Hi, PoJo fans! It's Ry, the Pokefreak here! And I'm going to do a deck
report! The tournament was held at the Danger Room in Anderson, Indiana on
June 24, 2000. There were about 14 people there. The format was a 6 round
Swiss style tournament. 2 points for a win, 1 point for a tie, and 0 points
for a loss. Now, without any further ado...... The Haymaker Deck! *random
boos and hisses are heard throughout the audience*
4 Hitmonchan
4 Eclectabuzz
4 Machop
1 Scyther
11 Fighting Energy
11 Electric Energy
2 DBC
4 PlusPower
4 Gust of Wind
4 Energy Removal
3 Bill
2 Professor Oak
2 Scoop Up
2 CPU Search
2 Super Energy Removal
Round 1: vs. Ryan with a Raindace deck:
Well, my only basic was Electabuzz, while he had about 4 Laprases. He only
got 3 energy throughout the whole game, and I mopped him up with Electabuzz.
2 POINTS
Rouns 2: vs. David with Colorless and Fire:
It started out with Hitmonchan versus Charmander. I jabbed him with
PlusPower. He used Scratch. I jabbed him again for the KO. He brought up
another Charmander, and I knocked it out quickly too. He didn't get enough
Energy for the rest of the game, and I won again.
4 POINTS
Round 3 vs. Brandon with Fighting and Colorless:
Well, Brandon got the first few prizes, and I was worried. He had oonly 2
prizes and I had 5. Fortuneatly, he had an energy crisis and I got a hand
full of Trainers. Eventually, I took the next five prizes and won.
6 POINTS
Round 4 vs. Robbie with Extinction
Man, Robbie has an awesome deck. He's won a great deal of tournaments with
it, and he was one of the only other undefeated people there.
We started of with his two Scythers versus my two Hitmonchans. It took a
while, but both of us got some more pokemon. We each took two prizes, and it
was 4-4. Then Robbie started taking control. He jabbed, Slashed, Meditated,
and Psyburned until he was down to 1 prize. I made a comeback though, and I
had 2 prizes left, but I seemed to be in control. Then he started
retreating. I couldn't knock out any of his pokemon, and eventually I decked
myself.
6 POINTS
Round 5 vs. Jon with Mewtwo/Wiggly deck
I can't believe this guy! He called me gay because I watched DBZ! That guy
has some nerve! Of course, I responded by beating him soundly with
Hitmonchan. NEVER insult the Pokefreak.
8 POINTS
Round 6 vs. Zack w. Fire Haymaker
Well, he was at an energy crisis throughout the game, and I beat him. His
Fossil Magmars were no match for my Hitmonchans and Electabuzzes.
10 POINTS
Well, I got 3 packs for getting 2nd. I got a pack of Base2, a pack of
Fossil, and a pack of Rocket. I got an Electrode, a Dark Weezing, and a foil
fossil Magneton. All in all, fairly decent prizes.
Time for WOOO!s and BOOO!s
WOOO!s to Robbie for winning 7 tournaments with his Extinction deck (better
than Sponge, better than Potpourri)
WOOO!s to the foil Magneton in my packs
WOOO!s to Haymaker
BOOO!s to Jon for making fun of me and DBZ
BOOO!s to everyone who hates Haymaker, it is awesome!
Well, that's it. Send all fanfare or flames to:
