I was also afraid he would be playing Gengar/Machamp/ Mewtwo LV. My record against JP players isn’t exactly the best one, standing at 2-3. When I saw I was facing a JP player right off the bat, I got a bit nervous.
Round 1 vs Akira Nakatani (JP) – Luxray GL / Infernape 4 (?) Pairings are finally posted after a long openening ceremony, and I am feeling good about being there and being able to compete for the 5th time at Worlds. X counter, and a very effective one at that. The rest of the cards are very standard, and I figured I wouldn’t waste my time with a single Warp Point or Night Maintenance, as they are cards I cannot search directly for when I need them. I think this list finds an extremely good balance between consistency and tech cards that allow me to play against mirror matches (Raichu GL) and abuse board control even more by direct quick bench damage ( Honchkrow G). Here is the list I used during the tournament: Pokémon: 24 My build was fairly standard, and the most consistent it could possibly be in my opinion. My deck choice for this year was the renowned Palkia Lock deck. I knew I did not practice enough, and I even chose a deck I wasn’t very comfortable with, as it doesn’t come close to matching my preferred playstyle of decks that have potential to 1HKO whatever Active Pokémon the opponent has. I had low expectations of this years tournament, given how it was my less active season out of the 6 I have played in. I earned my invite this year by a trickle down by obtaining 5th place at the Mexico National Championships. I only played in 5 tournaments total before Worlds (2 BR’s, 1 CC, 1 SC and the National Championships). Hello everyone! My name is Pablo Meza, and I am a TCG Pokémon player from Mexico, this is my tournament report for the 2009 Pokémon TCG World Championships.
