How much competitive battling experience do you have? Well i played PWO & most of the GB games
How much do you know of each Pokemon? TBH i dont know that much about each pokemon other than their name and type except for the few that i had actually caught and used in battle, otherwise i just tend to just look it up in an online pokedex and see what moves it has and what's their effect.
How's your maths? loflololol oh boy, well calculus 101.
 

Why do you think you would be useful when testing the PU metagame?
i'm bored and i just finished college so i have nothing better to do that sit around and fight with pokemons, heck i'd play that sucky ass PWO all day if the server stayed up long enough, also i pay great attention to details, i tend to use support moves as well, and combine moves as much as possible, like one major imballance in PWO is ratata, yes you heard that right, next time you come across a lvl 4 ratata and you have a lvl 8 starter pokemon you better run, because if you get a tail whip and a tackle directly after you're dead.
What changes do you think should be made to the current metagame?
yeah actually there are a lot of balance issues in standard pokemon games, most of the time you catch a few good battle pokemons the rest are just for keeping or adding to your pokedex. so i hope with this balance project you'll put an end to that.

Favourite Pokemon: I can't say, I love all of em.... but if I had to choose, It would be between ninetails, mightyena, haunter and abra or one of the Evee series
How much competitive battling experience do you have?
I would say I have enough, I have played the Pokemon Soul Silver, platinum, black, pearl and diamond versions.
How much do you know of each Pokemon?
I know most their basic resistance and weaknesses, I can also guess their skills based on their generation and body type.

Do you know names and types? Cool! But it'd be better if you knew their movepool and competitive sets.

How's your maths?
Well, I'm still a learning sprout. I'm taking advanced stage 2 math. (2c.2d) in year 11

Why do you think you would be useful when testing the PU metagame?
Why do you think we should pick you? I've always loved the Pokemon series and I would love to help build an online community for Pokemon lovers like me! I also have a sharp eye for details and come in a package of endless ideas and observations.

What changes do you think should be made to the current metagame?
I've always thought that the Pokemon games did have slight balance issues, especially in Emerald for some reason. The issue where Pokemon get too strong or comparing the exp gain rate to the WildPokemon difficulty also became a problem to me at some point in a few series. These may not be very appropriate, but hearing that you'd liek to improve on the pOkemon state.. I just want to help you in that journey....

How much competitive battling experience do you have? None what so ever
How much do you know of each Pokemon? I know nothing what so ever about competative pokemon battling because i stopped playing back in Emerald before the whole online feature came out, i don't even own a DS.
How's your maths? Currently doing Advanced Mathamatics/Engineering studies and Physics at High School

Why do you think you would be useful when testing the PU metagame?
I will represent the clear majority of players who will most likely be coming here to start out just collecting pokemon and later getting into the late game such as battling competativly against other players or just friendly battles with there mates...Also i didn't lie on this application and im Australian, also im quite active in the PU Chatroom when im not busy doing school work.
What changes do you think should be made to the current metagame?

How much competitive battling experience do you have? A LOT!!!
How much do you know of each Pokemon? I know enough: Evolving level, skills learning level and description of it.
Do you know names and types? Cool! But it'd be better if you knew their movepool and competitive sets.
How's your maths?
Bet you're wishing you passed that last exam.
:)) good :))

Favourite Pokemon: Anything Eevee-wise, specifically, Leafeon.

How much competitive battling experience do you have? Little, considering I have had few opportunities for competitve battling.

How much do you know of each Pokemon? Not much, but that's what Bulbapedia is for.. I'm also willing to put in the effort to learn them.

How's your maths? As long as it's just numbers, sharp as a razor. I'm proficient with Algebra as well.

Why do you think you would be useful when testing the PU metagame?
I want to help in any way possible, I figured I may have some hidden potential, so I just have to find it.
 
What changes do you think should be made to the current metagame?
Some say Dragon-types need to be nerfed, but, I say just their weakness to Ice is their downfall. Beyond that, there are still others that are ridiculously Overpowered as well, Garchomp, Salamence, Wobbuffet.

The Dragons are a stat-issue, so it's fixable. Wobbuffet is the fact that it can learn several moves that are gamebreakers:

Destiny Bond, Counter, Mirror Coat... those are the culprits..

I'd adjust it so that it can only have one of those three in its set moves.


(Note: I have PO now, so I'm going to plenty of experience in that regard.)
