Hi! :)
Fairly new to competitive Pokemon & kinda still figuring all this out. Mostly play RU and UU these days. Tbh I really have no idea what I'm doing most of the time
Will take any excuse to put Gardevoir on my teams.
Why, you ask?
If we are trying to schedule for a tournament:
I cannot schedule battles during the day. This is due to my unreliable internet, which is worsened by the heat during daytime. I live deep in the woods, and honestly I'm lucky to have internet access at all here. At nighttime in the summer, my maximum internet speed is 300 kb/s on a very good day. But during daytime, the most you can ever hope for is 30 kb/s, and it's more likely that it'll just cut out completely at random times. I'm fine scheduling late at night (as late as 2am), but any time before 4pm is completely off limits during the summer, because of this.
(And no, my life circumstances will not magically disappear if you keep asking me to be available during the day. Believe me, I wish that's how it worked too.)
