizes!  (Eeeeeeek:  Quote Clefa.)
Record: 6/0
 
Match #7:  The Neofight vs. the dreaded Mr. Mime deck.
    This next kid had a Mr. Mime deck that I had no problem beating.  I simply used my Pichu to wipe out the Mr. Mime and while my Pichu's low cost attack was cleaning up, my benched Chansey was powering up.  When Pichu finally went down, Chansey came in and blew all of my opponent's other flimsey pokemon out of the water.
Record: 7/0
 
Match #8:  The Neofight vs. a strange fire deck
    The reason this deck was so strange was because it simply didn't work and the player had so much faith in it.  I won't bore youy with every miticulous details, so in a nut shell; for every Pokemon she put up, another one of her's went down either to a Chansey  or Lt, Surge's Electabuzz.  I will give her one thing though; that Ninetails was in great condition!
Record: 8/0
I Won!!!
 
    Well thanx alot for reading my report.  Just remember that if this deck ever makes it as big as the Haymaker did to remember me as the origonal inventor.  Oh yeah, and just for the record, I got 3 booster packs.  2 were neo which I got a Darkness energy and a Steelix in and 1 was Base Set which I got an Imposter Professor Oak in. (poo!!)
 
Props:  To Gilbert, the owner of the Adult and Teen Shoppe, for keeping the store in such great condition while we were there.
Slops:  To the Imposter Professor Oak I got.
 
Thanx for reading everyone!
