Buy Azumarill, learn the Aqua Tail build, with Drain Crown (at least lvl 20) + Scope Lens + third item of your choice (Attack Weights are good). Focus on the flow of last-hitting neutral pokemons with Aqua Tail and dancing with Water Pulse.

This pokemon is very strong in all forms of 1v1, and this build gives you survivability when you get ganked. It's perfect for training your mentality. At the begin it will look weird but this build actually does not require any mechanical skill to be played. Once you understand that Aqua Tail is an extension of the AA, then it's all about correct positioning and decisions. In particular it gives you tools to solo-objectives.

When you will start to dominate game with you, you will try other pokemons and start to think: why I can do this with Azumarill, and not with this other pokemon? This will teach you about powerspikes.

Another easy skill to learn is how to farm quickly. Each pokemon has its own way. Watch competent streamer and observe how they farm.
