    If you wish to apply as a tutee simply fill out the following!

    Most prominent server names: Aliases you often use on the server.
    What you want to learn: Tier(s) and specific skills you would like to learn, things like effective team building or general workings of the metagame. Please note that if we don't have a tutor for it, you can't be tutored in it. Check the tutors list linked below to see what you can be tutored in.
    About me: Some information about you and why want to be tutored. Good things to list would be ladder peaks, general skill level, and length of time involved with competitive Pokémon. Don't really need a life story, but some details might help pair you with a more suited tutor
    Time Zone (In GMT): If you don't know, Google it.

    The approved tutors and their tiers/metagames are as follows:

    XY Ubers
    puregenius
    Ramiel
    Edgar
    MasterChaos
    Raducan

    XY OU
    Finchinator
    Metalgross

    XY LC
    Mylo Xyloto
    Obito
    Rioku

    BW2 Ubers
    puregenius
    Ramiel
    [IMP]Leon
    Edgar
    MasterChaos

    BW2 OU
    Finchinator
    MetalGross

    BW2 UU
    Fille
    Raducan
    Finchinator

    BW2 NU
    Finchinator

    BW2 LC
    Mylo Xyloto
    Rioku
    Obito

    DPP Ubers
    Master Chaos

    RBY OU/GSC OU
    Isa

    Important: Please note that applying for a round of tutoring is making a commitment, don't sign up if you're going on vacation or can't maintain activity, the tutors want to tutor people and it's disappointing when people sign up and then don't show up ever. Also note that a tutor isn't there to give you a few good teams, they're there to help you learn and be able to make teams, play well etc for yourself.

    DEADLINE FOR SIGN-UPS IS THE 10th of JANUARY.

    What you want to learn: XY Ubers/Rby OU/XY OU
    About me: I've actually tried playing the ubers tiers before, but it never really worked out for me. I also thought RBY would be a fun gen to learn about, seeing I have decent knowledge in the other gens.

    What you want to learn: XY OU
    About me: I can't OU, seriously. Can't teambuild, can't play, help. I've laddered the tier a couple of times, but I haven't been that successful. I know the basics and how the tier works in general, but I haven't ever dedicated my time to learning OU in depth, but hopefully that will change!

    What you want to learn: GSC OU
    About me: I have partook in a plethora of official and unofficial tournaments on PO and Smogon. Throughout the last couple of years I have had decent success and achievements in the aforementioned tournaments and strive to improve in tiers that I don't have much experience in (such as GSC OU). I have peaked 1701 in BW1 OU and topped the BW OU, BW UU, and JAA ladders. I was the previous tier leader of BW NU and manager of a POCL and POWC team.

    Most prominent server names: Ortheore (Maybe Marttyr, but I don't really use alts anymore)
    What I want to learn: XY OU/Ubers/LC. I'm really not too fussed what tier I learn, I just generally want to get better, mostly at teambuilding.
    About me: Um, I've been experimenting in all of the tiers I listed since they've been released, and have yet to find any semblance of success in any of those tiers (except maybe LC, which is funny, because I'd never played LC prior to this gen, but w/e). Prior to gen 6 I've dabbled in g5 Ubers and NU, while also playing HGSS OU and RBY OU. Main thing is that I'm pretty terrible at teambuilding, I really struggle to put together a usable team. I usually sit at around 1300 on the ladder, just to give an idea of my approximate skill level.

    What you want to learn: XY Ubers
    About me: Well, I am absolute garbage at teambuilding. The only teams I can build are baton pass teams , would like to change that :/ . I had a lot of people giving me teams in Ubers (Ramiel,Lilligant,MUMU,Master Chaos) and I still drop dead after I hit 1400+ . Never get those cool #1 Peaks everyone else gets. :C . That's all about ubers
    Timezone: GMT +7 (although It's GMT +7 ... I am active during the morning(morning as in GMT +7 morning) and not evening or night.. )) I can see that being a problem.........

    What you want to learn: XY Ubers, XY LC (Would like to apply for RBY OU if there are any spots left, not my priority though)
    About me: Tried laddering XY Ubers many times, but I just reach around 1200 and get down to 1150 range. I'm not able to build good teams in this gen so would need some help with that. I know the common threats, sets etc though. I can never understand XY LC and I can't play well with any good team. Need help in LC overall I guess.
    I am doing decently in Ubers atm with high practise, (14:13:26) ±Porygon: Your rank in XY Ubers is 329/22108 [1274 points / 33 battles]!. I am playing atm with the team of a good friend, I still need lots of help in teambuilding.

    About me: I have zero experience with XY OU, but I really want to try out the tier since there is no more perma weather and the introduction of a bunch of new viable pokemon always interests me. BW2 Ubers and BW2 UU are my favorite tiers (since Gen 6 Random Battle sucks now ;-;) and the only ones that I have decent experience with, but I would definitely like to step it up in those tiers. I need a lot of help when it comes to strategy and predicting, while my teambuilding skills are near non-existent. Lastly, I like using uncommon and creative movesets on my pokemon. Best of luck to whoever my tutor is. :)

    What you want to learn: XY OU & XY Uber teambuilding & metagame knowledge
    About me: Been playing competitive pokes for over 2 years, and I have learned a lot along the way. Before I quit a couple of months ago, I mostly played DPP, ADV and BW2 OU. I reached the top 10 on all 3 ladders and I also did well in Smogon tournaments. Now that I have decided to come back, I wanna become more familiar with the XY metagame, because atm I'm awful at it. I would prefer to learn XY OU since thats what pretty much everyone is playing right now, but Ubers is also fine since I love the tier. I'm only available on evenings on weekdays, but on weekends I'm available all the time. Aside from playing pokes, I like listening to music and watching comedy and sci-fi shows.

    About me: I'm just trying to improve it, actually I'm going "well", but I can just make HO teams (I can't peak more than 1230 in ladder, my best peak). I'm backing to Pokemon after a while 'cuz I were terrible in BW2. My problems are basically the team building and good strategies.

    About me: BW2 OU was never my strongest suit, I somewhat understand the meta and how it's played, peaked 1362. Teambuilding is my biggest problem. As for XY Ubers I need an overall understanding of this new meta as BW2 Ubers was my best tier last gen, peaked 1479.

    What you want to learn: XY OU
    About me: I'm a person who has just preferred BW2 over XY, as the Random Battle was better, no mega-evos, as well as the metagame seemed easier to adapt - I particularly loved BW2 UU, been top 5 numerous times, I'm a decent player haha. Anyways, albeit BW2 OU being like 40%-60% weather, I find the new generation harder to understand as along with the mega-evos, a new type has been introduced and numerous buffs/nerfs to take advantage of. Anyways, the point is I need to alter myself into an aspect where I can learn the XY tiers and ladder well in them (best rating in XY OU is 1250, and I've only just started getting into XY LC thanks to Samphire and others ~). I'm also decent friends with Metagross and BFF's with Finch, so hopefully I'm a good tutee to them, plus I see them both on regularly when I am on (particularly Finch). :o
