After [[Bulbagarden]] went down in 2001, [[Anenga (person)|Chris]] (the infamous Bulbagarden himself) announced his newest project, '''Anenga'''.

Short for "'''An'''ime, '''En'''tertainment, and '''Ga'''mes" (leaving out the other sections: Life, Music, and Technology), exactly what Anenga was to become remains ambiguous today. At first, it was going to be the first product of a proprietary software that he was developing with a friend. It would be a sort of "cool" [[wp:Slashdot|Slashdot]] with less of a geek focus.

In 2003, the forums were opened to the public and some page demos were shown. Would Anenga finally open after two long years of speculation? Would the [[BMGf]] community finally reunite in a new permanent location (we had spent the previous two years desperately holding together in a series of splinter bulliten boards like Water Croc's Crib, Shy Guy's Toy Box, Sakaki's board, and BMGfR)?

Alas, the answer would be an unsuprising and resounding "no".

The introduction of [[wp:TikiWiki|TikiWiki]] changed Anenga's focus considerably. Now it was to be a "media hub." It would become this über-site with user submitted news, articles, blogs, and more. Months passed without a word from Chris (save for an almost non-existant "demo") and we pretty much lost any hope that we had of ever seeing a completed Anenga.

Perhaps Anenga became a victim of its own promise? Was Chris too ambitious in his plans for the site? As he became more and more involved in [[wp:Shareaza|Shareaza]], he seemed to lose interest in Anenga.

In any case, Anenga seems to have suffered from the same fate as many of his pet projects. The forums are still heavily populated today by many of the most well known (and probably forgotten) faces of the old BMGf. Chris, himself, seems to have completely disappeared from the internet. He pops up from time to time on AIM, perhaps to remind us that he does, in fact, exist.

Update: Anenga Forums has moved to http://anenga.secondimpact.net

Anenga (person)

Tenchi-Oak:

'''Anenga''', also known as Chris, or Bulba, was the original founder of [[Bulbagarden]] and [[Anenga (site)|Anenga]].

There has been much debate over whether or not Chris is in fact a real person. At this point, we aren't entirely sure. In any case, he once existed, even going so far as to mail out Christmas cards. And robots don't have handwriting that bad.

Talk:List of shippings

Awwww bugger. Anyone know how to fix the formatting for this page? It doesn't seem to like me at all. Perhaps it's the page length? Over 43kb. --[[User:Archaic|Archaic]] 02:35, 26 Dec 2004 (GMT)

Holy crap O_o. I never remember there being this many shipping groups. Is there anything that hasn't been shipped. I think I'm still on the webpage for Chaos Rocket's Pallet Shipping group. And Archaic, try line breaks? --[[User:Tenchi-Oak|Tenchi-Oak]] 09:49, 25 Dec 2004 (EST)

Will we ever see a completed Anenga? Probaby not.

Professor Oak

2004-12-26T02:22:46Z

Tenchi-Oak:

'''Professor Samuel Oak''' is located in [[Pallet Town]]; he is the giver of the [[Pokédex]] to all beginning [[Pokémon_trainer|trainers]] in the classic games. In the Anime, Oak is most notable for his often-forgetful attitude and other antics.

Also, it is frequently alleged that the good professor is in a more-or-less serious relationship with Ash's mother. They at least seem to have a flirtatious friendship going.

Tenchi-Oak:

One of the founding members of the original Bulbagarden. This guy has been a huge part of the BMGf community for years. He now is arguably in charge of Anenga (if any one person can truly be in charge of that pit of anarchy). He has more or less disappeared from the BMGf community today, but still maintains connections and friendships with many who made the site what it is today.
