Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I have played mostly random battles at a tournament level, making top cut of last year's circuit and going positive in last year's RBTT. I would like to get more into tiers as recently I have been finding myself picked for team tours which i then proceed to do badly in lol. i have never dedicated too much time to learning tiers so i would appreciate the guidance in order to reach the higher levels of play i'm aiming for

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): Been playing for a good while now in a variety of tiers, from Draft to SV OU/NU to ADV OU/RU, from 35 Pokes to Mariomon, etc... Usually play for Portugal in various Wcops where I generally get a positive score. Feel like I'm not at the level yet where I can compete with the top end of players in ADV consistently and would like to learn what I'm missing.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences):pretty experienced with tiers like ss ou and sv ou I’m a tutor for natdex ou played several tournaments decent showing. However as of late ORAS OU has been very interesting to me especially after playing a couple sets of it in Smogon masters. I would love to learn about it more in depth.
Are you able to use Discord?: yep voice chat is preferred though I feel it helps me learn easier.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences):
I've been playing for 1 year and have played in tours such as the Smogon Classics, in which I finished with 12 points. I've also played in SMLT and have peaked at 1712 elo, which sadly just barely doesn't qualify me for playoffs. I feel like I'm inconsistent when it comes to battling. In some games, I play extremely well, and in others I play extremely badly. My goal is to consistently perform well in tournaments such as the Smogon Classics in which I want to make playoffs as well as SM and ORAS tours, which I thoroughly enjoy playing as well.
I'm also active on showdown and am willing to put in the time and effort with my potential tutor.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): Pretty okay at ADV, I've played for somewhere around 2 or 3 years straight and I've made enough progress to make reasonable runs in ADV Tours, both on smogon and offsite. I've played a bit of GSC ladder but nothing in tour worth noting.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I'm relatively new to Pokémon. I've been playing since the middle of last year, but I already know the basic mechanics. I mainly play SV Doubles OU and SV Monotype on tours like EPL and osdt but I'd like to learn how to play ADV OU because I want to learn more about metagame, common core and teambuildin from adv ou

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I was a casual observer of the competitive singles scene for a few months last year, before I began playing seriously on Smogon in various formats and tiers (Ubers is my most played and best understood format, followed by Gen 4 OU). I applied for a Gen 4 Smogon tournament several months ago and was lined up to face them, but several issues (including my misunderstanding of GMT and using SmogTours instead of main) stopped us and they took an activity win. I was demoralized and I no longer felt the interest to play in tours.
However, after a break, my interest has been revitalized, and I've been slowly trying to climb the Gen 4 ladder while trying to learn the format more intimately. I'm also interested in the ADV format and RBY, who have not just interesting metagames but passionate communities.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I started pokemon in Gen 8 OU. Got to around 1800 ELO at peak. I then started becoming a casual towards SV, but then became a community member at Ubers UU and the UM scene(ended up getting my first tournament win there as well as CAva from there).

However, my involvement in the higher powerlevel tiers resulted in me becoming somewhat ass in the OU scene as I failed to keep up with the metagame and started expecting too much breaking from my breakers/sweepers in the regular powered tiers(this is a result of focusing on high powerlevel tiers like UUbers and AG lol).This is kind of why I want to focus on an old gen. Primarily because it is less evolving at the moment. I would like to focus on XY and BW because XY was the first tour with mega evolutions, and it feels like an interesting tier to try out. BW also appears interesting bc of the perma weather situation.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): Recently got back into competitive mons after initially playing Gen 4 back in the Shoddy/Pokemon Online days. Have had wildly inconsistent results in ADV tours: had decent runs in Rev 2 (5-3 with 2 act wins), and Old Money Open 2 (Revcord tour, 6-2 with 2 act wins), while losing quickly in other tours, most recently Rev3. Recently hit my ladder peak in the 1600s, looking to get better at teambuilding and making more consistent plays.
