The 2010 Pokémon World Championship saw a changing of the guard as America’s Ray Rizzo took the Masters Division video game championship from Japan.
The Championships, held in Kona, Hawaii from August 14 to 15, boasted 375 players from 25 countries. Competitors battled it out for two days with hopes of winning either the video game or trading card game title in one of two age groups.
Rizzo, who hails from Marlton, New Jersey, defeated Yasuki Tochigi in the final round to take the Masters video game title. The Junior video game title went to Shota Yamamoto of Japan. For the Pokémon Trading Card Game championship, Canada’s Jacob Lesage won the Masters title and Yuka Furasawa won for Japan in the junior division.
Winners received prize packages that include scholarships and travel expenses to defend their title in the 2011 championship.

Welcome to the 4th major release of The Pallet Tribune. Most of the changes to the site this time around are organizational. You’ll find that the front page and forums have a new look. (If you can’t see the new look in the forums, go to the bottom of this page and change your forum skin). The links on the front page have been reorganized and made simpler; many sections of the forums have been cleaned up and we are super excited to get TPT back in gear. Join us tonight for a UStream broadcast at 8PM EDT. See you there!
Update: Here is a link to the recording of the live show.

Pwnemon’s Card of the Week: Blastoise
25
Jul 2010
Hello; Pwnemon here, bringing you the card of the week! This time, as in every four editions, I’m reviewing a deck! And, as you know you can’t have a deck without a fancy name, give it up for BFF!
This guy would totally love to be your BFF.
The name of the deck actually derives from its three main Pokemon: Blastoise, Feraligatr Prime, and Floatzel GL Lv. X. Feraligatr Prime keeps popping up in my reviews like a bad penny, but this is really the best use for him so I won’t abuse him any more, OK? Anyway, the point is to set up all three of these guys as fast as possible using cards like Broken Time Space and Interviewer’s Questions. Then, with Rain Dance, you’ll be firing off 100 damage to whatever the heck you want until Blastoise dies. BUT THAT’S NOT ALL! With this limited time offer, Floatzel GL’s Water Rescue puts everything that is discarded when Blastoise dies right back in your hand, so by the next turn you’re still doing 100s like hamsters run on wheels!
This deck isn’t uncounterable, obviously. It takes a little while to set up, and even then Luxray GL just stomps all over you with an OHKO of Floatzel with Bright Look, and anything that sends you to the Lost Zone upon a KO pretty much ruins your mood. But overall this is a pretty chill deck.
