Although I enjoy watching videos about possible theories and speculation for upcoming pokemon games,
Gamexplain being a good example of a channel that delivers great content and plausible theories.
Then I also come across the other type of 'poketubers' that have a large following
(you probably know who they are) that I feel are just embarrassingly terrible. They add absolutely nothing to a discussion, you learn nothing new that you already didn't know. They come up with
the shittiest theories known to man... I really fail to see what makes them popular? All i'm essentially watching is full grown men heavy breathing into a camera, making dying noises reacting to pokemon news. They love to use other peoples work in their videos and thumbnails, do the original creators receive anything in return? Is a mention in the description (who the fuck looks in a description?) enough? How is that content? Granted that most of them post other videos on other pokemon properties, those videos alone don't warrant the amount of subscribers they have. And don't get me started on the clickbait titles :/
These guys are making a tON of money, they sell their own pokemon merchandise (somehow) but they put no effort into what they're producing. They shit out videos everyday, trying to workout if a cloud looks like a pokemon? Am I missing something here?
