The EVOLUTION of POKEMON on Youtube
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 бер 2024
- Pokemon has been on UA-cam ever since the website's earliest days. As the platform has changed, so have the creators and their content. This is the complete history of Pokemon on UA-cam.
There are dozens of creators I could have mentioned in this video, but I just couldn't fit them in organically. This video is not a comprehensive list of the most influential creators in Pokemon's UA-cam history, but rather only some of the biggest names for their time.

This was a great breakdown! It's so cool to see something i've been doing for over 10 years laid out like this
So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for taking the time to watch it!
OH MAN HE DID A REACTION
Great video! Awesome to be a part of it
Thanks so much! I honestly didn't expect it to reach any of the creators mentioned, especially that fast. 😅 Glad you enjoyed it!
dude you have been a staple in the pokemon community for years! Love your wifi battles
The goat
Nice video dude! Loved the trip down memory lane.
If there's one thing I can add is that custom thumbnails weren't a thing at first because only YT partners got that feature, and a lot of gaming creators couldn't apply until 2012-ish when MCN's like TheGameStation and Machinima starter signing us on. MCN's in general might be an interesting topic for a future video.
Best of luck with the new Channel! ✌️
Oh man, I totally forgot they were partner-exclusive for a while! The gaming struggle with UA-cam in the early 2010's totally escaped my mind when scripting this. Thank you! MCNs and their reputations would make for a fascinating video for sure.
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks so much for watching!
Hey Mo you were the first UA-camr I ever watched and back in the day your houndour solo run made me believe the calculator on the poketch could legit be used to find any pokemon in the wild
The Munch is the king of Pokemon? He's the first that many of us seen . We salute you
The goat himself
I watched your pokemon x and sun playthrough as a kid thanks for making great content younger me could enjoy
munchingorange, tamashi, and jwittz were my childhood pokemon channels
Thisssss
Then tamashii kept on pity partying herself, getting drunk on camera, and just playing victim when people criticized her lists like “top 10 worst megas” that put sableye at 2nd worst just because it lost prankster
jwittz is so cool 😊
I'm glad to see all of them are still around and living their best lives.
Shoutput to TtarTube with his Extreme Randomizers, they were out of the world, still are
the oras one had me stressed
ttars randomizers had me rolling off my couch all the time. his personality is f*cking peak.
Marriland, MunchingOrange, TheKingNappy, ShadyPenguinn, GameboyLuke, Patterzz, Smallant, Original151, UnitedGamer, I’d say some back in the day and some still to this day had a positive effect on my childhood. Kept me company during the hardest of times. Even tho school was tough on me, these people making content was something to cheer me up to motions beyond.
You remember Wonder Trade Wednesdays???
@@rolltideroll8458 ofc
@@rolltideroll8458 ofc but all the things Nappy did are kinda unforgettable and hard to accept but every now & then I’ll bingewatch a Soul Link
i REALLY think nit mentioning marriland in this video was such a huge misstep
Other notable huge things for the Pokemon Series
Jaden Animations entering the Pokemon Scene for nuzlockes was MASSIVE for Pokemon, as it got a lot people back into Pokemon, you mentioned it briefly but I cannot underestimate how massive that was.
In addition, the VGC community has also shot up, with Wolfe Glick specifically making amazing videos about it
Chugga's pure enthusiasm and the clear effort he puts into all of his Pokemon Letsplays has always been such a joy to watch!
huge inspiration
I grew up with the likes of Marriland, SuperSkarmory, Shofu, Haydunn, PokeCinema, Chuggaconroy, and Munchingorange just to name a few. I already loved Pokémon, but these creators made my love for it stronger.
FFAs and Then we Fights have been huge for over a decade too. Completely different format, but it’s the bread and butter of modern poketubers
Absolutely great video. For the solo challenge era I like to credit pikasprey for kicking it off with his solo ditto video in 2018 that blew up. After that it felt like a huge wave of solo content started to poor in mid 2018-2019.
no mention of shiny hunting or the draft team format?
This is a pretty sick video, but I'd LOVE to see someone do a much more nitty-gritty year by year detailed history of certain game franchises in relation to UA-cam. Interviews, dates of channel creation and hit videos that eventually reached the apex of viewership on the platform. Wonderful basis here.
Lueroi was my go through walkthrough channel back in the day, then superskarmory, and then I really got into nappy, shady, hoodlum scrafty and then when they started the competitive draft league in gen 6 I watched everyone with a team I love this community man
Surprised Pokémon go wasn’t mentioned. That was HUGE on UA-cam.
