PokйMon Tournament

Hello, my name is Emile Birou and I am a PokйMon Trainer. As you can tell, I am excited that Nintendo is celebrating 10 years of PokйMon. When the national championship tournament was announced, I was overjoyed and was ready to make plans to get going. With my PokйMon play time equaling 2\% of life, my 3,500+ cards, and my game systems I knew I was ready after all my hard work. I have been doing much research and have found that I need about 3 months to train my ultimate team that I've been developing for months. After this, I am sure that I'd be ready to compete!

Unfortunatly, the nearest tournament to me is 500 miles from Phoenix, AZ in Salt Lake City, UT. I had tried to make an agreement with my mom, the parent whom I live with being that I am 15 going on 16. I had asked i I could go to this tournament and was turned down. I have posted my arguments for people to see on Nintendo's website where my post was deleted by moderators, whixh in my oppinion was not fair.

I have begun this petition to hope to persuade my mom into letting me go. But, if and only if I work to get money and pay for the trip there and back, get my driver's license so I can drive there, and let her come with me to the city because I don't want her to worry.

Do what you can to help by signing my petition and supporting me. I think I am being fair on this issue, and see no fault in what I am willing to do. I ask of you to do this. With your help, I can make it!
