Tell us a little about yourself: I live in Washington, and started battling competitively almost a year ago. I believe I'm pretty friendly, and I enjoy talking about things in general as well as reading. The highest I ever got on the ladder was around 1450, so I'm not the best. Thanks!

Apologies also wanted to request JabbaTheGriffin if possible.

Tell us a little about yourself:I am a Mechanical Engineering Student at the University of Cincinnati. I am pretty good at battling, but I suck at building teams. I am also pretty good at predicting, but I want to perfect that skill. My interests include video games, playing Magic the Gathering, reading, keeping my GPA up, and hanging with my friends. I have also been known to play tennis, run, and draw on occasions. I am a quick learner, and an willing to do what it takes to become a great battler.

Tell us a little about yourself: Been into competitive D/P since early 2008. Was once top 10 in old UU. Having only moderate success as of late I decided the nest round of tutoring would be a good idea. Team Building has been a struggle lately, in battle skills are pretty good. I'm a diehard Queen and Miami Hurricane fan. I'm a Sophmore in HS and play Football and Basketball. I excel in Writing + Oral Speaking and with some luck am pursuing a career as a sports broadcaster.

Tell us a little about yourself:I stopped playing for a long time almost a year. Over the last few months have tried getting into back into the game but for some reason just can't seem to get better then 1300 rating. I also have a small knowledge of the UU metagame and have tried to get into Ubers as well, but not recently. I'm on shoddy from 8-10 almost every day. I need to work on my battle style and team building.

Tell us a little about yourself: I've played Pokemon for over a year now, and I have gotten better from where I started. I've lurked on Smogon or over a year now and decided to register. I'd like to become better at this game, so I hope with this tutoring program that I can do so. I started out in the early days where Deoxys and Garchomp were still legal in the OU Metagame. I used a Rain Team that was made by RaikouLover. I started making my own teams and settled in as a battler. I'm a Sophomore hoping to someday Major is Psychology. Even though I do have a low post count, some of my posts have been deleted from entering Late Night Tournaments.

Tell us a little about yourself: Well i started competitive pokes in late 08 and recently have actually gotten to a decent level in my opinion. I play with a style of bulky offense and i try not to always rely on pure prediction, but to play simple. I really want to learn better team building and synergy and maybe how i can mix my simple style with nessicary prediction.

As for in real life i play sports including football and baseball, love watching sports, and i like to skii and some other shit.

Hope i get selected :)

Tell us a little about yourself:
Well, I'm not the best battler, but I'm alright. I'm looking to get back into Pokes, and I thought this would be a good way to do so.

OK we have a huge queue for this already, so I'm closing this thread. Everyone here (if you meet the requirement and stay active) will eventually get a tutor. If you really want a tutor quick and your online hours are flexible, you can post in another thread (Do NOT post in two threads without deleting the first one).
