I would suggest giving challenges a go. They're fun to play and watch and can make the games much more unpredictable.

Well, what kind of Poketuber are you? There's a big difference between a battler, a reviewer and a let's-player. I'd suggest showing off a lot of ROM hacks in a review or playthrough, as people that watch Pokemon channels have usually already played the main games. You can find plenty right here in Pokecommunity, actually. For battle videos, try to show off something unique to catch the audience's interest instead of just uploading any old win. Themes or combo videos seem to do well.

I suggest taking a look at some popular YouTube channels for ideas if you haven't already. However, make sure you're doing your own thing, not someone else's. The important thing is to upload stuff that you enjoy doing, or you'll end up boring yourself instead!

Mainstream stuff works; challenges, playthroughs, battles, walkthroughs (detailled and informed playthroughs), reviews, speculation videos, top tens, etc. They all are found on a lot of channels, because people like watching that stuff. More importantly: that's what the masses like to watch.

It's kind of a blessing and a curse at the same time. You might attract more viewers if you include this content into your channel, at the same time there's already tons of other people doing the same thing, which means that your channel might not become that much more popular afterall. Optimum would be if you found a niche that's still unexplored, something the others haven't done, yet. However, that's going to be difficult and not everyone is able to spot those niches, hence why they go for the mainstream.

It all depends on where you want to go with your channel. If you want to grow substantially larger, then you might need to find niches, but if you just want more content, then choose one of the things I mentioned in my first paragraph.

Thanks for the replies, guys! Really appreciate it.
I do a lot of opening of pokemon products such as booster packs, boxes etc. I also do top 10's. I haven't done any gameplay as of yet, but i want to get into that.
I want to add a special weekly show to my schedule, that i put some extra work into!

Examples:
Mail Monday
Deck Spec Tuesday