I PLAY POKEMON GO EVERYDAY, I PLAY POKEMON GO🎵
and the WiFi Battles era. Man, the Pokemon Battle Revolution graphics.
Yeah seems like he's only covering the main RPG format of Pokemon, he also didnt mention the competitive scene even though thats been pretty big over the past decade too
Maybe a sequel
i have crippling brainrot and i can't play games correctly
(fantastic video by the way, insane im included in this)
You're just doing the work that we're all too scared to do 🙏
I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much!!
This was so cool to learn about! The editing videos seeming so simple but didn't have many doing it is so real. I remember watching some ppl like pause a game and taking a break and we just had to sit and wait for their return back in the day lol
real good quality research, feels like a trip down memory lane seeing the older videos get referenced
Haha, I binged all of these creators at some point in my life! It felt so good to talk about them.
Hmmm kinda weird seeing a Pokemon on UA-cam history video without seeing Marriland (edit: and SuperSakrmory) anywhere.
I grew up watching Datai make solo runs as early as 2008 (I think). The first one I watched as a kid was a Starly solo run.
Also, kinda sad some people in the classic era didn't get mentioned here because gaming accounts got suspended in the early UA-cam days.
Nice video, but I feel like the “choose your starter then we battle” is also a big and important part of UA-cam right now since the UA-camrs like Shady and Luke transitioned into those
This is incredible. The video was great but I'm very excited to see where things go in the future. For years, I've wanted to create a series like this, but I never got around to it for one reason or another. I'm excited to see where you go next and hope your channel continues to grow
Chuggaaconroy, while unfortunate the current circumstances, gave something unique to Pokemon lets plays and lets plays in general that I haven't seen others do at all
Honestly, I love this kind of content, this is pretty much exactly the kind of content I plan to start making, just about the history of different things, I guess me finding your content was honestly a good omen, cause now this just makes me wanna get started on my first video right away, even if it definitely won’t be as good as your video!
Great video~!
ShadyPenguinn, Shofu, Jwittz, and Tamashi were so fun to watch. Shady being my favourite because he really did so much good for the community. For example, mentoring aDrive (a guy who wanted to start streaming) who ended up becoming a castor for Pokemon Worlds!
This was a really cool video. It’s nice to see a breakdown of the last 10+ years.
But I did expect to see an exploration of more Pokémon UA-cam niches and trends other than playthroughs and challenges. Battles, Theories, etc.
(Just saw the end of the video!)
It's crazy that it's been fifteen years. I started watching pokemon playthroughs 2012, when they were actually full playthroughs. It's crazy how much time has passed.
This was fascinating to watch! Really just goes to show how much Pokémon has changed over the years. Subscriber earned 100%!
Fantastic video. I wouldn’t be surprised if this went super viral just like the videos mentioned.
I do want to give an honorable mention to what I will call the Walkthrough era. Superskarmory, Lueroi, and Marriland all recording their DS screens with no capture card. Minimal editing. Iconic catchphrases. That was where I started my UA-cam Pokémon journey.
Awesome video dude!! Nice trip down memory lane. But I kind of missed Marriland and Superskarmory in this Video. They created one of the first (if not the first) Pokémon Walkthroughs on UA-cam in 2007 about Pokémon Diamond and Pearl! It was so amazing to see!
Here from Patterrz! Great video! As someone who has been watching Pokémon UA-cam content since 2013 it's cool remembering where everything came from! Gameboy Luke and Patterrz were the UA-camrs that got me into Poketubers!
you should've used Lueroi as an example of classic Pokemon walkthroughs.
I WAS GONNA SAY! HE WAS MY GOAT GLAD SOMEONE MENTIONED HIM
You are cultured
I miss Lueroi. My literally my childhood
Quite a difficult video to make without mentioning the face of Pokémon YT back then in the Gen 6 Golden Age of Pokémon YT era and how he and others would nearly kill a growing community until people like Jaiden, Alpharad, Smallant and Pointcrow stepped up and began the renaissance of Pokemon content creation.
It ain’t pretty history but that’s youtube history.
this channel is gonna blow up, keep pushing bro
I miss Lets Plays on youtube. Not lets plays of fan games or nuzlocke variant/ randomizers. Just genuine Pokemon lets plays. I hope they come back. twitch exists, but not everything is better because its live
Purple Rodri, Mariland & Lueroi were by far my favorite creators.
Don't forget when Michael (MandJTV) actually made great content & not meme reviews.
