Holy hell what a finals Game 1, they started Articuno, which ended up being their downfall. Learning from the game in R4, I used my Bravery Charms on the Munkidoris to make them require 2 supporters for Honchkrow to KO; not a big ask, but enough extra to dissuade them from consistently being able to target them. Got the 2-prize turn I needed at the end and took the game. Game 2, we hit a relative brick. Looked at an early scoop, but instead managed a way out until eventually I missed a Rare Candy to get Gardy back up late-game. Scooped it there to save that bit of time for Game 3 Game 3 was looking favorable since they weren't in the best spot, but unfortunately we hit time. In time, the only had 2 Honchkrow on board, but had a Porygon and Articuno in hand to deny the win. In hindsight, I probably should have just scooped game 2 earlier, but tough to make that call for sure. In sudden death, I went first; I atrached to Drifloon and passed wirh Ralts benched. They Giovanni'd my Ralts active to deny me the energy retreat to discard and passed. On turn 2, I had the option of Arven for Rare Candy and guarantee no attack, or Research for Rare Candy, either other Gardy or Night Stretcher, and an energy + a way to discard it to secure game. I chose the Arven, and unfortunately they had Ariana for 5 to find the 3 supporters needed for game Overall incredible set, I definitely made mistakes but in such a difficult matchup, I'm not upset about it
