With popular columns such as On the Origin of Species and Crunching the Numbers on a break, we are looking for talented writers to share their interests with the Pokémon fandom at large. You would get to pick your own topic (on consultation with the Board of Editors) and update schedule, but you are expected to keep to Bulbanews's editorial standards in regards to writing style and reliability.