Crazy where 7+ years has gone
The VGC community especially Ray Rizzo and Wolfey are also changing the landscape of Pokémon in UA-cam.
Also UA-camrs like Lumiose Trainer Zac who make videos on the Pokémon anime are really good.
Not to forget other great UA-camrs like MandJTV and JPR Trainer.
Also love the community Alpharad and Jaiden have created especially in the WILDCARD channel.
Edit: The contributions of guys like PurpleRodri should not be forgotten. Those walkthroughs were a life saver back when I was young.
This was such a fun look back on Pokemon YT over the years. It was honestly a little emotional seeing the kinds of content that inspired me as a kid.
Thus was super good. As a pokemon fan it made me so happy seeing how the poketuber community has evolved
Awesome video! Excited to see what’s to come from your channel!
Hell yeah I can 100% vibe with essay videos, excited to see more from you!!
I love video essays! I've been listening to them for years now, so I thought I'd give it a try!
Your voice is always soothing and informative thank you
Cool video. This is something I genuinely considered making a video on because of how much it has changed overtime and showing what it was like to a newer audience.
Loved this video as someone who's a part of the more lore heavy side of the Pokemon commuity it's nice to see this side of the community
Great video man! Keep up the good work, hoping for some more quality content from you 💪🔥🔥
The only other thing I would have loved to see talked about more is the “then we battle” videos
I think it was QuickGG and ChillinPlays that started it off, and then saw the return of folks like Patterz and Shady Penguin doing as well with pretty decent success
Great video!!
Fantastic video! Can't wait for Patterz to ask to react!
Such a cool video. I just missed all the other Pokemon UA-cam Videos. Pokemon Facts, Lore Speculation Trends, ect. The Video just focuses on Videos where the battle mechanic is the main part
Shoutout to DuncanKneeDeep for Pokémon Roulette that was my jam in Highschool
One part of the history I think was missing was the time near the end of gen 6 and in early gen 7, where all the biggest creators were doing battles against one another in draft league formats. It was easy for an audience to watch one video in a series without feeling like they needed to watch the rest, and it was a great way for a lot of communities to overlap. This era of pokemon youtube died down in early gen 8 after some creators who headed this movement became ostracized from the community, along with gen 8's battle timer. The death of online battles is what allowed for the rise in pokemon VGC content as well as opened the door to revisit older generations in challenge runs.
This video was so strange to watch for me because it essentially described the evolution of the stuff I grew up (and still am) watching. I watched every single PurpleRodri and MuchingOrange playthrough, I was there when Randomizer Nuzlocke popped off, I watched every single ShadyLocke and Soul Link… I still watch TheJwittz’s old videos from time to time, and I was there when the Challenge format began. I’m an avid John Micheal Cup enjoyer, and I was in the Twitch chat when PChal won EK, I still watch draft league every week, and WolfeyVGC is the highlight of my Saturday.
What I’m getting at is, I’m kinda so engrossed in Pokemon and its content that I honestly forgot it was even a thing that would “evolve,” and thinking about it that way is kinda freaky. But cool. Great video!
It's scary when we sit down and realize we've been indulging in a specific form of media for over a decade, but it's also so fascinating to study and reflect on!
Curious to see you grow. Good luck
I feel like a more accurate title would be "The Evolution of Pokemon Let's Plays on UA-cam" just because there's a huge lack of focus on tons of sectors of Pokemon UA-cam, specifically video essays, Top 10s, Theories, etc. I know you touch on this at the end but you say that they didn't have much of a "cultural impact" on the Pokemon community even though Top 10s and especially theories were really huge in the Sun and Moon era which you also say was somewhat dormant when in my view it wasn't (as one of the UA-camrs who kind of found their way during that era). I get it though, we all have different POVs from growing in different parts of the community! As someone who kind of grew up in the Pokemon community, I'll admit I did enjoy this video and loved going down memory lane! This isn't a "hate comment" or anything, just another point of view. Loved the video, great work!
Oh absolutely! This video definitely has its fair share of my personal bias.
I think, in the future, I plan to make a follow-up video about the rest of pokemon's UA-cam history! Thanks for watching!
Amazing video, your video quality doesn’t currently reflect your sub count. Wishing you more success!
As someone who loves history and is majoring it, this is the stuff I love, just looking back at eras where I was young, or even eras in the modern day I wish I was around for (gaming for example).
Excellent job, some of my favorite Pokemon Related UA-camrs are Chugga, JWittz, FalseSwipeGaming, and probably more I’m missing.
Excellent video! Deserves way more views imo
I appreciate that so much! Thank you!
Great video, just saw Patterz made a video on it! Hope the video garners more attention!
This has been a great video detailing the history of pokemon an the different eras of the content it made. I was aomewhat disappointed how shiny hunting pretty much went unmentioned when it has been rising in popularity with ShinyCatherine and Nokimon. Then there is the growing surge of competitive pokemon videos on both formats VGC and Smogon.
This is honestly way better than that similar videos ive seen about this.
your voice sounds like everybody in the thumbnail put together (AMAZING VIDEO ALSO)
Great vid! While I do like the new era's content styles of smallant and alpharad, I can't help but miss the old uncut videos/runs, specifically nate n' dookie's runs, rest in rip (they're alive but the vids are mostly privated and they haven't uploaded in the last year or something ;-; )
Dude Nate and dookie were the bomb back then
Lueroi shouldve been the first person you used as an example. He was literally like the first person to do walkthroughs, goated
Ngl I feel like today its a mix between all the eras with rom hacks and nuzlocks combined but also competitive having a spotlight with youtubers like Pokeaim or MoxieBoosted getting more attention
And the then we battle vids
Great vid hope it gets a lot of attention soon
*video not vid. I do not understand the concept of wanting to shorten a word that is already short enough as it is. I find it ridiculous. However, I do understand wanting to shorten long words.
Love it! Am a VGC teammaker myself, and nothing gets me hyped like seein VGC channels giving my teams a showcase! \o/
Shoutout to the Jwittz for being a huge impact on my general Pokemon knowledge and interest of Pokemon Lore. Also shoutout to
Jrose11 who did one the earliest solo Magikarp challenges to garner popularity.
This is a very well made video. Is this your first channel?
A little late to the video, but I'm going to watch this video, and (try to find time for) any video from you in the future
Cant forget about WolfeGlick bringing the competitive scene to casual audiences! Thats the most inpressive feat ive seen in recent years
Love the video, also it's important to mention the impact Folag0r had in the spanish speaking pokemon comunity, and how he followed and was and still is a pioneer in many of those eras
great video, commenting so that in the future I will be able to as I've been here since the beggining.
The true believer 🙏
Nice video! Excited to see more :)
Marriland, SuperSkarmory, Chuggaa were possibly the most I watched back in the day. Sadly the first formers disappeared and the latter is in mental hiding
Marriland was the goat frfr
Mental hiding? What happened?
@@muriloricarte4526A LOT of girls came out in January and admitted that he was harassing them. He kept trying to make them engage in erotic foot roleplay. This included Masae, who also revealed she hadn't spoken to him in years because of said harassment, and the videos of them together were uploaded without her consent.
But the most condemning thing that was revealed was one girl that he did this with was a 15 year old girl, which he was completely aware of (He was 19 at the time, but he straight up called her, "his pedocrush.")
He's expressed remorse about it, but he's required by doctors to stay off social media for the time being. So he's currently living with his girlfriend.
@@delphoxhoopa7289no he didn't call her her "pedocrush" and the whole document is a little sketchy imo.
The others were valid though but he's trying to better himself.
@delphoxhoopa7289 wow, what a roller-coaster of emotions this story was. I used to watch his channel, but stopped several years ago due to his attitude and other things that did not resonated with me at the time.
Hope he gets better and keep on with his life.
I'm also shocked to hear about Masae, at the time, they seemed to be very close.
Such an amazing video!
Is this channel going to be videos like this, but on different gaming communities?
I love the video❤🔥
The plan is to cover the history of anything on UA-cam. It won't be strictly gaming, but there will be plenty of gaming videos!
@@YTHistoryOfficial ok thats actually great, I was hoping it wouldn't just be gaming lol. I love youtube and its many communities!
Munching Orange and ttar were my two personal favorites. The ttar oras randomizer had me rolling off my couch.
Bro you sound like matpat, great video!
Didn’t realize this was your first video I assumed u were a big channel
Wow this was amazing and i really hope u continue this on other topics. Its atleast an instant subscribe from me
This i can absolutely get behind Nonat! I am excited to see more of this!
The best part of this comments section is watching everyone take a nostalgia trip. There are names I haven't heard here for a loooong time, and checking up on some of them is actually quite refreshing!
Notably, you didn't cover the _dark_ sides of the Pokémon community, and I think that's ultimately for the better. We all know one or two names would've dominated that segment, and not for the right reasons 😅
really cool idea for a channel
Its hard to believe this is first video of a youtube channel
It really sucks that chugga is allegedly a creep when he is such a historic part of lot of fandoms
I watched Chugga for 15 years. He was part of my childhood. It was so disappointing to hear everything.
