BBL: Mentorship Program

[LagunaX1]

Hey, I just made a post about building a Steel Team. I'm new to competitive battling so a possible mentorship from the Steel Gym Leader might do me some good. (And pave the way for me to defeat his Steel with Steel!!! MWAHAHAHAhahha..ha.haa am I typing this?)

Obviously I'd need to wait till he finished with the first person he is mentoring but I'm fine with that. I'll learn what I can in other ways till then!

I'll add you to the waiting list, thanks. I'm sure Lunacy'd be happy to answer any questions you might have in the meantime if you drop him a VM or PM.

Hello, I just registered here!

I'm a long time pokemon fan but I'm a total competitive noob ahah, I'm looking to learn a lot from this community
Was hoping I could be assigned to a Mentor.

I do have skype. But will I have to use my mic? It's kinda broken and I'm a bit shy to be honest.

Sorry, I missed your post somehow! D: I'll add you to the waiting list, this batch of apprentices should be done soon-ish and then we can get you assigned.

I'd like a mentor. I played some competitive Pokemon in gen 4, skipped gen 5 and forgot just about everything. I do have skype and a microphone.
I generally prefer more defensive Pokemon and tend to shun the fragile speedsters. I've always played a defensive game in every game I've played, and I prefer to keep it that way when possible.

Can I be an apprentice? I really want to get into competitive battling. I don't have Skype, and I'm not getting it.

I'd like to give this a shot as an apprentice. I'd love to figure out how to get the Pokemon I like so much to a competitive point. And I do have a Skype, with a mic 'n all.

Your mentor will be me, the Dark Elite 4. You won't need Skype, that is a personal requirement for AnybodyAgrees.

Oh dude sorry! I was just going from after the posts after the last apprentice, LagunaX, was assigned. I didn't realize you got skipped, I'll put you back on top.

Out of curiosity, how long is the wait, how is it decided who your mentor is, and what rules is it following? (Like, smogen or the pokemon championships rules I mean)

 

[AnybodyAgrees]

Your mentor is usually the first one available.
The wait is until a mentee has graduated and a mentor becomes available.
The BBL follows standard Smogon OU rules.
