Niantic, CT where: Toys "R" us Pokemon league When: June 16,
2001 Deck: Duck of Death
The tournament that I competed in didn't have
that incredible prizes for second place, but first place had a very nice prizes.
Here is my deck: POKEMON (20) 2 Unknown E 1 Unknown D 1 Unknown

Golduck 2 MP Mewtwo 2 Erica's Jigglypuff 2 Mr. Mime

My first battle
was against a person with an out of the box Blaine deck. He kept on trying to
powerup his Growlithe, but I wouldn't let him. Mewtwo kept hitting him until I
knocked out his last Pokemon and drew my sixth prize. My second battle was
against another novice. He was using a deck with 1 Cyndaquil and 1 Quilava, a
Tyrogue, and a 4-2-1 chain of Caterpie/Metapod/ Butterfree (all Neo 2). Not
much to say here except Xatu killed most of his Pokemon with one hit and when he
finally went down Dark Golduck drew my last two prizes for me. Semi finals -
This was a kid who I play once a week at the Pokemon league. He isn' t that
tough, but his grass deck is very annoying. I can't remember that much of the
game except I kept on ERing his Heracross and Sunkern until Xatu and Dark
Golduck cleaned up. I think that my Erica's Jiggly killed two Chikorita, but I'm
not sure. Finals: This was a good match. My opponent was using a Typhlosion
deck with Dark Rapidash that I helped him modify for the tournament. He started
out with 2 Cyndaquil benched and Ponyta active. I had a Mr. Mime and a Psyduck
on the bench. Natu was active. I went first. I confuse rayed his Ponyta and got
heads. He attached an energy to one of his Cyndaquils and passed. I attached
another energy to Natu and confuse rayed him again. He attached a DCE to Ponyta
and knocked himself out because of the confusion when he tried to attack. He
sent out the energyless Cyndaquil. He attached his second energy to Cyndaquil
and breedered into Typhlosion (Level 55) He attached an energy to Cyndaquil and
fireworksed my Natu. I evolved into Xatu, played Oak, and attached an energy to
Xatu. I knocked out his Cyndaquil in one hit. He sent out Typhlosion, got heads
on fire recharge, attached an energy, and killed my Xatu. I sent out Mr. Mime,
attached an energy, and passed. My opponent used flameburst again and got heads
again. He thought Mime was dead until he remembered the Pokemon Power. I
attached an energy, played 3 ER's, and meditated. He didn't get any basics for
his next turn, so I finished off Typhlosion and won. NOTE: I didn't have an
opponent from the 1/4 finals, so I automatically won. For prizes the kid
with the Typhlosion deck and I were each allowed to choose 4 league promos, and
I received an edition 1 Ivy League Pikachu.
Props: Dark Golduck and Xatu
for willing me the tounament the Pokemon League for the Ivy League Pikachu

Slops: A kid w/ a

battle. If u have Questions or comments, E-mail me at sean1117@msn.com. no hate mail please.
