Okay, so, I was 1943.XX going into Nationals. I was planning to go 6-0 drop or something like that. However, I never made it that far. I also would of been 12th if I had dropped after R4. However, here is my report.
I was playing R-Gon.
Round 1 - ???????? - (Arcanine Ex/Garde Ex)
He is completely weak to 2 of my pokemon who can 1hko him.
1-0
Round 2 - Dave Coleman II - (Ambush)
I having know the matchup having playtested 1 game the night before just run right thru him with a well placed Briney and Stump.
2-0
Round 3 - ????????? - (ElectaNite)
This game was absolutely intense. I go way down at the beginning. I thought I was gonna lose. He was able to KO 2 Pokemon before I could ko his Draggy Ex. He is up 4-6/3-4/2-3 in Prizes. I end up using a Warp Point to KO his Electabuzz with Flygon d. He sends up Lugia Ex with 1 Nrgy and Time is called on his turn. We are currently tied on Prizes. He doesnt have the Castform so he sends up Electavire and does 30 due to resistance. I draw play down my last of 3 Mew's (2 Fire/1 Water) Use both of my 2 Flygon d attachments. As I have 2 Flygon d + Flygon Ex in Play. So, I have 3 Nrgy to Mew and I need 4. So I use Mr. Briney on my active pokemon, and then send up Mew d. I play down Trapinch and RC it to a Flygon d and supply again FTW.
3-0
Round 4 - ????????? - (Empoleon/Eeveelutions)
I use Eggs and Ray d to win.
4-0
So if I "had" dropped here I would of been 1975.XX however I didnt think that going 4-0 would of been enough.
Round 5 - Micheal Chin - (Ambush)
I get an absolutely horrible start and I cannot recover from it. I get the game tied 3-3 however time does me in. If game was another 10 min I had him. However it isnt so I lose on time.
4-1
Round 6 - Jimmy Ballard - (Ambush)
So, I end up having to play up to Jimmy. We start to get setup and then just as we about to start "Deck Check". So finally we start and get a time extension. During my first search of my deck I find out both of my Ray Ex d are prized which is not good. However after managing to "scrape" 2 prizes and pull 1 Ray ex d I am able to do decently. However, controversy comes in here. I not relizing I am winning forget to attach to Ray Ex d with a Flygon Ex d with 110 dmg on the bench. So, I cant ko his active Pokemon, and we both dont notice and I ko his Empoleon supposely. We both dont catch it but at Judge does. I put the prize back (Windstorm) and the Judges go have a discussion about it. I get a warning and we get a 2 min time extension. So, Jimmy ko's my benched Flygon Ex d. I ko him back with Ray ex d. He sends up Prinplup and Evolves attaches and does 70 (I think). I go, time is called I just Special Circuit the Roselia with Ray ex d and win.
5-1
Round 7 - ????????? - (Delta)
Flygon Ex d/Eggs. Need I say More??
6-1
So 1 win in my next 2 games gets me in.
Round 8 - Nick K. - (Lucario/Eeveelutions)
2 Misplays due me in. Good game tho.
6-2
Round 9 - Leo Orta - (Rhyperior)
Yeh Autoloss for FTL.
6-3
39th Place. Very Dissapointed.
Props -
Trading JPN Items.
Jimmy B. for Making a Great "SD" for Nationals, Very Impressive.
Jimmy B. for being a great sport in our game after my huge blunder.
John Silvestro for having an absolutely disgusting weekend. 3rd in both the Prof Cup and Nats.
Chris Fulop for winning Nats
Slops -
0-2 at then end to miss the cut.
Bye in last round of Prof Cup so I cant go 0-7 in 07.
If I missed anything LMK.
Otherwise Thanks For Reading,
