BulbaNewsNOW posted this on their "Breaking News" Twitter.
>Fast and up to date posting on Pokémon news, from the staff at http://Bulbagarden.net

The site was opened in early July and the entire focus of it ended on Sunday.

That Slowpoke image is rather ironic.

pomf has been mocked since the /tr/ days because of the pedo shit. It crops back whenever he fucks up which is pretty fucking often.

even if you were only here since X/Y came out, he had already been soundly mocked for not having full updates months into the game's release - mocking him is not a 'new bandwagon'

It was worse when he got started in... March I think? I had some screens saved which more or less proved he was serious. At least the mods delete his threads with extreme prejudice now. When I see one it vanishes before I can even report it.

It may be because I emailed moot directly, or that the mods are sick of him too. Reporting is the best thing because it exhausts his proxies and slows him down.

the only unfortunate thing is that reporting only alerts the mods if they're actually on, and there used to be hours where no mods or janitors are on.

So I can only assume that they got their shit together and have a proper schedule where there are no holes now.

/vp/ used to hate Serebii more than Bulbapedia, the "Serebii confirmed" thing was a joke about how he tended to post wrong info on his news all the time.

Bulbapedia has always been mocked for being slow and the rumors about the pedo chats and secret forum are also old but outright hating Pomfret is something only the retarded new kids do to fit in.

This, in fact I'm p. sure Pomf was seen as a hero of sorts during Wottergate for criticizing Serebii and claiming the evos were fake. Plus he posted here semi-frequently and was generally treated well except when he started talking about his dumb fanfiction.

Don't get me wrong, Pomf is definitely worse than Serebii but Serebii isn't that great either. Dude has plenty of dirty laundry, but at least his laundry doesn't have children's underwear mixed in.

Yeah, I remember how Bulbapedia actually admitted liking it here because he could get honest feedback of what was wrong with the site due to the brutal honesty of 4chan.

Though I guess he doesn't come here anymore for the same reason most regulars left; the overwhelming crowd of newfags.

are you remembering things wrong? Because I'm pretty sure mocking/hating all the fansites were the thing to do in the early days - especially the shit that goes on in serebii's forums.

plus the bulbapedo thing is older than vp/tr, and was never something that was just glossed over either. If anything people here only liked him because of wottergate which of course blew up on his face.

The pedo rumors predate /tr/, and he's even admitted that he thinks age is just a number on here before.

Not sure what caused the hatred of Bulbapedia, though. I take frequent hiatuses from this place; must have happened during one of those.

I also thought "serebii confirmed" and "Matsuda stated" were annoying back when then but they were never this bad.

Serebii got elevated instantly by being right and maintaining it after 5th gen. Plus the guy's always been fast though I do know firsthand how he was an ass - I used to visit Pokemon Forever back in 2nd - 3rd gen, and Serebii would come in to shitpost whenever Meowth got some scans or info before Serebii did.

Which happened a lot. It took a long ass time for Serebii's Pokedex to even gain half the functionality of Meowth's old Pokedex - one would argue that it never did since it also kept track of illegal combinations.

A tad messy at first glance - though it's non-issue that old gen info can be hidden by default. Unfortunately it doesn't note special moves that event versions of the mon may carry, and no breeding chain info either - though that's less important in 6th gen now that mothers can also pass down moves.

It's pretty good though and I like how the location entry is linkable right from the pokemon's page which is incredibly handy, making it one the best ones for seeking out the best place for catching a wild mon.
