It's mainly a haymaker variant that uses speed and disruption to take the win.

I took out the scythers a few weeks ago and put in chansey to help beat sneasel.

The tournament was a double elimination and the players in it were, me,Matt,Will,Chris,Bouma and Ben.Let's start with the matches

 

Match 1 vs. Ben

Ben had a weird dark alakazam deck.He usually plays a wigglytuff deck but he wasn't expecting a tournament so he didn't bring it,Oh well.I started with a rocket's zapdos active and a electabuzz benched.He had a TR psyduck active with 2 Erika's Oddish(gym challenge) and a TR abra benched.He went first and used psyducks dizziness to draw a card.I attached a lightning energy to rocket's zapdos,searched for the oak,got a PP and took the KO with plasma.He sent out a Erika's oddish,attached a psy energy to his TR abra,evolved into dark kadabra and passed.I played a fire energy on rocket's zapdos(has 3 energy on him now)attached a plus power and oaked.I hoped to get a 2nd plus power so I could plasma for the KO but I didn't get it so I just plasmed for 30.He attached a psychic energy to benched dark kadabra and passed.I drew,played a chansey,attached a lightning to benched electabuzz,GOWd out his dark kadabra and electroburned for the KO.He got another dark kadabra out and promoted it but I Super Removed it and continued to beat him down with electabuzz,rocket's zapdos and chansey.In the end he forfeited saying there was no way he could win

1-0

(In between matches)

In the other rounds Bouma beat Will and Matt Beat Chris.I battled Bouma in the 2nd round while Will played Chris and Matt got a bye.

 

Round 2 Vs Bouma

He played a wigglytuff deck with mewtwos,chans and chanseys in it.I went first and drew a pretty bad hand.All I got were 2 fossil magmars,some lightning energy and no searching or card drawing.So in other words if I didn't draw a oak or something I was doomed.Anyway the game starts, him with Hitmonchan me with Magmar.I drew a fire energy attached it to magmar and smokescreened for 10.He attached an energy to hitmonchan and jabbed for nothing.I draw a lightning energy, attached it to benched magmar(in case I got a SER) and smokescreened.He attached a fighting to hitmonchan,Oaked,placed a jigglypuff on the bench and jabbed for 20.I drew a Nightly Garbage Run and smokescreened.He started laying some basics on his bench,evolved jiggly to wiggly,play Plus Power,attached psychic to chan and special punched.He got heads on smokescreen and KOd my magmar.I drew something that didn't help me,sent out magmar and passed.He eventually got out wiggly,filled his bench,used Plus power and Did the Wave for 70 which gave him the win.If I could have got better draws I could have won this one.

1-1 

(In Between Matches)

Well Will lost to Chris which meant he was out.So in round 3 I battled Chris while Matt battled Bouma.

 

Round 3 Vs. Chris

Chris is a good guy and player.He was using a rain dance for the tournement.It was a critical match for both of us.If I lost I was out and the same way with Chris.I started with a electabuzz him with articuno.He went first,attached a water to cuno and passed.I played a rocket's zapdos and Oaked.I attached a lightning to electabuzz and thundershocked with tails.He played a squirtle and Oaked.He played another cuno and 2 more squirtles.He attached to articuno and passed.I played a chansey,attached to buzz and punched for 30 while I took 10.

He pokemon breedered to dark blastoise,attached water to cuno and freeze dryed electabuzz with a tails.I drew attached to benched zapdos,SER articuno,Item Findered for CPU search,used it,got gust,brought out dark blastoise,attached plus power and thunder punched for the KO with 10 to my self.He sent out cuno,gusted brought out chansey and passed.I drew(oak hehe) scooped chansey,played chansey,attached DCE to chansey,sent out buzz and thunderpunched for the KO with 10 to myself.He sent out a squirtle,attached to it and bubbled for 10 which was KO.I sent out rocket's zapdos and oaked.Chris kept thinking I was gona deck but I knew what I was doing.I attached a lightning to zapdos and plasmed for KO and got a lightning back from the discard pile.He sent out a articuno,played a couple of lapras and passed.I drew,played garbage run,put some fire energy and a chansey back,attached fire energy to zapdos and plasmed for 20.He played a Bill but obviously didn't get anything good cause he passed.I attached a lightning to zapdos(full powered) and electroburned for the KO.He sent out lapras and passed.I played another chansey, attached DCE to the chansey that already had a DCE on it and electroburned for the KO.He sent out another lapras,attached water to it and water gunned for the KO.I sent out chansey and doubled edged for KO and the win.

2-1

(In between matches)

Well Matt lost to Bouma so Bouma won the tournament but me and Matt still played to see who came in second

 

Round 4 Vs. Matt

Matt's my best friend.He brought his koga's muk deck for fun because he didn't know there was gonna be a tournament so I let him borrow my trapper deck because, well, his koga's muk deck isn't exactly tournement material.Anyway I started with an electabuzz active and some other buzzes benched.He had a electabuzz.He got off a first turn trap which got rid of my hand(sigh).For the rest of the game I tried to stall in hopes that I could draw something.I drew a CPU search one time but I didn't have enough cards in my hand to use it right away and then he Snuck Attacked it away.A little later on I had like 3 cards in my hand and I had an electabuzz active with 30 on it while he still had his electabuzz active.He thunderpunched me if it was heads it was over and he won and it was....heads.I looked at what I would have drawn if I wouldn't have got KOd and it was a (sigh) computer search.Oh well all is fair love and pokemon(yeah right).

2-2

 

Well that was the end of it.I got 3rd place but I didn't get anything for it(all they were giving out was promo cleffa's anyway).I did have fun and that is the point right?Time for props and slops:
