The Smogon Discord Server is looking for new live team raters! As the discord amasses users, the demand for live team rating grows. To better accommodate this and provide more robust metagame knowledge in the discord, we are looking for members with knowledge of various metas to join and have their name added to our Team Rater roster.

ON Format: We will be switching to a new format this time, on a trial basis. We will be utilizing Discord's newest Forum feature to try and organize rates a little better. When this goes live, we hope to hear any feedback on it!

CURRENT COMP HELPERS PLEASE NOTE: You don't have to sign up via this thread, you will be grandfathered in for your respective tiers.

Requirements to apply:
  1. Active on the forums or a Smogon-affiliated discord for at least 3 months.
  2. Solid knowledge of metagame fundamentals and the tier that you are desiring to rate - this can be proven via replays, interviews, vouches, etc.
  3. Willingness to adhere to a certain threshold of decorum in the discord/model the behaviors we'd like to see in those channels.
  4. Once accepted, a minimum level of activity that will be assessed by Server Leaders monthly.

The rewards are a different role color and the ever-desired reacts! After a minimum threshold of rates, your time spent as a competitive helper/team rater will be used in determining the Live Chat Contributor badge award or the Team Rater badge award!

Application format:
To apply, please post in this thread with::
  • Your discord name.
  • The meta you'd like to rate.
  • A brief summary of your experience in that meta.
  • Ways you've demonstrated knowledge of the metagame. This can be done via tour matches, articles written, forum team rating examples, tier leaders/council members who would vouch for you, etc. (It is especially helpful if examples of these things are given)
After posting, a server staff member will contact you if you have been chosen. Please direct any questions to Kaede or any other server Leader.

FAQs:

Will this get me SDC or Team Rater?


Maybe! Consistent activity in the rater role is a good path to being nominated for those badges. However, we look at the context of your rates and behavior in the discord as well. In addition, quality and quantity are often held proportional to the specific tier you rate. So for eg, if you rate a tier with low traffic you may get the badge with a lower amount of quantity, or if quantity is low but quality is high it may also net you the badge.

How many rates do I have do perform?

This depends largely on the meta you rate for. For current gen metagames, 1-2 average rates per day is ideal. For older gens and lower tiers that don't get much traffic, the number may drop significantly. If you find you aren't getting many requests for your meta, please drop by the #comp_gen channels - knowledgeable users on any metagame are always appreciated there, as the concepts and thought processes are shared by many metagames.

Will we be notified of potential rates?

We're hoping to get a bot up and running sooner than later to automatically ping raters, but in the meantime we'll be reliant on pings from ratees.

How many raters do you need for {tier}?

Slots are more or less unlimited. We're welcoming to any number of raters possible for each tier!


Live rating in the Discord carries with it challenges that make it unique from other areas of Smogon ratings. In order to make sure all of our live raters get proper support (and credit!) for their activities in the discord, we've established some general guidelines and information for rating teams in those channels.


General Guidelines:

  • Be kind and respectful. The discord is home to many players who have just started to venture into competitive play. Things you may consider to be obvious may not be quite so obvious to that player.
  • Do not rate for metagames you are unfamiliar with, and always clarify metagame before rating if one is not clearly stated in the request.
  • Don't fix what cannot be fixed. If a team is so broken that it would require replacing the majority of the pokemon and sets, or the sets indicate a complete lack of competitive knowledge, please refer that player to the samples for their meta.
  • If a team is currently being rated in one channel, try to move a new request to the other channel. If both channels are being used, please minimize back-and-forth chat between the requestor and yourself.
  • Stay on topic. If a user asks questions unrelated to their specific team being rated, please guide them back to #Comp-General. The intent is to keep those channels clean so that other players can see the logic being used in the teambuliding process.
  • Don't be afraid to ask clarifying questions. If you see information that indicates the user may not be understanding metagames as a whole (building for a meta with several unavailable mons in that meta is a good example), please try to guide them to where they intended to be.


Format:
  • Discord's format makes it easy to get confused or talk over individual users. To minimize this, please notify the requestor that you are going to be providing a rate, then keep as much of the text of the actual rate contained to as few messages as possible.
  • If submitting a corrected team, please use PokePaste.
  • Try to minimize jargon wherever possible - use a pokemon's full name when providing it, and the full names of the moves, to reduce confusion among newer players.

Rules Enforcement:
  • If a user is abusing the channels, breaking rules, or being consistently non-contributive, please bring it to the attention of server staff.
  • If you have concerns about the quality of another rater's contributions, please let staff know privately.

Downtime:
  • If you are not getting many rating opportunities for your meta, please hang out with us in #comp-gen. There are often questions regarding mechanics and metagames that new players will ask there, so it's a good opportunity to be a resource for others.

Absence/Changes:
  • If you need to be away for awhile and won't be active, that's fine! Please let server staff know ahead of time, though. Unannounced, prolonged periods of time without rates can result in your competitive helper role being revoked.
  • If you no longer feel confident in rating a meta (maybe you haven't played in awhile, or you've focused on a different meta), please let us know.

