Poke Center Tutoring Project - Apprentice Applications (Tutor apps still open)

[Fuelbi]

Yeah, but not for stuff of what IVs are or whatever

 

[Kofu]

I could use a tutor.

I'm not bad by any means, but I like to play in an unorthodox way.

 

[rockem7]

Yeah, but not for stuff of what IVs are or whatever

I don't think that this is about that, more or less just what to expect when you're in a battle like "Oh he sent out Zapdos on your (insert rock type), that probably means he has HP Grass." I just need help with my predicting and I need to become more comfortable in a specific tier, I guess I'm trying to find my niche. And so far it's looking like UU.

Tier (s)?

Basically this yeah

I just need to know how to predict on purpose and not 6 stock an entire enemy team by accident because you did not predict on purpose (which actually happened to me )

 

[Kofu]

Tier (s)?

OU, maybe UU.

 

[Riddle]

I'm going to go ahead and open apprentice applications right now. You may still apply to be a tutor, but I think we have plenty tbh. So apply if you want to learn.

 

[UltiMario]

Well, I can help Kofu with OU, since I'll assume his request counts too.

 

[rockem7]

I'd like some help with UU, if anyone is interested.

 

[Zankoku]

I'll take any specific requests for me, since I'm not really sure how good my qualifications are for picking someone out. OU only, unfortunately. : \

 

[kirbyraeg]

Teach me, somebody awesome.

 

[Riddle]

[Fuelbi]

Why do I feel that it's ironic that Ultimario's the one teaching me?

 

[Wave⁂]

Is there going to be a tournament of some sort, or are we just tutoring?

 

[rockem7]

Is there going to be a tournament of some sort, or are we just tutoring?

I was going to suggest something like that, but the problem is that the tiers everyone is learning vary.

 

[Riddle]

[Wave⁂]

Hm. Well, I'm think there's like four people learning OU...

 

[Terywj [태리]]

Alright, cool. How long are these sessions again?

They're as long as you feel like you need, but try to stay within a 1-3 week range.
