Water Max's Blog

Today is my second Bulbaversary because it has been two years since I joined the forums. This blog entry is written in a very similar style to my first Bulbaversary blog entry.

I lurked for a month before joining. I first joined the forums to discuss the Pokémon video games, anime and news. During my time here I have also posted in forums I didn't think I would be posting in originally such as the Fun and Games, The Garden Grotto, Entertainment Inc. forums as well as the Pokémon News from Bulbanews and Pokémon Video Games forums. In June 2011 I started writing articles for Bulbanews and was eventually hired to be a writer for Bulbanews on 14 December 2011.

In my second year here I have posted much less in the Garden Grotto and Entertainment Inc forums but I am still friends with the users who I met in those forums in my first year. In September 2012 my username became italicised and I started to learn more about the other members of staff of Bulbagarden. From October 2012 I started trading online in the Bulbagarden Global Trade Station by making my own Offering Oblivia Deoxys thread which is still active. In total I have written 13 articles on Bulbanews this year which is 6 less than last year but I have made other contributions such as editing and publishing draft articles by other users and updating the Bulbanews page about current events.

Thank you everyone for making me feel welcome on the forums and I would like to thank some specific people especially who are:
