I think this can be an interesting topic, to see what decks dominated the CC's, and to have an idea what to expect at States/Nationals/Worlds. So after your CC, post the Top 2 Decks (by category).

the aggron cradily deck really surprises me, i thought no one really liked the idea when i posted it ;) keep 'em coming people!
 
Ames, Iowa

10-Under: Ludiculo, Vaporeon (Sandstorm), Azumarill (Sandstorm), and Pelipper (Ruby/Sapphire)
11-14: Kabutops (Skyridge), Kabutops ex, Crawdaunt, Ampharos ex
15-Over: Salamence, Kingdra (Aquapolis), Magmar ex

We did not see any of the real powerhouses, but then again we have always had the trend of seeing some very creative/unique decks here in central Iowa.
 
I remember at the Renton, WA there were 2 4-1s in 2nd & 3rd for 11-14 which were Garde/ex/Wobbuffet & Aggron ex/Wailord/Furret. There was a big tie in 15+ so I don't remember the 2nd-3rds. 10-'s 2nd didn't get too high. This is if you want more than the 1st places as it appears.
