Accomplishments some of the recent tours I played:

Dou Wcup, we got 4th
OM Wcup (I played PiC), we got 1st
DPL, I think also something like 4th or so
OMPL (I played 2v2), we got 2nd (together with my friend Despacito I got the best 2v2 record, I went 5-1)
UMPL (I managed and tought our 2v2 player how to play 2v2), we got 2nd
Duu Invitationals, got 7th or 5th I believe
DOU Kick-off tour, got 8-5th
2v2 Ladder tour, got 1st
2v2 Ghosting tour, got 1st
I also did quite well in OSDT
Some Duu tour I got far in, I believe 3rd or something
Pic Kickoff, 1st
Doubles Derby, 2nd

These are all recent tours but as you noticed none are VGC but all are doubles, I used to play VGC back in gen 8 but ill tell more about all of this in the next part

Bio Hey, im Hugo, a doubles player. As I already said/showed in the previous part of the sign up I haven't played VGC in a while, last time I played was I gen 8 and I never did tournaments but I did play quite a lot of ladder and got most of the time around 1850s. I would say I am a good clicker and a creative builder for doubles and I am pretty decent at adapting to new meta's (for example I was asked to play Pic on OMWcup without ever playing it before but I was able to do very well in the Wcup and in the Kick off tour which I won). Something to note about my solo tours preformance is that I tend to not really try since I just wanna have fun and I end up bringing stuff like malamar and barraskewda cause I think its fun but in team tours I do give it my all and then I actually prep and try. I recognise im not really an intressting pick for a VGC tour but I do know how to play doubles, from 2v2 to Dou but more importantly I also know how to support from my times as manager or team player where I always put in a lot of effort to help out my team mates as much as possible from stuff like scouts, building, testing or whatever really. TLDR; I haven't played VGC in a while but if you want a 3K player who knows how to play doubles and is willing to do a lot of support, im your guy. Sorry for that whole fucking essay and thanks for reading it, have a nice day :)

Bio i'll play for anyone; that being said, i would do best playing with managers / teammates that are good at bringing people together and are willing to coach me up a bit. my accomplishment list may be gaudy and i still have the intangibles that helped me achieve those accomplishments, but i took five years off and need to work on certain parts of my game that lost their polish in order to be a reliable starter in NPA. will have a good amount of free time & have the drive to play and really want to be part of a team
