And now what happened at the tournament.

Round 1-VS Matt M. with a Mono/Fighting

I started with Mr. Mime and Scyther and Him a Hitmonchan and Jigglypuff.My
scyther buys me some times while I pump Mr. Mime and a Hitmonchan I get with
a early Oak.retreat scyther and killed hitmonchan it twp turns with Mime.He
sends out Mankey, by now he has 3 in the play area! He sends out his
unpowered Jigglypuff, I retreat Mime and send out Hitmonchan and Jab for 40,
Next turn Special Punch is ready and I kill his Jigglypuff and the 3 Manky's
for a quick win.  He didn't kill a single guy.

Record: 1-0
3 Points

Round 2-VS Cory S. with a Psychic deck

He used Ghastly's, Mr. Mimes and Jynx's the Mr. Mimes and Jynx's I can see
but Ghastly?  Oh Well fairly easy victory.Just mad sure his Jynx could get
ready for meditate and when I did I sent out a Mime.I was bad on his flip he
almost always got 2 heads or 2 tails.so Mime was just beating down everyone,
except against his Mime's When I just meditate for 20, retreat and Jab for
the kill.I win by prizes, he got 2-3 prizes I believe.

Record: 2-0
6 Points

Round 3-VS John D. with a Raindance Deck

This Guy never played Pokemon before, but he learned quick since he is
really a Magic Player, he was a friend of the Store Manager and used his
deck.  Mr. Mime and Electabuzz should tidy things up nicly I think, well I
get a horrible hand...One lone Mr. Mime...All I got is a bunch of energies
and super energy removals...stall with Super Energy Removal when he only has
1 energy on his squirtle until finnaly I get an Oak...He pretty much turned
the game around...Gave a good set of trainers, pokemon and energies, I play
a hitmonchan and scyther down, scoop my beat up Mr. Mime and send Hitmonchan
out to Jab the heck out of Squirtle...He never did get raindance working
that game since I kill alot of his squirtles with S-Punch and Gust of Wind
before any evoulution could begin.

Record: 3-0
9 Points

Round 4-VS Troy S. with yet another Raindance

Again! I start off with 1 Mr. Mime and he has a poliwag and squirtle...Same
story as last round stalled with energy removal to its fullest and a couple
gust to bring out some un-powered  Poliwhirls, this time i got a Comp.
Search and searched for whatelse? Prof. Oak of course! Again he changed the
game around...I got Electabuzz and Hitmonchan...Sent out Hitmonchan to kill
whatever comes in his way...Electabuzz was not much help most of his pokemon
were grass weak so I just used Hitmo. until...Scyther hit the board!  After
Scyther was up and running his Poli's and Whirls died in one swift cut.

Record: 4-0
12 Points

Round 5-VS Alex K. with Damage Swap deck

Never got an abra until the the middle of the game...I killed a squad of
Likitungs and Mimes...got like 3 prizes right there...when he got abra I
just gusted him out and killed him....got the last 3 Prizes like that...2
Gust of Winds and 1 Item Finder killed those 3 Abra's in a jiffy.  Only one
thing annoyed me in that match His Starting pokemon which was a likitung
parylzed 8 times in a row against my Kangaskhan...that pissed me off... but
when I scooped up kangaskahn and ruined his 8 turns of dealing that damage,
I supposed he was equally pissed.

Record: 5-0
15 Points

Round 6-VS Daniel C. with a Fire/Water

Ok now I'm mad...Again I started with Scyther, this could be bad, he starts
with Magmar and Ponyta on the back...He goes first and play a fire
energy...I draw and forced to use a super energy removal when he only has
one...I fear a Fire Punch and Pluspower...That always happens to me, but not
today...I stalled for turn and the next turn I get Mr. Mime...Send him out
and force him to trash to energies to retreat for a Charmander...when I go I
gust back out Magmar and pump my new found bench up...He is again forced to
trash 2 energies since I will not attack him...By now I bought my self
enough time to pump my Hitmo. he goes out and I try to kill as many as
possible, He only had 4 basics and I KO'ed them all, so I win!

Record: 6-0
18 Points

Round 7-VS John Y. with a Mono/Fighting

I start with Hitmo. and Electabuzz ...he goes and gust out buzz and kill
him...I am having serious energy problems so I just Itemfinder for a Bill! 
I get a Oak and Scyther...perfect...Scyther goes down and I oak...get a
scoop up and scoop hitmo up and scyther goes out...Scyther kills a bunch of
fighting pokemon and only took 10 damage from a Dodou.  He stalled for a
long time with Super Potions and Potions...but eventually scyther cut
everything into a bloody mess.

Record: 7-0

Well I went undefeated this week and this tournament was the best one I have
played and been to...I won a Zap! Deck and one Jungle Booster...The Store
Manager wouldn't give me Blackout because it was selling to good along with
Overgrowth...so I'm forced to have a measly Zap! Theme Deck...Oh well it
comes with 2 Bills and a Oak thats pretty good cant never get enough of
those guys.  In the booster I got a non-holo Vaporeon...Joy! :) LoL!

PROPS to Deja Vu for having another well organized tournament for little
money.

PROPS to Hitmonchan for killing everything in almost all my games.

PROPS to My mom driving me there.

SLOPS to Deja Vu for not letting me choose what theme deck I wanted.

SLOPS to Alex K. for make the tournament extra long with his deck.

SLOPS to My mom for not driving me home.

Thats all for this week...as for next week I may not go since school is
starting on Tuesday...Cya next week if none of my new teachers assign some
major project on the first week of school :)
