Hello and welcome to the brand new PU Team Tune-Up! If you are a beginner to teambuilding that happened to stumble across this thread and/or are just having a teambuilding mental block and don't know what to do, this might just be the place for you!
STATUS: Currently still accepting ORAS teams, but otherwise this thread will just wait until SuMo
WHAT THIS IS ABOUT
The goal of this is to improve everyone's and anyone's team.
Perhaps you asked the PU chatroom for help and the advice just didn't work or mesh into something that you really wanted. Perhaps you don't want to make a giant RMT post or don't have the time/energy for one. Perhaps you need a fresh set of eyes to examine your team. If this sounds like you, try posting your team here instead for a quick and more concrete way of fixing up the team. It's a great and easy way for you (who may or may not know how to build around a certain Pokemon) to play with something you enjoy using, but, at the same time, to play with something that is viable. In essence, this thread is the middle ground between an RMT and getting advice in the chatroom.
Important: If you are in the chatroom, and you see that someone asks for help on a team but doesn't get the sufficient help that they need, consider directing them here! That way, they feel included and can clearly post their thoughts as well as get a concrete response in return.
HOW TO SUBMIT
An example submission, do it like this:

- Note that this is NOT the Teambuilding Shop or Squad Dump. The Teambuilding Shop is where you request a Pokemon/core to be built around and the builders build it for you. The Squad Dump is where you dump teams that you don't need to be edited.The PU Team Tune-Up, conversely, is where you submit your own team (complete OR incomplete) and the builders will modify, add or replace Pokemon, and fine tune it for you.
- Expect teams to be tuned up within a day or two.
- To let you know we have seen your request, we will "like" your post.
- After the team is fixed up, it will be submitted back to you, and the person/people who worked on your team will explain their edits and changes so you understand how the team works in its new form.
- It will be kept in the archives.

HOW TO SUBMIT
An example submission, do it like this:

I found this team to work OK, but I've been having a lot of problems with water types. I can't really seem to deal with Floatzel very well. I tried using Scarf Ampharos to be a fast electric type that can tank some hits to deal with it. I also tried AV Simisage so I don't die to ice beam everytime. Bouffalant is really powerful with its Choice Band set, so I want to keep that. But yeah, Golem and Floatzel seem to be really hard pokemon for me to deal with, so could you fix up the team to better deal with them? Try to keep it a Bulky Offense archetype, if possible.

- Simply paste a "pastebin" of the team from Showdown's importable, or paste the importable into a spoiler box/hide box.
- Describe in a paragraph the problems you are facing during play testing and state any other comments about the team itself.

- Do not expect the team to be tuned-up if it is a "meme"; this is not the thread for that, so don't post it here.
- Each user is allowed one submission per day and any user found requesting multiple will have their post(s) deleted.
- Please at least play test your teams before submitting. We don't want to fix up a team that is haphazardly thrown together with no thought put into the team.
- Please don't fix teams if you are not a part of the thread council. If you think you'd be a good member of the council to fix teams (to contribute to the greater good) please send me a PM on Discord.
- Provide replays, if applicable.
- Be nice (duh)
