    Approved tutor last 2 rounds.

    Tiers you wish to teach: Wifi OU, Wifi Ubers
    About me: I'm a Megauser on PO Server. As part of the Spartak Stunfisks, I went 4-3 in Wifi OU during POCL. I've peaked both OU and Ubers ladder once, and I'm comfortable with every play style. Recently, I battled my way to round 6 in ST9, where I lost to Thatsjustpeachy in a 50/50 in battle three. I like to help people and have done so many times unofficially on the server. I'm relatively active and very sociable. Last round, was my first round as a tutor, and I enjoyed it very much. I'd rather not have 3 tutees this time, since it was a little too much. 2 is perfect. Finally, I'm the starting OU player for US Central in this POWC as well, going 8-1 in OU and Ubers. I was also a starting member of Team Benelux in the latest Smogon WCoP.

    About me: Wifi OU -I am the Wifi OU Gym Leader, current lead of Wifi OU QC, and an active member of Forums that contributes to most, if not all, OU threads. I went 3-2 in POCL, as a member of the Milan Bisharps (<3 choking.) Currently, I have a few aliases with decent ladder rankings but, when I took the ladder seriously, I topped at a ranking of 1701. I have teached some other users, as well as helped some with teams, that now prosper in the Wifi OU tier. Wifi UU - Peaked #1, made various teams that have done well, started UU on team East for POWC (Went 8-3 and saved our ass from being out in the playoffs), Won UU badge twice, beaten honorable players like MeowMix and know the tier very well.

    Tiers I wish to teach: Wifi NU, Meeps sucks so he can't do that.
    About me/Accomplishments: In my first tour, I was a POCL All-Star and finished 5-2, and in POWC I finished 9-5, with my only legit losses being against FLCL. I'm currently the NU Gym/Tier Leader and I know a large amount about the NU Tier. I also helped Finchinator lead Team East to the playoffs after our Captain Treecko died, and I did fairly well from the team's response about it.

    Tiers you wish to teach: Wifi Ubers
    About me: I have been at Pokémon competitively since the release of Black/White 2. Much of my time invested into Wifi Ubers came from as a result of participating in Pokémon Online World Cup as the dominant player of the tier for Team Canada.

    I enjoy teambuilding on a regular basis. Many of my teams have done well on the ladder and against highly acclaimed players of the tier. Team styles include, but not limited to various frameworks of rain, sun, sand, weatherless, as well as others.

    Tiers I wish to teach: Wifi Ubers
    About me: I've been playing Wifi Ubers since the start of Gen 5 and I consider myself fairly knowledgeable about the tier. Some of my accomplishments in the tier include making the POCL-All Star Team Twice, Going 6-3 in Smogon SPL 4[Best Ubers Record], and I also had a solid performance when I played Wifi Ubers for USA East. Last time I signed up for this I was fairly busy / had stuff going on IRL, but I have more free time atm so I'll be good to go if selected.

    Tiers you wish to teach: Wifi Ubers

    About me: Used to do private tutoring on PO and Smogon, although I hardly EVER ladder anymore I've gotten 1500+ in both Wifi Ubers and DW Ubers. I'm pretty patient with tutees. I'm not going to teach 6 standard rain stall; if you want that, go to Donkey. I generally use different, "gimmicky" sets that are fun to play with.

    About me: I don't think ladder ranking means much but I reached page 1 in Challenge Cup, page 1 in OU, top 5 in NU and UU. I won the OU Subforum Tournament and I played NU in POWC for Team Italy. For that occasion I built few teams my teammates have been very successful with.

    Tiers you wish to teach: Wifi NU
    About me: I have been playing for about a year and a half. I am currently one of three NU Tier leaders, on the NU QC team, and do BF review for NU. My dedication to the tier allows me to be very knowledgeable as its basically the only one I play competively and I have multiple high ladder peaks. In real life, I am an education minor and I also teach tennis in the summer to kids ranging from beginner to advanced which would help me for tutoring on here.
