Server names: Kody, mirin gains, mirin gians Tiers you wish to teach: XY UU, XY NU, XY OU, BW NU, BW OU About me: Hey there I'm Kody and I think that I would make a suitable tutor in the tiers that I mentioned above for a few reasons. If we're going off of ladder peaks I have been number 1 in BW NU, BW OU, BW UU, XY NU, XY UU and for a short time BW Ubers. I started playing Pokemon competitively about 3 years ago and I remember the feeling of not knowing why I was losing or what made everyone else so good. I would like to be a tutor so that new players to a tier who are feeling similarly to how I was can have somebody to guide them and make the transition into competitive Pokemon or just into a new tier much smoother. I'm also playing UU for POCL if that's anything interesting too. If I had a choice of tiers to tutor though I would pick XY UU or XY NU.
