welcome to BALD
Please let me know if you need anything

It's no trouble at all, don't worry! I love helping out. Feel free to ask me any questions and I'll do my best. :)

Alright. Yeah importables are usually created with a simulator so I'll help you with that later. Well... just ask Bald Accountant if you can post a thread for your team in B.A.L.D. or something so everybody can help. And yeah, it's definitely advised for you to playtest your team before creating an RMT. Untested teams are usually poor (due to them based solely on Theorymon) and so you definitely want some experience with it first.
*oh! lastly, it's easier for me to talk to you (if you want that) if you click View Conversation before VMing this way I know when you want to talk*

Yeah I was looking at the RMT section and it seems theycprefer if you've played through with your team first and I was more hoping for advice on if I chose the right team before I put the work into it (since I can't use a simulator at the moment)

Ah, yeah I don't know how I'd make an importable

If you need help with the team, I'd be happy to. But keep in mind that I'm more of an Ubers player, so you may want to ask multiple people (I suggest posting in a social group before an RMT so we can smooth out formatting and descriptions). But if you PM me the team (preferably an importable, but if you can't make one, I'd be happy to help you do so), I can give you some pointers.

Alright ao I was looking through and put together a rough draft team. Would you mind looking it over for me? (Still a bit hesitant to post anywhere, aha)

hehehe yeah it's quite a bit but don't get discouraged; once you get in the hang of things, it's really not that bad. battling's really fun too!

I'm assuming you're starting with the OU tier then?
OK, so... *hopes this won't be too overwhelming*

Basically what is good in the metagame right now. S-Rank and A-Rank are pretty strong, but the lower you go, the less viable you get.

RMT: http://www.smogon.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=119
This is the Rate My Team section. You can look through the threads to see what other people are using. Find a good one, and note down the formatting and descriptions so if you make one, you can follow suit.

Smogon's Mentorship Program: http://www.smogon.com/mentorship/
Not entirely sure just how this works, but a few friends of mine are mentors and I'm sure they can help.

It's a lot of stuff huh? Do you need some pointers? I'd be happy to help.
Also, make sure you lurk a little bit before you post, just in case; it's better if you get the hang of things and how Smogon roles before you starting posting in the Forums.

hiya!
