In the finals Dan and I were both able to get our multiple Blazekin out. However, Dan was in not getting draw cards, and I wasn’t getting energy. After, 8 turns Dan got his Delcatty in place on the bench for his draw power with Magneton and Blazekins getting that energy out of his discard pile. I finally started drawing energy and began using it with my Delcatty and putting the fire energy onto my bench with Blazekins. Neither Dan or I were using our Blazekins to to attack. He used Magneton and I used Espeon. What made the difference was Espeon. I used its attack of 20+ (+ 10 damage for every energy attached to all your opponent’s Pokemon.) to K.O. several Pokemon in a row. Dan was able to K. O. my Espeon but I quickly got another one up and running while Dan’s bench was still loaded with energy. The game could of went either way! I was just fortunate.
P.S.
Dan had a secret weapon (Pokemon) to do a lot of heavy damage against my Pokemon. I want to keep it a secret for Dan and Eric. ; - ) because it was a great Pokemon to combo into the deck! I will let them choose to reveal their secret! Great idea Eric and Dan!
