Tell us a little about your experience in competitive Pokemon (min. 3 sentences): I've been around PO/PS since late 2010, but didn't get too much into competitive until early 2014. I played mostly BWOU at the time, and experimented with OU and UU during XY. I made this accounts namesake in 2015 and didnt really main anything bar UU until I took a break in late 2016/early 2017. I came back during the middle of last year, and I mained Monotype until about February of this year. Since then I've been playing mostly Old Gens, and playing in tours such as RCoP and RoA Olympics, but haven't seen much success, so I thought I'd start learning one gen at a time, and start with one of my favorites in RBY.

I've entered a shit ton of random tours notably the Mono OM Cup where I played AAA going 4-2 and I've decided to try my hand at mono as it seems like an interesting and fun MU based tier.
