Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): This enthusiast of pink salamanders has poked around in SS OU for a few years at this point and now wants to branch out into other tiers, especially GSC OU since it has been described as a tier with a fair amount of similarities with my home tier.

Torchic has accepted me as his apprentice on QQ (I can provide screenshots if need be), so I would like to be assigned to him if possible.

Are you able to you use Discord: Yes, but QQ would probably be more convenient for my tutor.

Formato de inscrição: SV LC
Seu fuso horário: -3
Horário de disponibilidade habitual: I'm free at any time of the day or night.
Conte-nos um pouco sobre sua experiência em Pokémon competitivo (mínimo de 3 frases): I started out playing SWSH Overused and SWSH National Dex, which is where most of my experience comes from. This year, I began playing Little Cup in SV, ORAS, and SM. I have a decent understanding of the game, but I’m still not where I want to be. I’m looking to refine my game sense and improve my overall decision-making in Little Cup, especially when it comes to precise predictions, doubles, and more aggressive sequencing.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): Peaked high 1700s ladder but never hit 1800, mainly play in revtours where my highest placement is ro8 in some of the smaller ones. My tournament play I feel is very inconsistent overall and I struggle with game plans when playing as or against certain archetypes. I would like to improve on my theory, teambuilding and endgame.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): laddering a good bit, i want to fluently be able to build more and also practice to learn cg on a deeper level for individuals mainly. i think b101 would be great to sharpen any gray areas ! Overall really excited and have been building stuff a good bit and got the ladder badge a few times in past days (today) but looking moreso on really learning everything.. so im losing games accepting defeat but need to expedite the process. I need to be fluent like Storm Zone! C0LD MF Snow.

Welcome to Battling 101! If you're seeking a tutor for SV Monotype, you are in the right place. Please read all the rules carefully and fill out every part of the application.

RULES​

• You must be able to access Discord, or whatever your tutor wants as the primary form of communication.
• You must be willing to use Pokemon Showdown! even if you are being tutored in a cartridge format such as Battle Spot or VGC.
• You, the tutee, should have at least 15 posts before signing up AND your account's age should be a minimum of at least 1 month old before signing up.
  • This is not a strict requirement meaning you may still be paired without satisfying it, so no matter what, DO NOT spam post elsewhere in the forum. That is an infractable offense and we do not encourage such behavior from potential Tutees.
• You must have battled competitively for a decent amount in at least ONE of the Smogon tiers or Battle Spot / VGC to sign up. Playing 10 or so matches on the PS! ladder is not substantial enough, ~70 or so is more reasonable. This experience does not need to be for the format you sign-up for; this is just to weed out people who have never played competitively that can improve themselves simply by using resources already available to them without needing a tutor to hold their hand.
• You, the tutee, are responsible for setting up times with your tutor. When you receive the Smogon notification informing you of the pairing, please take the initiative and post on their VM wall first. Continued scheduling and communication is key to a successful pairing!
• Use the Tutee Talk forum to complain about your tutor (or praise them if they're doing a good job). These are no longer mandatory, but if your tutor is ridiculously inactive or is a complete jackass, COMPLAIN HERE. Nobody can see your tutee talk posts except for you and the Battling 101 Staff; everything is confidential.
• Signups older than 4 months or 1 month since last login will be considered inactive. These will be moved to the Inactive Posts thread, and can be returned back to this thread by request.
• Tutors can and will drop you if sessions go badly, and significant violations may result in a ban from B101. Be active, be enthusiastic, be respectful. Make the best of your time together!

Here is the signup template, and an example sign-up post.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): Been around since 2016, tried to get tutored during SM but scheduling was inconsistent and I wasn't that great of a player.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I'm a low tier player that recently won 2 circuits and played SCL.

Thanks.
