As for Bulbapedia, I don't know however it could be a glitch. They have a forums where you can maybe ask in their help boards about this issue. It would maybe be best to try getting the password reset if they have a way to reset the password so you can change it to another one.

As for reliability, I meant as with the fact that anyone can edit it. pokemon.wikia.com is not a reliable source on Bulbapedia/Wikipedia, the same way Wikipedia or Bulbapedia are not reliable on pokemon.wikia.com or any other wiki for that matter. For example, another page on the same wiki isn't a reliable source either on one page since it's editable by everyone and therefore might not be correct, but at least since we both edit the same wiki, if there's something incorrect, it's easy to change - a wiki is more of like a community project for sharing facts and information about a subject, though anyone can edit it since it's a community site, any wiki works like that. I don't mean "unreliable" as in that it guarantees login issues, that's a different thing.

Bulbapedia has weak servers and has many glitches. For example, there was one that the CAPTCHA wouldn't display and no one could create an account. The best thing to do from here is either wait and try again while making sure your cache/cookies on it are cleared or ask on their forums (forums.bulbagarden.net).

Edit: See https://forums.bulbagarden.net/index.php?threads/cant-create-an-account.242404/#post-6337797 - looks like others are having the same problem, it can be posted in that thread and wait to see if the staff on Bulbagarden can resolve the issue.