The meta you'd like to rate. UU

A brief summary of your experience in that meta. I originally started playing UU around July of 2020 and haven’t looked back since. I was also in the most recent finals in UUFPL, starting all but one game. Moreover, I had a decent showing in UU Swiss, going 4–3 after a rough 0-2 start.

Ways you've demonstrated knowledge of the metagame. Though I haven’t been drafted to any big UU tournaments, I’m still actively trying to improve in the tier. I’ve written many analyses for the Pokemon in the tier, and have written an article in the past 2 years, and have been very active in the forum projects before being shut down. In addition, I recently received a community contributor badge in December 2022 for being an active contributor on the forums and Discord.

Meta: 1v1 (all generations)
Experience: Have been playing 1v1 since the beginning of SM, former 1v1 room voice. Have knowledge of 1v1 building fundamentals in all generations due to having played in literally every generation still in 1v1 teamtours at the teamtour level (SS SM ORAS BW) including the multigen slot. Have missed two teamtours since I started playing (PL 2 and WC 1) and still have as many wins on the sheet (18) as fraud waylaid (carried to PL wins by cash).
Ways that I’ve demonstrated knowledge:
-ORAS cup finalist
-BW cup semifinalist
-Won 1v1PL 5 and played for two 1v1 WC teams that set win records in pools, where I went positive for both.
- one time I brought the same team 3 games in a row and won the set 3-0

is a Community Leader
VGC Leader
Discord name: Eeveon7♪#6561
Metagame: VGC

Experience: I have been teambuilding and playing VGC since 2020, having experience with a wide variety in many, constantly evolving metagames. (Crucial for VGC as we have changing rulesets every 2-3 months). I have also been a part of every Smogon VGC draft league (amongst others such as WCOP VGC) and am consistently performing well on Showdown ladder, proving my proficiency in these formats. I am also currently hosting VGC Winter League II! (Hopefully means something lol)

Knowledge: Smogon VGC Discord Moderator, VGC Forum Moderator, and VGC Room Voice. These three roles I possess in the Smogon/PS community display my knowledge of the metagame and ability to help others in their VGC endeavors (In this case, rate teams). I am also involved in a VGC Community project called VGCPastes (Twitter), who's objective is to collect VGC teams and statistics to compile into a single place, meaning I interact with many VGC teams daily. In addition, we cover every VGC tournament and show off the top performing teams! (Gives me a good idea as to what's doing well in the format, especially amongst every other team that's submitted to our repository)
In terms of who could vouch for me, zee, yuki, or any Smogon VGC moderator could.

Name - Drifting#2160
Format - LC (All Gens)
Ways I’ve demonstrated my knowledge of this format -
  • Started playing in ORAS
  • Done well in tournament, made top 32 of LC Open (3000+ entrants), my team made playoffs in the most recent LCPL and I went 5-2 in the most recent LC tournament (LPL).
  • Contributed many building resources, such as running the SVLC Sample Teams thread, the speed tiers for SV and SS, and the SSLC Teambuilding Competition
  • Active in key LC threads such as the Viability Rankings, Sample Teams, Q&A and Metagame Discussion threads, as well as doing analysis for the Official LC Youtube Channel, written about SVLC for The Flying Press
  • Written multiple LC analyses and participated in multiple LC Suspect Tests
  • Known for LC building, I'm often providing the teams for multiple teammates during LC tours and have had a few of my teams become common on ladder and in big individual tours like TLT. I was LC support for the Foxes in SCL, and despite our LC player being a ZU main he ended up with one of the best records. I've also participated in LC forum building projects like this year's Secret Santa.
  • I'm often rating and making fixes for teams posted by users in the LC Discord and LC PS! Room (where I'm a voice), so I'm used to this kind of thing.
  • I've done both submissions and ratings for LC in the RMT forum in the past.
  • I'm very active in Smogon discords (mostly LC but others too).

A brief summary of your experience in that meta.

I've been around in the Ubers community for approximately 3 years now, my experience is going from playing in tournaments (UPL, seasonal, Ubers World Cup where I managed and won in Team France), to writing stuffs like this article and this RMT, (both of them are collabs indeed but I had an important presence in the writing of them) alongside a good amount of analysis written in the past generation. I've also been a tutor in the final stages of SS Ubers, having completed my first tutoring a few days ago. I've finally joined recently the Ubers QC Team. I'm quit sure most members of the Ubers council can vouch for me.

Meta I'd like to rate: Ss OU and Sv OU

As for ss ou I've participated in a lot of tournaments and done well on them. A few examples whould be adpl seasons 4 and 5 in which I went 3-1 and 2-1 respectively and in wcopp where I went 3-1(link to the wcopp doc as proof https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1HgsQkmh74Clo2He7pvXQKZNPHh7Fzlybe_xmkmgJtXI/edit?usp=sharing) (also made it to top 100 of ss but ladder is not really a representationof someones skill)(picture below).

As for teambuilding experience I've posted numerous teams in the ss ou bazaar which I ended using in my tour games and did well with.

In sv case I don't really have much show of skill representations but I feel the building is quite similar to ss and have made it too 500 ladder.
