A warm welcome to the new Editor-in-Chief, {{u|MAGNEDETH}}, and a hearty farewell to the guy making this edit, {{u|TTEchidna}}.
It is a new year, and with this new year brings many new things to Bulbapedia! I sure hope everyone can keep up!


While TTE will not be leaving Bulbapedia as a whole, his active responsibility, which has been increasingly sparse over the past few months, will be ended. This comes after a particularly high-stress time; going through graduate classes and attempting to keep 649 Pokémon species straight really can wear you down to the point of insanity, especially when coupled with a part-time job at a world-famous store where customer interaction is ''constant''.
I'll start with me. Hi, I am the new {{bp|Editor-in-Chief}} of Bulbapedia, {{u|MAGNEDETH}}. Getting used to the new position is tough but I am up for the task. There are changes on the way, but for the most part, the same easy-to-use and informative Bulbapedia will be here for you. However, some changes on the horizon will be aimed to make both surfing and editing the site easier. Give it time, they are on the horizon.


And so, an era ends. From this point on, all Bulbapedia Editors-in-Chief will serve in their position for two years, and then pass on this position to another user of their choosing, with the approval of {{u|Archaic}}. A longer message can be found in the Bulbawiki general forum on the Bulbagarden forums, where well-wishing and criticism can be given. '''''Please do not leave messages on TTE's talk page.'''''
Next up we have the release of two main series games. There will be a lot of new information to add to the site and we can really use ''your'' help to handle it. New Pokémon, moves, locations, items, you name it! It should be noted that a lockdown may happen, but we don't want to do that. Rest assured, if it does happen, its simply done to relieve server stress. We don't like preventing our users from editing, but we also don't like when no one can see the site because it's masked behind a big '''504''' error.


And so, folks, I wish you all well. Me? I'm going on vacation in two weeks.

January 11

It is a new year, and with this new year brings many new things to Bulbapedia! I sure hope everyone can keep up!

I'll start with me. Hi, I am the new Editor-in-Chief of Bulbapedia, MAGNEDETH. Getting used to the new position is tough but I am up for the task. There are changes on the way, but for the most part, the same easy-to-use and informative Bulbapedia will be here for you. However, some changes on the horizon will be aimed to make both surfing and editing the site easier. Give it time, they are on the horizon.

Next up we have the release of two main series games. There will be a lot of new information to add to the site and we can really use your help to handle it. New Pokémon, moves, locations, items, you name it! It should be noted that a lockdown may happen, but we don't want to do that. Rest assured, if it does happen, its simply done to relieve server stress. We don't like preventing our users from editing, but we also don't like when no one can see the site because it's masked behind a big 504 error.

And lastly, but by no means least, the Bulbagarden Archives, an extremely important part of our site that is often overlooked. All of our images stem from our Archives, so don't forget about it! There are plenty of images this site needs and you can help upload them. But be aware, the Archives are closely moderated due to its important activity, so make sure to read the rules before helping out.

For any suggestions, comments, issues, or whatnot, you can visit the Bulbapedia section of the Bulbagarden forums. Thanks to all of our users for your continued effort and have fun.
