As a 30 year old that grew up with pokemon and now can afford to fulfill the dreams of collecting that I wasn't able to as kid, I don't like a lot of the current pokemon content creators. I just like the facts and educated opinions. I don't need the music, the flashing colors and images, the overtop characters, and the in your face styles. This is the content I like, the input from a fellow collector/investor that seems like your average has a day job and likes pokemon as a hobby guy.
Wholeheartedly agree. I’m in my 30’s and I like the kind of content that is calm and I can listen to interesting information. Keep up the good work PokeOz!
Your realistic down to earth style without the over dramatic artificial bullcrap is what I love about this channel. Keep up the great work Michael, you’re getting closer to that Supra mate👍
I can definitely see this channel hitting 100K in the future. I’m pretty new to the game and to have the opportunity to learn 25 years of knowledge while I’m working around the house is to me priceless. Thanks mate
You're content is amazing mate! been seen it for a while, it's educative, chilling and fun! As so many others had mentioned, having someone just talking about pokemon without getting hype every 5 secs it's great! Keep on with the great videos.
Awesome to see another Aussie content creator doing well, especially in the competitive Pokemon niche. I appreciate the down to earth and informative content. Those numbers are pretty impressive for your first 6 months too! The first quarter is usually slow with ad revenue, but picks up after that. I reckon your channel is going to take off like a rocket this year👍
Such an interesting journey and shows a different side you don’t see anyone showing that stuff And like oz said if you believe in the person you are more likely to watch Very inspirational pal no one like you in the space in the UK Congrats on the growth man you deserve it
I truly appreciate your approach man - it resonates with me (and with many others, looking at the comments). There's no shilling of questionable mystery packs, no unnecessary whooping, no pulling daft faces on your thumbnails. Just high quality, informative content delivered in an intelligent, concise & laid-back manner. Thanks for sharing this info on your channel journey so far - it's encouraging to see your authenticity being rewarded. Keep playing to your strengths mate - the sky's the limit for this channel I reckon! 👍👍👍
Love the transparency here mate. Not something that's for me, but love the insight. And glad that supporting the channel is actually providing something for you. Fingers crossed the growth continues, you deserve it.
Dude, that’s actually insane earnings for the size of your channel. Really awesome to see. Cheers to your success so far, I hope it only increases from here!
Yeah no doubt overall you are the best pokemon creator as you are an enjoyable person to watch. The way you talk, your voice, the way you stay calm and don’t get loud and over the top, you just seem like a very likable guy all around. Everyone else is so dramatic and obnoxious. What people are craving are just genuine people and characters these days. People are starved for it.
Gr8 video mate. I love how open you are about it all! I’ve said before , I was watching you a lot as I got the courage to start my channel now. Would love to see a video about how you went about members community and choosing perks and all that as well. Congratz on all the success! And the polo isn’t that bad bruz haha
Great content and I appreciate the honesty! I, for one, think that anyone lucky enough to stumble upon the channel will be a lifelong sub and member of the community! You have something golden here m8, no unnecessary sparkles - just pure, honest conversation and great advice! Love to see it.
The best advice often is a result from your own mistakes made and lessons learned and provides value to your viewers by helping them avoid those mistakes in the first place, hence the success of your top video. I think the massive uptick during Nov. - Dec. is from the holiday season and increased spending habits of the average Pokémon card consumer. It could be advantageous to plan ahead a burst of ripper content to take advantage of that trend for this next year and pair with Google Ads advertising to capture new viewers. Happy to share insight on that platform if desired! Going back to watch all of the old videos 5 times and nudge the algorithm in Michael’s favor 😂
Trust me you are appreciated for being a real human towards your audience. The Pokemon content creation sphere is overwhelmingly predatory on their viewers. Advocating for people to buy the singles / sealed product that they are wanting to rise and then drop their stock. It's all pretty shameless. You are genuine, helpful, and overall you've helped me have a healthier outlook on what collecting is about.
Interesting info! For some reason I didn't think videos revealing YT income were permitted on the platform. I'm considering doing YT down the line for my miniature painting hobby and this was helpful
@pokeoz91 just a bit! Eventually, I do yes, but I desperately need to make the leap to long form content. To get that watch time from shorts is almost impossible. 😟
This is the exact video I needed right now. I have been wanting to start a basketball channel and always wondered what expectations to set for myself and this video was perfect. Love the content!
I absolutely love this for you. I've been a subscriber of yours since way before your monetization. I really appreciate your logic and candor. Would you consider a video showing your filming and editing gear? (Speaking as an aspiring content creator someday?) 😊
Thanks for the reply! I've tried to film a few times from my phone, but keep hitting storage limits and/or tech issues. Clearly a large camera isn't necessary yet, but curious as to your method. Keep it up!
Great video. It's the honesty snd your approach on this are the predominant reasons why people watch your channel. I appreciate the effort and the thoughts you put in to make your videos. It is amazing how you continually put out good content and having to think of things we continually would like to watch. I liken your videos as a series that has distinctive content, which allows us to learn and enjoy the information / hobby. The best comment I can give you is that I hope the series does not ever reach to a finale.
As I’m sure you know I really like your approach - the way you communicate with the viewers is honest, funny and helpful. I wish you continued success. I’ll definitely keep watching.
Michael, I just want to say that you are a true inspiration, dude. Seriously. Thank you for your transparency. Keep making your honest, helpful content. We need more dudes like you out there.
great vid! I find my videos tank the first 2 days then theyll start getting like 200 view and hour on day 3 before dropping off. very strange how youtube tries to figure out what audience to give the videos too before the impressions start the get high click through rates. maybe cause my channel is young and small but interesting to see where youre at with 10k vs my 200!
It’s just great content mate. You put in the effort, you spread your words, ideas and thoughts about a succesfull investing theory with the rest of the world. It’s all earned! Keep up the good work!
I know Pokémon is your bread & butter, but could you make a video about the One Piece TGC explosion? Maybe why it happened, how it's going & the outlook for the future? It was recently announced that they would be reprinting sets & it'd be interesting to speculate on what could possibly happen. It could lower price, but it also could do nothing.

