Smogon Social Media
HOW TO CONTRIBUTE
To be frank, we're always looking for more people to contribute to Smogon's media outlets. Social media is a very sentient being, changing and evolving every day, every hour, every minute.. Not only do we report on news and site happenings, but we also actively engage our audience(s) with the best competitive Pokemon information that we have to offer. If YOU are at all interested in bringing your own creativity and knowledge of a particular metagame or competitive Pokemon in general, then this is the place to be!
If you want to try and contribute something to Facebook, Twitter, or Youtube, contact antemortem and he'll gladly guide you on your way. We also HIGHLY encourage the discussion of competitive Pokemon in regards to social media (new things to post, recent Pokemon of the Week write-ups on Facebook, and so on) so that we can discover potential concepts and work on getting better at everything we do.
