The official Pok\u00e9mon Singapore YouTube channel confirms this:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Due to inaccuracy in the footage, we corrected the video and reuploaded it.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The original Pok\u00e9mon Unite presentation video &#8211; which racked up more than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/news\/2020\/06\/the_pokemon_unite_presentation_has_already_been_disliked_150000_times\">150,000 dislikes in less than a day<\/a> &#8211; has now also been <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0meaWFXuTzc&amp;feature=youtu.be\">privatised<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>To put things in perspective, the latest reveal by The Pok\u00e9mon Company managed to outdo Nintendo&#8217;s E3 2015 announcement &#8211; <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nintendolife.com\/games\/3ds\/metroid_prime_federation_force\">Metroid Prime: Federation Force<\/a><\/strong> for the 3DS, which has over 90,000 dislikes to date.<\/p>\n<p>As you can imagine, The Pok\u00e9mon Company&#8217;s decision to re-upload all of its videos related to Pok\u00e9mon Unite has only enraged some fans. Yet again, the amount of &#8216;Dislikes&#8217; on each of these videos is quickly outpacing the number &#8216;Likes&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s one of the many comments underneath the re-uploads:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCYkaUjcYKegzz6XOSs-dXTQ\">V\u00edctor Vera22<\/a> We don&#8217;t like what The Pokemon Company has become, how would you understand? Doing this, deleting the old videos and reuploading them only demonstrates that you don&#8217;t care about fans, you just care about image. It&#8217;s sad.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While many Pok\u00e9mon fans believe The Pokemon Company did this because it is worried about its &#8220;image&#8221;, Serebii.net webmaster Joe Merrick thinks if it was that concerned about fan reception to Unite, it would take the following action:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>If they wanted to remove dislikes, they&#8217;d just disable them<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>What are your own thoughts about all of this?
