MandJTV Pokevids

MandJTV Pokevids is a YouTube Channel focusing on Pokémon created by Michael Groth. It currently has over 1.3 million subscribers and that number continues to increase. This YouTube Channel is, so far, Michael's most successful and popular channel.

Origins
Michael Groth have always liked Pokémon since his childhood. He first discovered it after coming across the anime on television one day after school. The anime grabbed Michael's interest, which went further after he found out about the video games and began playing them himself. Michael would love Pokémon even as it became less popular in his school. His favorite Pokémon is Sceptile and Vicavolt (Braylon Thompson wrote this)

Michael had creativity and imagination growing up. Eventually, his creativity would go into YouTube. One summer, him and his brother Justin were bored and decided to make videos. Their inspiration to create YouTube videos were inspired by other famous YouTubers at his time, such as NigaHiga and Fred. He and Justin started MandJTV, which is short for Michaels and Justin TV. Although his early videos were far less popular than his later Pokémon videos, Michael and Justin kept it up because it was fun to them and some of their videos made their mom laugh.

Later, Michael's YouTube videos expanded to Pokémon, something big from his childhood. After uploading the video How Old is Ash Ketchum, however, it got a million views during his first college semester at Rice University. Michael then switched to only making Pokémon videos, realizing that those were more popular. Also, his old videos got tiring to make while Pokémon videos were more fun for him to make.

Concept
The catchphrase Michael uses for every video is "Greetings Pokefans! Michael here and today I'm…". Michael says this at the start of all videos to introduce himself and what the video is about. He would usually appear wearing his signature baseball cap backwards.

When a video finishes, Michael would say "Until next time, pokefans. Gotta catch em' all."
