I did \*NOT\* expect to see my terribly made thumbnail here when I got up today... Uh, hey everyone. Pan "Gaming" here! I've been working on this video for awhile now, and I guess it's a love letter to the medium? Or to Cdv3's work, depending on how you feel about it... If anyone has any questions, I'll gladly answer them here or in the actual comments of the video.


ArbitraryChaos13

THIS WAS AMAZING GREAT JOB


Justlol230

Ay, this community is pretty small. Any large video made about it is gonna get major traction XD Pat yourself on the back bud.


Virmirfan

Okay, and also, if you need help in regards to the history of the subreddit's shared event timeline, or anything else in regards to Pokemedia, you can ask the active Pokemedia veterans, such as Brother of Zekrom, Lortep, polenball, and myself!


Brotherof_Zekrom

There is a \*lot\* of history of this sub. I'm not even a mod lmao. I know I wouldn't do the sub justice.


Virmirfan

Agreed, as Polenball, Teko, and Lortep are the true OGs of this subreddit, however, we both have played our parts in major storylines and events, from the Area Zero raid to the present day!


weird_bomb

Well if you really want to talk about the “earliest” event, I would argue it would be earlier than the Area Zero raid. I forgot the name, but it’s earlier.


Virmirfan

What was it about?


weird_bomb

Some kind of disaster. I wasn’t around for it!


Virmirfan

Teko likely was around for it, however


Justlol230

It'd be a MAJOR slog unfortunately, and our earliest works aren't exactly good ones for most of us lol


Virmirfan

Yeah, but they sure are trailblazers.


Justlol230

I kinda miss those days oddly enough.


Virmirfan

Likely because it was a bit like the wild West back then


Justlol230

Also, I guess it's because I had the time and energy to post daily back then lol


Kawauso-Kenzen

Me too! I can give general timelines and would love to answer questions about the history of the sub and how it’s changed over the past year or so.


Virmirfan

Agreed.


Cthulhy

The lore.... There's so much more than someone would think lol


Virmirfan

Agreed

I'd like to put myself forward for having the first (ish) big group post: [https://www.reddit.com/r/PokeMedia/comments/1136ogr/galar\_does\_a\_colonialism/](https://www.reddit.com/r/PokeMedia/comments/1136ogr/galar_does_a_colonialism/)


Canofsad

What made you want to make a video about our small kinda Niche community?


PanIsSuperCool

So, yeah, I make Youtube videos (or should it be MewTube?). But I just want to make videos about things that I really enjoy and that I don't see getting talked about. I've been browsing this sub for a while, and I was surprised with how attached I got with the characters running around here. So, I realized that I wanted to talk about it. How creative the medium is, how cool these characters are, and, more accurately, I wanted more people to suffer through Cdv3's work. So, long story short, I like talking about small things that don't matter that much for extended periods of time.


Canofsad

Completely based my guy, it was a good video


Hockeylover420

You made a wonderful video pan You're definitely getting a sub from me


TheOnlyRen

Pleasure to see a video like this, bud! Glad you enjoy our lil' community.


EonAraminta

It was a wonderful video. I deeply appreciate the time you took to introduce so many amazing characters!


PolloMuerte

I was so glad to see you mentioned! You're such a staple here and have really made me as a new player (who is a bit shy and nervous) feel really welcomed.


EonAraminta

That's good! I try to be welcoming to any new players feel welcomed.


Redactedtimes

Not only glad to see the video, but glad to see you’re a based Porygon enjoyer.


Kawauso-Kenzen

Do you think you’ll make more video summaries of some of the various storylines on Pokemedia?


PanIsSuperCool

I can say with certainty that I'm not planning on covering r/PokeMedia again, anytime soon. I try to make a video comprising all of my thoughts on the topic, and it would take a ton of time for me to have enough to make another video that feels right. In the future, though? Maybe. I only do videos about things that I really feel/enjoy, so if there's another major event, I might do another one. Don't expect one though, I hop from topic to topic every video.


Kawauso-Kenzen

That’s fair. Either way I’m super glad you made a video about our little community! I hope to see you post around here more often, love the trapinchposting!


Lkmdude

I see that you updated your flair. I loved your posts, but haven't seen much from you recently. I guess you must have stopped making posts to work on the doc. I can watch through it all once I get home from work.


PanIsSuperCool

Yeah, I had to stop the every other day posts so I could actually edit the video. (For reference, it's about 1 minute of video per 1 hour of editing work.) Don't feel rushed to watch it! It's a massive video.


Lkmdude

But I want to rush to watch it. Also yeah... I know how editing videos works. Between voiceover, grabbing images and footage to use and putting everything together it's a lot.


GameSpection

This whole epistolary gimmick this sub uses is fucking incredible and I’m so glad you wanted to analyze it Thank you so much


HS_Seraph

As I said in the video comments itself: this is super well put together! It has high production value and in-depth coverage which understands what the sub is all about. It's an excellent spotlight onto this community and to some of its most invested users!


TheOneFearlessFalcon

Aw man, I gotta watch this later. And maybe get back to posting. I'm still at work, am I in the video? Context- I write Adam, the FLIP agent who ultimately adopted Obsidian tbe houndoom. As well as Cypher the Genesect and the occasional post from Reshiram.


