Some one can write about the middle cup. What it is, common teams, biggest threats, etc. diamondfan1910 wrote a very good warstory about MC and got many people interested in it. I would write it but i have no knowledge on the subject.
I want to write about awesome in-game pokemon for Black and White, covering maybe 10 or so particular jewels of in-game epic. I have sent in an approval request to Jimbo.
I also want to look for some experienced co-writers who have written for The Smog before and are interested, because this type of article is the type we can easily have multiple people jump onboard. Of course if no one is interested I would be happy to write myself.
edit: Just got Jimbo's approval so I will be doing this. Please PM me if you want to co-write about certain pokemon. Right now, I am planning on writing about Shimama, Hiappu/Boappu/Yannapu, Dokkora and Kurimugan. I have been particularly impressed with the above pokemon in game (from my own use). Co-author applicants, please have ideas for 2-3 you would like to cover. I would also be thrilled if someone would like to write about the starters. I picked Tsutaja, who I have been continuously disappointed with, but starters are so influential in-game they should really all be included.
As mentioned, I can handle it alone if no one wants to write, but would love to have co-authors on board if people want to write.
edit 2: Also talking to Jump about a potential Pokemon and Basic Japanese article. I think readers would be interested in learning at least the basic Japanese alphabet and some useful basic terminology.
LOL they can't see that <_<I am looking for co-authors for an article about good ingame B&W pokemon. Details here: http://www.smogon.com/forums/showpost.php?p=3013339&postcount=44
Ideally, I would like people who have written for The Smog before. Regardless in-game experiene with B&W is something of a must-- I realize the difficulties here since access to the game in general is limited. Interested writers, please PM me with 2-3 pokemon you want to write about (and reasoning). If you have not written for The Smog before, please show me a writing sample. Thanks
Thats pretty much what I was thinking for LC. It's even more neglected than UU (UU is actually quite popular, being one of three Tiers in the smogon tour)As an idea without a volounteer writer, for a change, could we have an introductory article about getting into UU? It's something I'd like to do, but it seems like another world to us OU players. Maybe someone who often battles UU could give use some tips, as well as a breif overview of the main differences. I'd also say something for Ubers would be good, because I notice that the most frequent 'last post' in the Uber Sub-forum is the "Why don't people play Ubers" thread, so I assume there would be people willing to write one.
