Tier want to learn: BW OU

Why I have under 25 Posts
I have under 25 posts because: I'm am relatively insanely new to this all. I learned about Smogon from a friend who used Smogon's RNG guide. He led me to the site to learn how to get the pokemon I liked as powerful as they could be without cheating. I have yet to learn how to do this properly, but along the way I learned other things from Smogon. Recently, after hunting around the site and finding some really good guides on pokemon such as leads and such, I was able to create an " O-kay" team. But I know the team has plenty of flaws. Although I have read more than half of the OU tier's pokemon's descriptions, I still have yet to learn how to properly use any of them. I am willing to actually spend time and better my skills, and now that the summer time is here, would love to become acquainted with those that already have the skills. I havent posted anything on Smogon because I felt my posts would be 100% wastefull. I don't know the metagame well, know what synergy is but don't know how to properly implement it, only know how to use a couple leads, don't know much about anti-leads or anything of the sort. Forgive me for this being so long, but I wanted to give a proper explanation as to why I havent posted. In all honesty, I would not like to say I "should" be tutored. I would love for the oppurtunity to learn and truly desire it, but if there's someone out there who needs it more, I would be okay with that. I would also really love to become a contributor to the smogon site. I don't want to just take away from it all and not come back, I would like to be able to learn more, learn other tiers, help other people, RNG PROPERLY and so on. I've only posted in the forum based upon the Nuzlocke Challenge, because i'm participating in that.

Tell us a little about yourself:
16 year old going into senior year next year. I've literally been playing pokemon since before I was born (Mom played it as well :D) and love the game. However pokemon is not my entire "life". I love to get together with friends and do all sorts of fun things, chat via IM or txt or sometimes phone call, ride my bike participate in sports and events and pretty much try and be as social as I can without being overbearing. I like to listen to what others have to say and put other's troubles above my own (which is a problem, yes I know). As I mentioned before, I would love to get to know the Smogon community more, hopefully I won't just be learning from you all.
