Hey this is Breton on Ian's Chico-Screename. (I'm too lazy to make one myself)
I got 1st place at Colorado cities, 11-14 with the very original deck, Nidoqueen. (I had no choice. It wasn't an exact replica tho)
Here's my report:
Round 1: vrs Web (Eeveelution with wierd basics like tauros & kangaskahn)
I go 2nd and get a 1st turn Queen & Pidgeot! (That was lucky)
I toxic him early game and get a couple early KO's.
He gets a Jolteon & Flareon out pretty quick. In the end he KO's a couple Queens but I get all 6 prizes & win.
(1-0)
Round 2: vrs Kevin (T2 Dark Sloking)
I go 2nd (Again), and get a 1st turn Pidgeot + Queen (AGAIN)
He didn't seem to get much of anything,(bad draws) so I easily win from there.
We play again for fun and he almost beats me getting a 2nd turn Sloking.
I walk off and get ready to play my next match.
(2-0)
Round 3: vrs Sandra (with Salamance Ex/Water Cylone Swampert)
She goes 1st and uses Luvdisc to grab a Bagon. I end up getting a Nidoqueen and Toxicing Luvdisc.
She lays down 2 Luvdisc on the bench and evolves Bagon to Shelgon.
Luvdisc dies. She brings up Shelgon but can't seem to get a Salamance EX.
I KO Shelgon and in the end, all she has left is a Luvdisc and a Suicune EX active. I KO that with Power Lariat+Desert Ruins.
(3-0)
So lunchbreak comes around and after eating Sushi that's truly made by a master, I go and get ready for Round 4.
Round 4: vrs CJ (Feraligatr UF/Poliwrath UF/Articuno EX)
I go 1st and start off with 1 Nidoran active and 1 Benched. I have no energy. I pass.
He attaches to his benched Totodile and passes. I have to keep passing for a few turns. By the time I finally get a Nidorina, and use her attack, He evolves to Feraligatr, brings it up and KO's me.
So, from there it looks like I'm done for. I sacrifice a couple Nidorans and Feebass, and finally his Feraligatr is down to 30 hp. He has a Poliwrath sitting on the bench getting powered. I KO 'Gatr with Pidgeotto, and he brings up his 2-energy Poliwrath and hits me for 10 damage due to Resistance. I topdeck a Celio, Grab a Pidgeot, Quicksearch for Candy, Rare Candy to Nidoqueen, and Toxic Poliwrath. Poliwrath hits me for 90. I retreat and bring up Pidgeot and do 40 damage. He hits Pidgeot for 60. It looks like both my main hitters are about to die (and Feebass is already dead) So I play my 4th and final Copycat, I evolve my Benched Nidorina (with 1 energy already on it) to a Queen, attach Double Rainbow and KO Poliwrath.
He gets another Gatr benched and starts to power it. By this time, he has only 1 prize left to my 3.
I know that all he needs is 1 prize, so I need to make sure that none of my Poke's die. I Quicksearch for Retriever, and grab Feebas from Discard. I KO his active Poke. He brings up Gatr and hits Queen for 80. Now is when I Feebas/Candy/Milotic to heal hundreds of Damage (literally)
I admin him down to 1 and Desert Ruins kills his benched Articuno EX for my Last 2 prizes.
(4-0)
*Whew,.... that was the hardest match I had all day. I wipe the sweat off my forehead and look up to see Alex(my smart-alec friend/rival) saying "Dang it I thought you were gonna lose."
Whadooyoo know..... next Round I end up playing Alex himself...
Round 5: vrs Alex H. (Eeveelution/Birds)
I just wooped him.
5-0
So I make it into the Top 8 undefeated.
And the first person I play is......
Round 6 <Round 1 in Top 8> : Sandra (with Salamance Ex/Water Cylone Swampert)
Game 1:
She goes 1st and grabs basics with Luvdisc.
I use Nidoran's call for family.
We both start getting set up.
She brings up Salamance EX and uses Flame Jet on my Nidoqueen.
I use Toxic. She uses Flame Jet again. I Power Lariat for 30.
She KO's Queen. I bring up another Queen and KO Salamance.
She lays down Suicune EX. I play Desert Ruins. She brings up her Magcargo and uses Knock Over to get rid of Desert. I get another Desert and KO Cargo. She brings up a Slugma, evolves to Cargo, and uses Knock Over again. Magcargo eventually dies, and she hits Nidoqueen with her Suicune EX. I play my last Desert Ruins and KO Suicune with Power Lariat+Ruins.
Game 2:
She dosen't get much of a Setup, and I win.
6-0
Round 7 <round 2 in top 8> vrs Chris A (Dark Steelix/Milotic)
He gets a 2nd turn Steeix with 2 Darkness and A Metel. I get a Nido and Toxic. He lifeherbs and gets rid of all damage plus Toxic and attaches another Metal and does 40. I Toxic and his 2nd Lifeherb fails so he kills my Nido and I get another one and take-out his Steelix and he does not get anything after that.
So next game he gets a 2nd turn Steelix with 2 darkness and a Metel. Same thing happends pretty much.
7-0
Final round vs Alex H.

Game 2