Appreciate the feedback mate, thankyou!
Agree. Poketubers, in general, are some of the most obnoxious youtubers out there. This channel is better than most.
Wholeheartedly agree. I’m in my 30’s and I like the kind of content that is calm and I can listen to interesting information. Keep up the good work PokeOz!
this style of content is so much better, without all the fake explosive energy and constant yelling with dubstep playing in the backround.
Haha I get what you're saying man!
Would also like to mention the over the top thumbnails with a facial expression that no person makes on a regular basis
Your realistic down to earth style without the over dramatic artificial bullcrap is what I love about this channel.
Keep up the great work Michael, you’re getting closer to that Supra mate👍
I appreciate that! About a tenth of the way 😅
I can definitely see this channel hitting 100K in the future. I’m pretty new to the game and to have the opportunity to learn 25 years of knowledge while I’m working around the house is to me priceless. Thanks mate
Welcome mate, let's hope so!

Will do mate, thankyou!

So this guys shares his revenue, 100% transparent...no smoke and mirrors. He's honest about his motives and passion.
Thanks man!
Decent money toward that supra goal! Good luck man you’re killing it!
Slow grind but hopefully it picks up! 👌

Much appreciated. Always fun to earn a bit of money from your hobby!
That’s a good looking graph! Keep it up! 👍
Thanks, will do! Lots of work still to do, though!

@@pokeoz91 Are you born in 91 as well? December? Just curious haha.
The most informative Pokemon channel out there
Thanks mate!

Appreciate the quality, transparent content!
You're welcome!
I appreciate the transparency! I’ve always been curious about this myself and this was very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
Love your transparency, mate. 👍...Them damn watch hours are the bain of my existence!
It's hard, hey! You trying to get monetized?
@pokeoz91 just a bit! Eventually, I do yes, but I desperately need to make the leap to long form content. To get that watch time from shorts is almost impossible. 😟
@CatsnCoasters that's it! I don't think shorts count towards watch hours from memory. But yeah, get into it mate 👌
Awesome video. Good content.
Much appreciated!
This is the exact video I needed right now. I have been wanting to start a basketball channel and always wondered what expectations to set for myself and this video was perfect.
Love the content!
Glad I could help!
Hope you had a good Aussie day. Interesting look into the inside of channel. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, you too! 👌
I absolutely love this for you. I've been a subscriber of yours since way before your monetization. I really appreciate your logic and candor. Would you consider a video showing your filming and editing gear? (Speaking as an aspiring content creator someday?) 😊
Thanks heaps, mate. My tech skills aren't great at all. I film on my mobile, the newest Samsung and just edit on that 😅
Thanks for the reply! I've tried to film a few times from my phone, but keep hitting storage limits and/or tech issues. Clearly a large camera isn't necessary yet, but curious as to your method. Keep it up!
Kudos to you and thanks for the transparency
Any time!
Will be interesting to see how much this video makes you next month, my money is it will be the next leader!! 🤩
Let's hope so man!
I enjoy hearing your commentary on the pokemon infesting space,
Thanks mate!
Very informative, you deserve a lot more subscribers
Thanks heaps!

Hey Rob, thanks heaps mate. I just saw you've moved over to CZcams, I'm sure you'll do great!

That's really interesting mate! I wish mine would re take off after 2 days 😅
You're my favorite channel, Michael. Thank you for all the amazing content!
You're welcome mate 👌
Great video!
Thanks mate!
@@pokeoz91 CZcams definitely is a grind but you are currently my favorite Pokemon CZcamsr! Keep up the good work!
Great content and the most helpful concepts and strategies to investing I have been able to find.
Glad you like them!
Congrats on your success so far!
Thank you so much!!
Gonna be honest this is favourite vid showing how YT works 👌🏼
Thanks mate!
It’s just great content mate. You put in the effort, you spread your words, ideas and thoughts about a succesfull investing theory with the rest of the world. It’s all earned! Keep up the good work!
I appreciate that! Thankyou mate!
This video will take off
Let's hope so mate!
Love this one. Can you tells us about the kit you use to make this content, mic, camera and software. could be a follow up video.
I will mate, for sure+
W video. Great job
Glad you enjoyed it!

It was recently announced that they would be reprinting sets & it'd be interesting to speculate on what could possibly happen. It could lower price, but it also could do nothing.
I remember I did a video on DBZ SCORE CCG and it didn't go well. But One Piece is the flavour at the moment so it could do well!
Hey man, keep up the great videos! Was just wondering, would you recommend 151 jp booster boxes or chilling reign ones?
I think both will have good years. But I see Japanese 151 being an absolute banger in the long term!
@@pokeoz91 i have my data telling me that Jap 151 will sit right behind eevee heroes(longterm hold). Your thoughts?
Cheers mates!
Cheers!
That's a low mileage Mk4 Supra-TT money! =) someday...
A lot of work to do to get there but it's a tenth of the way there 😅
The 🐐
Haha thanks!
I have a GR Supra and collect cards. 😅
That's so good man!
Nice nice
Thanks!
I don't think I make enough content to make money on here. I'm a free market type person 😅
Never too late to start 😎
I heard January is tough to make money from CZcams and videos don't do so good
Oh really? I wonder why that is? 🤔
you work at toyota?
Sure do mate!
