roughly 20 participants
 
 
      I just joined the League a few weeks ago and am still working toward the boulderbadge. I decided to wake up early and go to the league.So any way heres the deck and the report.
 
Fast Metronome:
 
Pokemon (15):
3 Clefairy
3 Clefable
2 Hitmonchan
3 Ditto
1 Hitmonlee
3 Magmar (fossil)
 
Trainers (24):
3 Professor Oak
3 Bill
4 Energy Removal
1 Item Finder
3 Pluspower
2 Nightly Garbage Run
3 Computer Search
3 Gust of Wind
2 Scoop Up
 
Energy (21):
8 Fire energy
9 Fighting energy
2 Full Heal energy
2 Double Colorless energy
 
 
 
I made this deck a few days ago and playtested it against my brother. This deck went undefeated against my brother and worked great. The strategy is to hit hard with low energy. Magmar and Hitmonchan are both very fast. Clefable is the main hitter in this deck qnd usually always gets me 3 or more prizes. Most people don't use Clefable but he is one of the best cards in the game. Even though Clefairy is guite weak I usually always have a Clefable to evovle it. Ditto helps out a lot especially with Double Colorless energy. The trainers help with the speed of the deck. I use a lot of Computer Search, Professor Oak, and Bill to get Clefable out in battle and plenty of Magmar, Hitmonchan, and Ditto to hit hard and fast.
 
 
 
Battle 1: Me vs. Gym Leader with psy\grass
This was a slow match since he always had to stop to give points to people. I got out a Clefable 2nd turn and used it to KO 2 Bulbasaur and an Abra. I got a Ditto, a Magmar, and aHitmonchan on my bench and got them fully pumped. He tried to get out a movie Mewtwo but I energy removaled it  and KOed it. I got another Clefable on my bench. He sent out a Scyther and I energy removaled is DCE. I got him down to 10 HP before he KOed my Clefable. I sent out Magmar and used smog for the win because he had no bench.
Prizes: 1-5
Wins-Loses:1/0
 
Between battles: I translated my Ancient Mew and got a holo Mew, Computer error, and the holo Eevee. I watched some people battle and waited for my next opponent to finish his battle before I challenged him.
 
 
Battle 2: Me verses 12 year old with Electric/grass (Raindance Zapper?) 
He was nice and made anti-archetypes decks. The last match he used his Haybreaker deck and this match I think he used a Raindance Zapper but I'm not sure. We started the match with his buzz vs. my Magmar. I went first and smokescreened his Electabuzz. He layed an energy on electabuzz and benched Lt. Surges Pikachu. He tried to thunder shock but failed due to smokescreen. I benched Ditto attached an energy to Magmar and smogged with Poison leaving him with only 30 Hp. He evolved his Lt. Surge Pikachu into Lt. Surge Raichu and attached an energy to the Raichu. I attached a DCE to Ditto and smogged for the KO. he sent out Raichu, attached an energy to it, benched scyther, and used Mega Punch for 30. I attached an energy on Ditto and energy removaled it twice so it had no energy. I smogged with poison. He attached a DCE to Scyther and passed. I smogged and poison killed him. He sent out Scyther, attached an energy and slashed. During my turn I smogged with no poison. He attached a PlusPower and slashed for the KO. I sent out Ditto and slashed for the win since he had no bench.
Prizes:3-5
Wins-Loses:2-0
 
 
Between battles: I just walked over to my next battle and started.
 
 
Battle 3: Me vs. kid with psychic deck
This was an easy battle because all he had was psy pokemon against my Colorless. He had a well built deck though.  I got out a Clefable on my 3rd turn and started copying his psy pokemon's attack he got out a lot of good Pokemon but they were helpless against Clefable. He finally lost by me taking all the prizez but was a good sport about it.
Prizes:0-6
Wins-Loses:3-0
