Your timezone: GMT -4 (EDT)
Usual Hours of Availability: 4pm to Midnight is preferred Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I'm an ADV main. My first tournament experience was in ADV Revival 2 and in the time since I've reached 1600+ twice and had a pretty average tournament showing. In the recent ADV Global Championship I got the chance to face against (and lose to) Cyberodin and OOZ!?, two invite-level players, which has really inspired me to try and reach for the next level of play. I'm hoping to learn more teamstyles, practice better tournament prep, and improve my consistency to have greater confidence going into all my future matches.

Username: Giokio PS! Username: Giokio Signup Format: SV DOU
Your timezone: (GMT+1)
Usual Hours of Availability: Evenings and not too late at night, weekends all day excluding exam period Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I've been a VGC player for almost a decade, playing since the end of vgc 15 when i was a kid. I've never gone to an official event due to my living situation, tho I took part in my share of tournaments on smogon. I'm not very motivated to compete alone, but i love team tours and especially draft formats. While grinding vgc i've always used the DOU ladder as a fun alternative when the official format sucked, which lately has been almost always imo. The reason i want to learn more about DOU is that some of my friends play it and i'd like to compete with them in team tours.
While i tend to not try very hard in battles, i'm a building maniac, my favorite playstyle is using bulky pivots to continuously keep the momentum on my side. Are you able to use Discord?: yes

Most of my time spent playing mons was during BW where I played most formats available on PO at the time on ladder. Since then I've played SM Battle Factory when that was current as well as more recently in the last year a smattering of SV formats on ladder. I'd like to learn how to properly play and build for a modern format instead of just laddering with samples or passed teams. I had fun laddering in AAA previously and a lot of my friends play so I feel it would make for a fun choice, but with all of the options feels difficult to get into at that level myself.

Username: Incognition Signup Format: BW OU Your timezone: GMT+1 Usual Hours of Availability: Weeknights and Sundays Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I've been active in the competitive scene for a small while now. Since starting in BW, I was part of the winning team for BW Trios, almost made the last 16 in the BW Winter Seasonals, and peaked top 4 on BW ladder at almost 1,600 points.
I want to develop further by being able to build my own teams confidently, being able to assess midgame positions and identify when and how to utilise my win conditions.
I'm hoping to get enough skills and confidence to be a starter for BWPL and have a good run in BW Cup. Are you able to use Discord?: Yes
