Hey PoJo.  Today I finally made it to the DCI tourney so I got  my membership
at last.  This will be the end of my Haymaker, as I finally got my 3
Wigglytuff for my new deck.  I took out the Wigglytuff in my old Haymaker
(see Wavemaker by ShaunX in May's reports) because I didn't know what to
expect so used a standard deck that I know I can play well. 

11 Pokemon
3 Hitmonchan
3 Electabuzz
4 Scyther
1 Kangaskhan

22 Energy
3 Full Heal
2 Rainbow

2 Item Finder
3 ER
2 SER
3 GOW
3 Scoop Up
2 Energy Retreivals

I use the basic Beatdown strategy.  All the decks this week were Haymaker,
Rain Dance, or Damge Swap.  Lots of fun.  Next week I'm using a Wiggly deck
I've been wanting to use but couldn't get the cards.  Well here's the
report...

The tourney was five rounds and the best record in each age group won.  I'm
in the 10-14 age group but played people in other groups.

Round 1 v. kid w/ Raindance
    This was pretty much my Hitmonchan and Electabuzz v. his Squirtle and
Articuno.  Killed the Squirtle first turn by searching for a PlusPower (I had
one in my hand) and finished the Articuno off with the Buzz.
    1-0

Round 2 v. another kid w/ Raindance
    This time he only got a Blastoise out against my two Hitmonchans...poor
chap...
    2-0

Round 3 v. teenager w/ Haymaker
    This kid is about the same level as me at Magic but he got a crappy draw.
 I had two Scythers v three of his Hitmons and took them down one by one.  He
did get one Buzz out but I had a powered Hitmonchan out and ready for battle.
    3-0

Round 4 v. kid w/ Damage Swap
     I played this kid before the game and he is the king of stall.  That is
just his specialty.  Luckily, he only got a Chansey and MP Mewtwo out.  It
took 10 turns to finally kill the Chansey w/ my Hitmonchan and then took out
the Mewtwo easily since he used all his PokeCenters on the Chansey.
    4-0

Round 5 v. guy w/ Flames of Rage deck
    He said he'd beat my ass before the tourney.  HA!  He got out two Promo
Arcanines, and 3 Fossil Magmars, so I kept my Scythers in my hand and used
them for CPU Searches and Item Finders.  I pretty much took him down with
Hitmonchans, Scoop Ups, and ER/SER.
    5-0

I won and got two Rocket 1 Ed. boosters and got holo Dark Gyarados and holo
Dark Vileplume.  Cool.
