Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I started playing pokemon in 2014 with the boom of ORAS and megas, since then I have been playing more and more, there were intervals in which I left pokemon abandoned but between this year and last I got more into the competitive, my goal is take the theoretical and practical concepts of most tiers to have an overview of all the tiers and be able to have more opportunities in tournaments such as STOUR or Smogon Classics. Besides knowing from SS that it is the tier of the moment, it will help me a lot for tournaments by countries such as WCOP, POWC, etc.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I have been playing competitive pokemon for around 4 years, mainly Gen 7 random battles before switching to Ubers and OU. I used Pokemon Showdown extensively in the past, but I am quite rusty after an over 1 year break. I am eager to learn the new OU tier and hone my battling and teambuilding skills. I can currently win some SS OU battles, but most are too close for comfort and I lose against more experienced opponents.
