Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I've been playing mons since 2012, but only discovered the forums and started contributing in 2017. While I mainly play Monotype and have participated recently in MPL, I've also played Ubers, Doubles, and NU, and enjoy playing them in my spare time. Over the past 6 months or so, I've participated in a couple of NU suspect tests including the Sneasel and Venusaur suspect, so I at least have an idea of what NU is about. However, I'm not the most familiar with playing the tier as of late with the new drops, and figured that this would be a good time to learn more about the meta and its community.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I've been an LC main since 2014, I've never done anything major with tours or anything but I can play it competently. I used to play BW OU way back but I was probably 11/12 years old and didn't understand it very well, besides that I don't really have much experience with playing level 100 tiers. After a couple attempts at trying to self learn in RU/UU etc only to not like how they play and such, I've realized I'd really like to learn NU because it seems very cute- except I'd like actual guidance this time.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I played a lot of ORAS NU, LC and OU but took a year and a half break at around early SUMO. Now I'm looking to get back into competitive mons at a high level and want to become familiar with the tier once more. I've been finding it hard to get used to the new metas and the mons they possess and so I believe participating within the Battling 101 programme will help me get to know the game on a whole new level, thus developing me as a competitive player and for the first time not just lurking unregistered in the Forums but getting to know the community properly.
Are you able to use either Discord or Skype?: Both, preferably Discord but I have a Skype account I can access.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I’ve always like nu, as I am a low tier player. In all my nu tournies however I seem to fall short, but I have had some big wins, and every held my own against some amazing opponents. I just want something that will push me over the edge to become a good nu player.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I started playing Comp right at the end of BW2, dropped it until the very end of ORAS, and have played since SM till this point. I have been pretty good in the tiers I know, being Ubers, OU, and UU. I'm also somewhat familiar in DPP UU. The reason I'm here is because I want to add more to my plate of experience. I'm trying to jump start a touring career, as well as wanting to know every tier because I can. I feel NU would be the next step, as I'm kinda teaching myself RU, and NU seems like a really fun and cool tier n.n

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): Ive been wanting to get into tournaments for a couple of years but never really knew the best place to start. I have only really played on the ladder in the past, usually around 1700 ish was where I peaked, but my biggest issue has always been team building.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive mons(min 3 sentences): I started playing competitively in the middle of ORAS, before that I was just a casual fan. My main tier was OU in these past gens, but I am wanting to expand into lower tiers and improve my gameplay overall. I typically get to mid ladder regardless of the tier, and I tend to misplay late game when I could have easily won, as well as General misplays that I only notice after the game.

Would like to learn an overall interesting tier if possible.

Tell us a little about your experience in competitive mons(min 3 sentences): I played a bit of OU in late gen 4 and gen 5 but weather wars were boring. I currently just play randbats since the gen is almost over but I sit around all day at work watching content so I am pretty up to date with terminology and all that. Would love to take a metagame seriously so I can actually practice relevant techniques for gen 8!
