How much competitive battling experience do you have?
I've been playing pokemon
- on my gba for 13 years now
- 2 years on pokemonworldonline.

How much do you know of each Pokemon?
- I know all pokemon, evolving lvls, attacks, types... of Kanto,Jotho, Hoën and Sinnoh
Do you know names and types? Cool! But it'd be better if you knew their movepool and competitive sets.
 
How's your maths?
I like to make combo's with pikachu's thunder wave and victrebel's wrap. Doesn't matter how strong the opponent is, they just can't attack anymore.

Bet you're wishing you passed that last exam.
Yeah, then I got something to do:D

Why do you think you would be useful when testing the PU metagame?


Why do you think we should pick you?
- I know every statistic of more then 600 pokemon by my head.
- I got a lot of experience in pokemonworldonline which was a little bit the same like this.
- I'm very dedicated if i get a task.
- I got a lot of experience with servers(I know what's possible and what not)

What changes do you think should be made to the current metagame?
Do you think there are big balance concerns in standard Pokemon? Do you hate Stealth Rock? Tell us here!
- gaining lvls with pokemon should be much harder
- introducing "fishing lvl" would be awsome(so it takes a lot of time to get rare pokemon by fishing)

How much competitive battling experience do you have? Been Playing Pokemon Online for a while, been using UU pokemon effectively in higher tiers.
How much do you know of each Pokemon? I know their name, typings, and some stats, also can think of some possibly useable sets for many pokemon.
Do you know names and types? Cool! But it'd be better if you knew their movepool and competitive sets.
How's your maths? I'll be taking Algebra II Honors (11th Grade level Math) in 10th Grade, I'm pretty good at math.
Bet you're wishing you passed that last exam.

Why do you think you would be useful when testing the PU metagame? I've been Playing a while, and I know how each pokemon should work.
Why do you think we should pick you? I've been here a while, and I know my Pokemon well.
What changes do you think should be made to the current metagame? I think some pokemon need some nerfing, mainly the gen V ones, most of the rest are underpowered, with few useable ones, many with useable stats have terrible movepools, ones with Movepools that are nice have horrible stats.
Do you think there are big balance concerns in standard Pokemon? Do you hate Stealth Rock? Tell us here! I do think there are big balance concerns with pokemon, Primarily the Gen V ones. Conkeldurr and Hydreigon are two good examples of Pokemon that are largely overpowered. Conkeldurr has Moves to abuse his abilities, Drain Punch, Bullet Punch, and Mach Punch, all with a massive 140 attack stat and Iron Fist, with Huge bulk of 105/95/65, with it's only weak stat being it's Special Defense, but it's still hard to Knock it out, even with super effective Psychic attacks. Hydreigon Has Bulk, Attack, and a Useful moveset of Powerful Stab attacks, both physical and special.

Favourite Pokemon:

* I like all pokemon so no favourite
* How much competitive battling experience do you have?

* I have been playing all the pokemon games including the card game since the first generation came out when i was 7 years old, so i have a lot of experience
*
How much do you know of each Pokemon?

* I know all pokemon types and type match-ups i know the best move sets for battling and all pokemon natures and abilities, I also know each pokemon's movepool incluiding which tm/hm's they can learn, I also know of each improvement made to pokemon throughout each generation and the not so good ideas game freak incorperated into each game

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

* My maths is fine as long im not having to do any algebra
*
Bet you're wishing you passed that last exam.

Why do you think you would be useful when testing the PU metagame?

* I feel, I'd be useful when testing the PU game because I have so much experience and so much data at hand, and i also know what idea have worked in previous games and what ideas havn't
*
Why do you think we should pick you?

* You should pick me because I have a passion for pokemon and i want to share my love of pokemon with the whole pokemon community, i know what makes a great pokemon game and being a world of warcraft player i also know what makes a great mmorpg and i feel that putting my knowledge to good use will help make this a very popular game for the pokemon community
*
What changes do you think should be made to the current metagame?

* I think there have been balance concerns ever since pokemon abilites were introduced, in the first and second gen pokemon games (red/blue/yellow/gold/silver/crystal) no player had an advantage over the other, you had to win battles using pure knowledge and skill, personally i think that should be bought back and if like me you have had to try a stupid amount of moves against shedinja to see which one worked maybe you agree

Do you think there are big balance concerns in standard Pokemon? Do you hate Stealth Rock? Tell us here!

* Again yes i think most blance concerns come with pokemon abilities

How much competitive battling experience do you have? not a whole lot, but still a good bit. I've been playing since i was a kid, but only recently had the ability to play against other people. Its absolutely a blast.

How much do you know of each Pokemon? a little here, a little there. But I'm always doing research on Smogon and Bulbapedia, along with experience through guess and test experiments.

Do you know names and types? Cool! But it'd be better if you knew their movepool and competitive sets. (I know some of there movepools and stats, but I haven't memorized everything) And I know a little of there competitive sets, but I usually like to try out my own ideas.

How's your maths? Its ok. Its my favorite subject though, So if i don't know something, i can learn it.
Bet you're wishing you passed that last exam.

Why do you think you would be useful when testing the PU metagame?I love to play over Wi-Fi And have some experience in battling other players. I like to win without using Legendaries, and battle with the pokemon I love to use. I'd be able to test often, though not always. (lol I do have a life) And it would give me a chance to gain experience as well, allowing me to be an even better asset.

Why do you think we should pick you? Because I'd enjoy it, and you would have a dedicated tester.

What changes do you think should be made to the current metagame?
Do you think there are big balance concerns in standard Pokemon? Do you hate Stealth Rock? Tell us here! hhhmmmm.....I feel that despite how good it is, Drizzle+Swift Swim shouldn't be banned to uber play. (Though Kyogre is definitely Uber) So if Politoad had its DW ability Drizzle, and Kabutops with Swift Swim was on your team, it shouldn't be Uber. Even Kingdra with Swift Swim.

How much do you know of each Pokemon? I know about every attack in the red/blue/green games.
Do you know names and types? I dont know that lot of the later generations.
How's your maths? B+

Why do you think you would be useful when testing the PU metagame?
Why do you think we should pick you? Because I am a really dedicated gamer. And I do not screw you over. I play wow at a competetive stage and am dedicated to whatever i sign up for.
What changes do you think should be made to the current metagame? idk yet.
Do you think there are big balance concerns in standard Pokemon? Do you hate Stealth Rock? Tell us here! :D
