Why it worked

The video leverages a universally known piece of pop culture (Pikachu's color) to create a relatable and humorous scenario of someone's ignorance, which is amplified by the creator's exaggerated reaction.

Summary

A person reacts to a clip from a game show where a contestant is asked the color of Pikachu and struggles to answer. The reaction video creator expresses disbelief that someone wouldn't know such a basic fact about a popular character.

Structure

1Contestant asked color of Pikachu
2Contestant doesn't know the answer

6Creator explains why it's obvious

Product placement

Pikachu: ACTS - it is the subject of a trivia question. Removing it would change the video's premise. Pokemon: ACTS - it is the franchise Pikachu belongs to, providing context for the question. Removing it would make the question less clear. Skype: APPEARS - it is the platform used for the expert call. Removing it would not change the video's core content.

Transcript

Pikachu is primarily what color? Red, yellow, green, blue. I don't know any of these. I'd like to go ahead and ask the experts. It's B, it's yellow. There's no question in your mind. You're you're sure. Don't ask me again. I can't blame dude for having that reaction. I don't even watch Pokemon. I'm not a fan of Pokemon at all, but even I know the color of Pikachu. This dude seriously did not know the color of the main character of the Pokemon franchise. This is literally similar to somebody asking you the color of SpongeBob and you don't know the color of SpongeBob. You don't even need to watch SpongeBob to know that SpongeBob is yellow. When he said don't ask me again, he said that was so much rage in his voice because this dude really try to ask him, are you sure? The hell do you mean? Are you sure? Yes. Pikachu is by far a top 10 main cartoon character in cartoon history. So the fact that this man struggled to answer that question, the fact that he did not know that the face of Pokemon was yellow, it's actually atrocious.
