    Seeing as it is the start of a new generation, we need more reviewers for the new tiers!

    A Battle Factory reviewer must commit to certain standards. They must be knowledgeable in their tier, be active on the server, actively add/remove/accept sets that have been submitted, and be able to work with their peers.

    Currently we want people that will add sets and review other people's sets.

    Experience in Tier(s) being applied to: Ubers / OU / NU - I have great knowledge in the three tiers, with Ubers being my specialty. I am skilled in the other two as well, having played both for quite some time. I also teach Ubers for the PO Academy currently.
    I should be able to cooperate with just about anyone since I have a friendly personality (saying it myself feels kinda lame but still).
    I have a team rater badge I got recently too.

    References: [IMP]Leon(IDM lol), Sandglass, and all those that vouched me in my Tutor Application, as well as the many regulars in #tournaments that know my Ubers skills ;) Can't give as much for the other tiers, but many oldtime players like Poliwrath Says or Yuxie can justify for my skills.

    Experience in Tier(s) being applied to: OU. In Gen 6, I've played OU on PS due to the mac version of PO not working and the Wine build being rather unstable, but I have incorporated a good amount of knowledge on the tier (About 1710 on the ranking there). However, I am familiar with the metagame here (which is slightly different due to the recent banning of Deoxys-N and Gengarite).

    Experience in Tier(s) being applied to: XY OU - I've been playing this a lot by experimenting with Megas and other things and I've really been enjoying the tier. For the tier, I've been quite involved with Smogon C&C, so though it might not matter on PO, it means I have quite a bit of experience with Pokemon sets and whatnot. Don't get me wrong though, I play on both PS! and PO. I am also a BW2 Ubers Reviewer so I know the process well

    References: I haven't asked anyone for this, but on PO I reckon Fixed can vouch for me being a pretty decent and original player. On PS I have voiced in the ubers room and have a very strong knowledge of what's viable in there [I'm also writing the uber analysis for scizor]; asking someone such as Hack/Melee Mewtwo/Polop etc. will probably certify that I'm a fairly strong ubers player.

    Edit: Oh and idk how good Poliwrath Says is but I beat his best 2 teams yesterday with a team with an umbreon in. And I also beat Thundurus [aka slayer] whilst carrying an altaria [not running this any more but lol I experiment hella lot to find out what does and doesn't work].

    Edit: Yagura says it's fine for me to use him as a reference too.

    Edit: Ok hella lot of edits.. I should probs add puregenius [aka graytail] in as a reference too

    So Xdevo and I briefly spoke on the server and arrived at the consensus to close this thread. Overall we both disliked this process due to the awkward backlog of potential candidates it creates. Mostly this method was leftover from the old Battle Factory days where we had a third party site in which people submitted brief applications through in Battle Factory's initial startup. Overall these applications really don't give us any idea of who would function well as a Battle Factory Reviewer. In place of this thread I will be posting and stickying a thread of what we look for in potential reviewers, akin to "Oak's List of Things You Can Do to Help PO".
