Five and a half years ago, I joined Bulbapedia. I didn't know wikicode, and I didn't have any new info to contribute. I kept myself busy watching better users in the recent changes, and making minor corrections. As I watched other users editing, I picked up some basic wikicode and got an understanding of the policies and rules. A year later, I started dabbling in templates, and never looked back. And I've enjoyed it all. But I no longer have the time to lead Bulbapedia, and it's time for me to step down as Editor-in-Chief.
We have entered a new chapter in the ongoing history of Bulbapedia, and with each new chapter comes a new deputy. As with all previous deputies, the person chosen to hold this position has shown astounding dedication to the betterment of Bulbapedia. She has been a member of staff for almost four years, with two of them as a member of the {{bp|Editorial Board}}. She had made significant advancements for our manga section as both the Head of Manga and leader of {{bp|Project Manga}}. Bulbapedia's new Deputy Editor-in-Chief is {{u|Zesty Cactus}}.


Thanks to Archaic and the vice-webmasters, for creating the site and keeping the technical aspects running. To TTEchidna, for leading the site while I was learning the ropes, and inspiring me to create templates. To MAGNEDETH, for keeping the site going during some rough times, and for trusting me with the reins to the site. To Kogoro, my deputy, for helping me with the work and letting me bounce ideas. To the Editorial Board, for keeping the sections of the site progressing, and to all staff, for showing leadership and dedicating time and effort to improving the site. But most of all, thanks to every user, for making Bulbapedia, and this community, what it is. Without all of you, Bulbapedia could not be what it is today.
This also means that there is a new Head of Manga. The Head of Manga takes the responsibility of overseeing all manga-related matters and is the highest authority on these matters, behind the Editor-in-Chief, Deputy Editor-in-Chief, and Editorial Board as a whole. The person chosen to undertake the responsibilities of this position has shown himself to be dedicated and highly experienced in the Pokémon manga. Welcome to the Editorial Board, {{u|Ataro}}, and congratulations.


Taking my place will be {{u|Kogoro}}. She has a lot of experience as an Editorial Board member, and has shown initiative for improving user experience. I hope you all welcome her to the role, and I look forward to seeing Bulbapedia develop under her leadership.
A number of additional very deserving users are receiving promotions. Congratulations {{u|ArcToraphim}}, {{u|Masatoshi}}, {{u|Pokemaster97}}, {{u|Spriteit}}, {{u|Crystal Talian}}, {{u|G50}}, and {{u|Funktastic~!}}. A number of new {{bp|Junior Administrator}}s will also be joining the staff in the coming days, keep an eye out for them.
