Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
Totally did not know you had come back to ASB. Nice to have you back, for whichever far-flung region of the past that was. But I'll PM the gym committee and see what they say.
Hey, made an announcement on the thread for the tournament. I apologize, I was on a date for most of the day yesterday and had asked IAR to sub out those who did not post. He was unaware of the situation. If you would still like to play, I'll be happy to give you a new set of Pokemon and items.
