About 25 people
Hey Pojo fans, this is my second deck report. Today about 25 people
were there. The gym leader was 30 minutes late. There is this kid on the
league that always buys a box of cards, today he told me he bought a box of
Gym Challenge, amazing money power! I played the Nintendo demo set while me
and about 10 other kids waited for the gym leader. But NOW ON WITH THE
REPORT……
Mewtwo and what army?
Pokemon 18
Electabuzz 4 (Bye raindance.) (Buzz)
Scyther 2 (Hey Hitmonchan, take this!!)
Ditto 2 (Replaces the Pokemon I don’t have.)
MP Mewtwo ( Hitmonchan is dead meat.) (MPM)
Mr. Mime 2 ( Two words: Raindance killer.) (MM)
Jigglypuff 3 (Wiggly’s coming!) (Jiggly)
Wigglytuff 2 (Wiggle it to death!) (Wiggly)
Trainers 20
Plus Power 4 (PP)
Professor Oak 3 (PO)
Rocket’s Sneak Attack 2 (RSA)
Super Energy Removal 2 (SER)
Gust Of Wind 2 (GOW)
Mr. Fuji 3 (MF)
Defender (DF)
Energies 22
Double Colorless 4 (DCE)
Electric 7
Psychic 11
Battle 1 vs. Some kind of water deck.
He started with benched Articuno Promo, and Farfetch’d active. I
started with a good hand of my treat, Scyther. He just did not get enough
energies to put up with. He had Gengar out, so I put in Wiggly. I attached 3
DFs to my benched buddies so there wouldn't be a problem. I got his Articuno
out but he retreated. I gusted it out for the win.
1-0
Battle 2 vs. him again with a different deck.
He started staling out while pumping up his Snorlax. All I could do was RSA
and SER his Pokemon. It took me a while, but Wiggly, Scyther and Buzz took him
out.
2-0
Battle 3 vs. him again with same deck.
Just like last time, but this time he started with a Kangaskhan. Like before
Wiggly took him out before he could tell me otherwise.
3-0
Just then, I got my Victory Road booklet.
Battle 4 vs. kid with grass deck.
He started with Pinsir and Electabuzz. My Electabuzz took it out like a charm.
When he took out Pinsir I put out Scyther. I kept putting out DFs so Scyther
could last. He kept paralyzing me until the coin flip gave tails.
4-0
Battle 5 vs. kid with Eevee deck.
I had MM and he had Promo Eevee. Need I say more?
3-1
Battle 6 vs. same kid with same deck.
This was also quick. I had Jiggly, 3 Buzz, and a MPM, while he had the same
thing as before. I started, attached DCE to Jiggly, attached PP, and the match
was over.
4-1
Battle 7 vs. same kid again.
Again he had only an Eevee out. I had Buzzes again, but no Electric energies.
He evolved Eevee into Jolteon, and kept damaging my Buzz. I retreated it and
used MF just in case he had a GOW waiting. After that, I took out a pumped
Mewtwo and killed it in two turns.
5-1
Battle 8 vs. Eduardo’s cousin with Electric/Psychic deck.
He had Promo Buzz out, while I stalled with Buzz. Finally, he takes out my
Jiggly. I kill that thing with 2 hits from MPM. Just then he realizes that he
forgot to draw a prize. It was a Base Mewtwo.
6-1
Battle 9 vs. him again, with same deck.
Just like before, except Base Mewtwo was on the bench. This time Wiggly
did all the dirty work for me.
7-1
After battling, I traded some cards. A Japanese Promo Entei for a holo
Dark Dragonite. I also traded the movie promos Zapdos, Articuno, Moltres,
Brock’s Golem and Onix for a holo Dark Blastoise.
