Read the tutor guidelines before submitting an application. To submit an application, use the following format: Server names: Aliases you often use on the server. Tiers you wish to teach: Tiers you feel comfortable teaching. About me: A some information about you and why you think you are a good choice as a tutor, and why you want to be one. Good things to list would be ladder peaks, tournament victories (preferable forum tournaments), and other accomplishments. However, feel free to list other "real life" things that might make you more suitable for the position. References: A minimum of three members in good standing within the community who can vouch for both your attitude and battling prowess. Timezone: In GMT. If your application is accepted, I'll edit it saying so. If it's rejected, I will do the same. It is recommended that you apply as soon as possible if you are thinking about being a tutor. This allows tutees to see what tiers are available when tutee applications go up in 1 week. Deadline is August 25th
Server names: E.T. Tiers you wish to teach: ORAS LC, RBY OU, Inverted Battle About me: I've been playing LC and RBY since at least early to mid 2012 (BW2 LC at the time), and I have peaked on the LC and RBY ladders multiple times; however, those ladders have seen their share of inactivity. I was the tutor for Inverted Battle last round as well as the Inverted gym leader for the PO League last season. I believe that I definitely have enough experience in these tiers to properly introduce them to players who have never played them or haven't played very much. I also have IRL tutoring experience. References: Draciel, Sulcata, Carlmurray Timezone: GMT -5 Approved
Spoiler: same app as in last round Server names: Disaster Area + a few misc. ones that I use very rarely. Tiers you wish to teach: RBY OU About me: Got a pretty free-looking summer ahead, should be able to spend some time teaching mons hopefully. Started playing RBY OU during last year's POWC to help teammates test, and picked up the meta and got invovled with the community on the PO server, rby2k10, and pokemon perfect. Solid if unexceptional ~3-3 record in POWC this year (group A was the harder bracket too imo). Have peaked #2 on ladder behind marco, currently sitting at #7 (decay's probably a bit of a factor), although laddering is not a huge focal point of my time (nor has it been since really the introduction of gen 6). Oh I also beat the RBY gym 2-0 (facing vs During Summer) References: Lutra, Golden Gyarados, Marcoasd Timezone: GMT+1? Wherever UK's at atm. I don't know if you need to re-apply every round or if you just post in the thread that you are going to continute tutoring in this round. Approved
Server names: Elize Lutus Tiers you wish to teach: Monotype About me: Mono player since long time, also the actual tutor and gym leader. I think I can help out once again if needed References: Sulcata, Raducan, nearly everyone I think :) Timezone: GMT +2/+3 Approved
Server Name: TraceofLife Tiers you wish to teach: ORAS OU, Hackmons, i can do Ubers and NU if there's no tutor smh about me: was approved as a tutor last round so I guess I don't suck References: wat Timezone: +7 Approved
Server names: gengar17 Tiers you wish to teach: monotype,oras lu About me: ive been playing mono for as long as ive been in PO, peaked the ladder a long time ago, won a few hundred server tours (890 seeds atm), as well as the cute little medal below my name which i got by winning the last forum tour. If i ever tried helping anyone with anything, it was mono because i always tried to increase the mono playerbase since it's mostly what's keeping me here as well as it being my favorite. As for lu it's my best/fav main tier and I have quite a bit of knowledge and experience in it References: i'm definitely better than @Carlmurray . but i guess/hope most current mono players can vouch for me (maybe sulcata rad celebi carl if i had to name a few although cant confirm n_n ) for lu I guess cp and aurist. Timezone: +3 Approved
Spoiler Server names: Spoiler SheerForceGatr / Bulbapedia / Taylor Swift Tiers you wish to teach: ORAS Ubers/OU/NU/Monotype About me: Well, I like to fill myself with knowledge, so knowledge on common cores, speed tier, threats, and overall diversity of viability of metagames is my specialty. These 4 are the ones I happen to know most of. For this current gen. I could teach XY UU/NU and BW2 UU/NU if people really wanted to learn them as those were tiers I also learned quite well. I finished well in both forum Monotype tours, I'm a Side Metas TL, played UU in UUPL and went even, helped with the viability rankings in Ubers, currently in finals of the forum NU tour. Nothing relevant for OU cause in the middle of POCL atm. References: Carlmurry, gengar17, most of Tours, probs DracoNinja, if you're really stressing this I can go find out more :\ C/P'd You should totally pick me over the scrubs @Carlmurray and @gengar17 for Monotype. Approved
Server names: La.Melle2402 Tiers you wish to teach: ORAS Ubers, 3v3 Singles, Oras NU About me: These two are my favourite tiers. Im the current the topseed in both, was the topseed in nu, climbed the ubers ladder, the 3v3 ladder and the random battle ladder too before 3v3 singles existed. And I was already tutor in round 14 for ubers - but got 2 inactive tuttees :( References: Every members of La.Resistance, Carlmurrray and many people in the tour server ups forgot my timezone. its +2 Approved
Server names: Fiery Espeon Tiers you wish to teach: Balanced Hackmons/Hackmons, Monotype About me: I think I'd be able to teach players about the plethora of strategies + teambuilding of the tiers listed above. I have made various peaks within the 10-20's range of the tiers listed, and #2 in BH ( i also got the gym badge from TOL). I was third place in the Top down knock down forum mono tour. I have won a lot of scripted tours for these also. I am an actual tutor in real life, so I guess that makes me qualified to be able to teach. References: Duncajuwon, Elize Lutus, gengar17, La.Hellhound Timezone: GMT -4/-5 Approved
Sigh, this is dying already :[ snaga ------------- Oras UU/LU/NU ------------- I was a tutor last round and I enjoyed helping new PO members develop in the way they play and teambuild ------------- @Finchinator @Draciel @ASH_CHAMPION @Isa ------------- GMT -4 Approved

Server names: karkinos64, Mavis Vermillion Tier: ORAS Ubers, ORAS LC About me: The two tiers I really know my way around (playstyles, threats, common problems) and feel like I could teach new players about. Never really tutored before but showed some people who asked me around ubers and some friends around LC~ dunno if you still need anyone. References: The Tournaments channel regulars, I guess Carl Murray, gengar17, Casparov and Icey (jiten) might vouch for me concerning these tiers Timezone: GMT +2 Approved
Server names: MetalGross Tiers you wish to teach: ORAS OU (rby?) About me: I've been a tutor before and wish to be one again. References: Finchinator, Draciel, Trace Of Life Timezone: GMT +2 Approved
Server names: Finchinator and Finch Tiers you wish to teach: ORAS OU, BW2 OU, and BW2 UU About me: Tutored on PO for a long time (this has to be my 8th or 9th round) before and taught people like NananaBatman and Noname4505 whose success I will take credit for despite not being responsible for, peaked OU, UU, and NU ladders in the past, won various forum tournaments including POCL and OGT, badged user on PO and Smogon, positive official tournament record on PO and Smogon, lead OU on here and led NU back during BW2, previously rated teams, led QC, and partook in various other communal projects, and feel the need to tryhard in my 'about me' section to look good on a silly pokemon forum! References: Radookan, the guy who misspelt zoroark in his username, the guy who misspelt metagross in his username, MEEPS, etc... Timezone: GMT-4 Only will be able to handle 1 or 2 tutees this round and I think this will be my last round tutoring, unfortunately, but might as well go out with a boom!_! So LGI Also fuck this system, I know I'm Approved
