Welcome! This is an unofficial service (in relation to the Battling 101 section) provided by some of the ND Ubers community to ease accessibility to the metagame. For now, as this is still in development, this thread will focus itself as a resource for aspiring tutors to sign-up, as they're currently being collected to then provide this service for the community. Tutors that perform particularly well may be awarded the
Requirements to qualify as a tutor for this tier
- Interest and familiarity on the tier as to help players who have hit a plateau in terms of battling and teambuilding and can't seem to improve by themselves, as well as players who understand advanced battling strategies and predictions and want a quick crash-course in this metagame. This is commonly achieved by chatting in real time over a teambuilding process, as well as how they may perform certain plays against another player, be it the tutee against the ladder, or the tutor and the tutee facing off each other. General talks to try to translate the prior metagame knowledge the tutee may have can also be productive.
- At least 3 hours of availability used for the tutee within a timeframe of 2 weeks per round for tutoring purposes. More time than this can be spent if needed or desired, but that's the minimal. This may get revised as this process develops.

If you aren't sure how to showcase your knowledge of the metagame, this can be done via team rating examples (be it in the RMT subforum, the ND Ubers Discord server, or the main Smogon server on pertinent teams of the tier), as well as tour matches, articles written, tier leaders/council members who would vouch for you, etc. It is especially helpful if examples of these things are given.
With all of all said, I wish you all luck!