At least he’s getting some help for it. And he has supportive friends
@@YTHistoryOfficial From what I gathered it was basically just him not having a good enough understanding of social boundaries, and was already something they had already sorted out in private a long time before it went public.
And honestly his response to the whole thing was the most mature apology I have ever seen on the platform, though its such a shame that people will only remember him for that...
not me not knowing this till now 🤧
i didn’t know all the chugga drama until seeing this comment and now i’m extremely sad
that beginning era of pokemon on youtube was my favorite. 10 minute videos of people playing through the games. It wasn't as common to have all these games laying around so seeing what pokemon were in those games through other people's playthroughs was just awesome. Creators like nappy, shadypenguinn, haydunn. they all made me love with pokemon again
I'm not too fond of the current era of pokemon on youtube. Just hyper specific rules modifying the game to oblivion and losing track of what is the actual pokemon games.
Nice video! it was nice to think about this
I do love how a major Nuzlocker and Soul Link UA-camr wasn’t mentioned (I also understand why)
I kinda understood why as well, but I'm wondering why he didnt mention him when he mentioned someone else from a historical standpoint.
As terrible as the situation was, cant deny the influence at the time.
i feel like your channel is about to blow up
Around the release of Sun and Moon you gotta remember how big Pokemon Go was and how much attention it was still getting around that time.
Wait, so the Shiny Hunting community is micro? From Absol's movies where he films himself over months, or sometimes years, to other shiny hunter's videos of shiny races, I thought that was also really popular. Huh
As a fan of pokemon videos since the beginning I thought this was a great video.
I would address that you missed the era of competitive battle that dominated Pokemon UA-cam from gen 5-6 as their own era.
Then the current then we fight era that is the separation between the ‘normie’ UA-camrs like PointCrow/JaidenAnimations, the extreme Nuzlockers like Pokemon Challenges, and the 2nd generation PokeTubers like ShadyPenguinn or Patterz
Very insteresting video nonat, learn quite a lot!
I'm happy to be able to teach you! ❤️
I hope this colab channel stays active for a bit.
I know he’s under some investigations as well, but feel like PurpleRodri needs a mention. He had a huge impact on my childhood with his let’s plays
it went from playthrues animated parodies and theories to: same but shorten up (for the most part) and fan games and challenges and music and...
Great video! Please cover the following in a part 2 😅
A lot was missed -
Papasea, Jwittz, Gnoggin, Mandjtv, dobbs who dive deep into lore and pokemon.
Pokemon artists like Truegreen7, Pen palladin
Pokemon music channels
Pokemon tcg and card pull community
PokemonGo community
Pokemon Unite community
Pokemon parody videos from ergoraptor, smosh, animetoons
Pokemon showdown community
AND HOW DID YOU MISS MY BOY POKEMON RUSTY from Dorkly!!
Pardon me just screenshotting this comment for later... ❤️
@@YTHistoryOfficialexcited!!
I missed Pokemon news (and leak/speculation) community like adrive, austinjohnplays (
Pokemon playthrough explanation/ helper videos like adrive and austinjohnplays
@@YTHistoryOfficial I like to note that the early 2010's were really a significant time for Pokemon fact videos like those done by the Jwittz and others since a lot of info wasnt really widely known.
Awesome video man I hope to see similar content to this, maybe Minecraft or those terrible mobile games that dominated the landscape. Anyways keep it up!
Great vid! But I gotta say, Ttar the GOAT
One of my favorite old creators was Hardytecyoyo hope he’s well
I love the new video on your new channel. As some constructive criticism, maybe be slightly more specific with your title. For example, in this first video, you titled it "The Evolution of Pokémon on UA-cam". When I see this specific title, my expectations are that you'll be talking about ALL of Pokémon YT stuff. Like people who made content on the TCG like TheJWittz, or Theory/Educational videos like the ones made by MatPat and Lockstin. Or any other Pokémon stuff, like the anime or mangas. If you're only going to focus on the video games, that's great, I did really like this video, but maybe title it "The Evolution of Pokémon Games on UA-cam" to properly set expectations. Instead of just having a small blurb at the end.
I would also add that the buildup to Sun and Moon leaks/reveals and pokemon go were a necessary part in pokemon yt history that was overlooked
So happy to see Big League MDB getting the attention he deserves 😁
MunchingOrange was the goat. He still is but. Like he's honestly the Goat bro 😭