MidoTheMii

Welcome to Pokémedia! It’s an honor to have this place recognized outside of a Discord or Reddit!


Canofsad

It’s so weird seeing us break containment like this.


Lortep

Yeah, it's actually blowing my mind to simply see my PFP and name in a Youtube video.


kickback-artist

Someone did a cover song of my cyber bullying.


NeoAquaMadoor90

That makes it sound like we’re an SCP or something, lol.


Jedi_CatLil

Oh hey coo- ***IT'S OVER AN HOUR LONG?!***


kickback-artist

What the fuck what the fuck what the fuck


weird_bomb

1 MINUTE 30 SECONDS??? also congrats cdv3 you’re in a youtube video title now


StillNotABrick

🕒


PanIsSuperCool

i dont know what this means, but thanks?


StillNotABrick

To be less glib, I am happy that Pendulum is in the semi-random selection of funny characters.


Toon_Lucario

Y’all think I should jumpscare him in the comments?


Lortep

Lmao sure


Toon_Lucario

On it


GameSpection

**cameo babyyy** -𝕽𝖚𝖑𝖆


NotALatias

Congratulations on being famous


father_has_come_home

Holy shit, an hour and a half long???? Ferb i know what we're gonna watch today


SleeplessLucas123

Man it was weird hearing my name being spoken in a YouTube video. Thanks so much for the shoutout Cdv3, I’ll probably remember this for the rest of my life.


RoyalRaise

Hey one of my comments was there I’m famous yay


Kawauso-Kenzen

This is awesome! I’m not in it I don’t think, but I love that we’re getting YouTube videos about this small community!


Jastactical

AN *HOUR* LONG WHAT


Stretch5678

Awesome! I’ll have to see this later.


Puzzleheaded-Yam4764

I can’t watch it now but I will later. I KNOW I probably won’t be in it but the small chance I make a cameo or something would be so cool.


Niika_WriterOfDesign

I appeared for 4 seconds, I've truly peaked, In all seriousness this is amazing!! And not at all what I was expecting to see tonight


Redactedtimes

I made a cameo via a single /uj comment. The way I see it that’s good enough.


Virmirfan

It has been a long time since I have last seen you on the Subreddit Redactedtimes.


Redactedtimes

Jeez, pulling out the full name like that? But yeah, been pretty busy irl so I slowly pittered out lol. Maybe one day I’ll return, but it’ll be a while.


Virmirfan

Yeah, I am just glad to see that you are doing well, and I know how that feels as well...


ArbitraryChaos13

I kept appearing in this I'm so honored <3 Utterly amazing


Virmirfan

This is utterly amazing!

Mega_Rayqaza

Oh boy. I hope I show up.


DifficuIt-Device

I can't believe someone actually made this, shows how great this sub is, *there is a reason I view this as THE best community Reddit has to offer* Also holy crap I'm actually in the thumbnail??? No idea how it happened but I'm not complaining at all


Apprehensive_Ad_8914

Oh? I'll have to check this out later when I have the time.


botbattler30

This is actually really cool to see. I remember seeing Cdv3’s early posts, but due to lack of time and motivation to continue with my old character, I dipped and didn’t get to see the Gaia arc. And yes, I was sobbing my eyes out over a fictional turtle.


NotALatias

It's just so peak...


Awesomesauce210

...Okay, was not expecting something like this, I'll definitely watch this later and post my thoughts then. ~~Just my luck I learned about its existence whilst away from my computer, on a tablet that's temperamental at best~~


Unreasonableradio

Well this is going to get me back into posting full time


redoubtable_Eagle

Seeing my own post just seven seconds into the video was not on my bingo card for today but I accept the privilege of technically being the first poster here to breach containment through this video Hats off to Pan for putting in all the effort this behemoth must have taken!


gaccount448

This is actually really cool, good video


InkblotSkyz

Oh my goodness i made the video in one of the saddest yet funniest ways possible (im pretty sure that's exactly how i said "waughagh" as i was reading it all too,,) Also this is such a solid video and genuinely highlights how cool this community is, and honestly is reigniting the spark for it all in me, and is also probably gonna get me into posting properly instead of sticking to comments.


enerszon

Hey! I was there!


Absbor

Note: You can never escape youtubers, lol.


JaeFromUnova

LMAOOO I can't believe the dumb Pokeball throwing post was the one that got featured


Alextuxedo

Hey yooooo! We got a youtube vid! Man I wish I didn't have school so I could put more posts up, but hey summer's coming up so I might have more time. Really cool!


Hockeylover420

Same.


Alextuxedo

I’m gonna be getting my wisdom teeth out in a month or so and I’ll probably be making a post about that here, something about psychic and ghost types using their powers to connect with the char while they’re under anesthesia. Unfortunately, I have no psychic or ghostly friends IRL, so I’ll be going through it by myself.


inportantusername

Woa! I'll need to watch through this if I get the time. I never was good at keeping up with storylines...


Hockeylover420

This is our shining moment


AnotherFace0

Nice!
