The man(child/wolf) himself
Welcome back, wolf pack
Verlisify is a furry YouTuber who's videos (and life) revolve around Pokemon, or more specifically, complaining about other people in the pokemon community. Verlisify, like many other lolcows, seems to have a specific list of actions that completely send him over the edge, yet partakes in many of these actions himself.
Many may wonder why Verlis gets so up in arms about such trivial matters. The truth is, he feels like he is better than everybody, and when he gets outplayed in any area, whether that be at the game, or on youtube, he throws a tantrum and accuses whoever outdid him of not having any integrity. While he has stated in the past that he had a strategy that would win him the world championship, he struggled through an unofficial pax tournament getting a 0-4 win/lose ratio and claims that the only reason that he lost was that "his opponent stalled him". In fact, this ticked him off so much that he made a video crying about how a "corrupt judge" called the loss, and still references this moment in his videos to this day.
What really makes Verlis is that he cherry picks who can associate with him, and claims that the reason people hate him is "lies and rumors", both of which are shown in this Reddit post made by him here. He never learns from his mistakes and refuses to act rationally. He actually has had several embarrassing chimp-outs as a result of his shitty personality.

Click-bait
One of Verlis' more vocal personal vendettas is his crusade against click-bait. While most YouTubers either don't use clickbait and don't care, or use clickbait and don't care, Verlis seems to be an odd case of someone who is vehemently against click-bait to the point of aggravation, yet plasters it across all of his videos. In the (fairly recent) past, he actually made a video attacking someone for making a video on the new Pokemon games coming out in November. His reasoning for the attack is "the person used Pokemon in the title to many times to exploit YouTube's search algorithm and get more views". Which is ironic, as THE VIDEO ITSELF that he posted to complain is a generic, all-caps click-bait title.

He also made a tweet about how insulting Smogon (This will be explained later) "Prints Money".

"Cheating"
For those who don't play Pokemon, there is a very mild controversy in the Pokemon community of what should be considered cheating. In the game itself, each Pokemon has a slew of values that can effect their stats in battle, and while avoiding getting too technical, to get all of these values just right it can literally take weeks to breed or capture the perfect Pokemon for online or competitive play. To save a lot of time, people with lives generate perfect parent Pokemon to breed worthwhile Pokemon for battle in a matter of an hour or so. To put this into perspective, its like using a script to earn you a weapon in a first person shooter that everybody will just be using against you in multiplayer anyway. Despite the fact that most people who do this don't use it to use anything they couldn't use otherwise, Verlis hates generated pokemon, even to the point of attacking other YouTubers who openly gen them for other people's entertainment. His ego is actually big enough to the point where he has made videos crying about the world champions of the official Pokemon tournaments multiple times, despite the fact that the organizers didn't consider them to be cheating.

"Unsportsman-like conduct"
Verlis feels that to play the game, everybody must conform to his version of the way that the game should be played. Whenever somebody can't win by knocking out their opponent's team, they might try to stay alive as long as they can, and when they do, Verlis cries "STALLER". He actually goes as far as ripping into extremely high level players because they won the game by stalling their opponents when there was nothing else that could be done.

Smogon
Smogon is a fan run competitive Pokemon site. The basis of Smogon is that since there are so many Pokemon (721 currently including dozens of alternate forms and well over a hundred more to come in the upcoming game), it might be hard to balance such a game with so much diversity. Smogon, based on statistics and use, divides the majority of commonly used Pokemon up into a tier list to allow less powerful ones to see more use in lower tiers. Its essentially extending the metagame to allow for more diversity and intelligent play, rather than people using the same 5 overpowered monsters over and over again. Despite the fact that Smogon isn't offical, and it is completely up to the player whatever rule set they want to use, Verlis has a stick up his ass about it, with the reasoning "Its not official". In fact, in late 2013 he was so "fired up" about it that he wore a poorly made fire Pokemon hoodie and whined about it on camera for ten minutes straight. Another important thing to note is that even within Smogon's ruleset there are no Pokemon that are banned outright; they are just moved a tier higher to prevent them from showing up everywhere in lower tiers. In a poorly made video uploaded in 2015, Verlis shares his (poorly formed) thoughts on Smogon moving a commonly used Pokemon a tier higher than it used to be. In the video, and its title, Verlis claims that Smogon "banned" this particular Pokemon, and states that "because you can counter it with specific Pokemon and movesets, it should not have been banned". The problem with this logic being that nobody wants nor can possibly have a counter for every overpowered Pokemon in the game as there are so many.

MY GIRLFRIEND BROKE UP WITH ME BECAUSE OF SMOGON
I honestly could waste my time explaining how stupid and eccentric of a claim this is, saying that he is avoiding admitting that he is a piece of shit that blames his problems on the world, but just watch this video.

Verlis Vs. Hoodlumscrafty
An example of how seriously Hoodlumscrafty took Verlis after the drama went down
Hoodlumscrafty is an active member in the Pokemon community and makes videos ranging from gameplay commentary to custom formats that he and his friends mess around in. As of September 9th, 2016, both Verlisify and Hoodlumscrafty have about the same number of subscribers (~255k each). After years of Verlisify's toxicity, Hoodlum finally decided it was time to upload a video rising many concerns they had about Verlis and his behavior in mid 2016. They addressed the way he blocks anybody that disagrees with him, attacks other YouTuber's from having ads on their videos (even though he has ads as well), how he stole a custom format and artwork made by Hoodlum for his own use, how he doesn't cite people who give him strategies properly, how he frequently lies to his fans, and much more. Verlis responded by uploading yet another poorly thought out video accusing them of lying, and actually claims claims that him putting ads on his stolen content was not considered monetizing (happens around the 17 minute mark). This video goes on for 40 minutes. After his response video was bombed with a staggering amount of dislikes (currently at 100k views with 12k dislikes), Verlis uploaded an even longer video consisting of him barely defending his actions for an hour and 17 minutes.
Full video here, but it can pretty much be summed up by this:

Twitter Behavior
There are hundreds of terrible tweets made by Verlisify, however I'll keep it to some of his worst moments.
Like that time he refused to battle with a child dying of cancer (the fact that this is a mere footnote in this post should speak volumes of the kind of person he is)
...Or that time he told somebody to "drink base liquids", yet he has attacked other users for the same thing. His defense for saying "drink base liquids" was he meant "eggwhites". (Yes, seriosly, egg whites.)

Artwork, Ownership, and Fair Use
Similar to other people frequently discussed on this forum, Verlisify seems to have a rather lose grasp on what is constitutes as fair use and content ownership. Verlisify frequently steals other people's artwork straight from google images and fails to credit the original artists. Even when the original artists find him, contact him, and tell him he can't use their piece (probably because they don't want to be associated with him), all he does is leave a source on his video and block the artist on twitter. (Seriously.) He will then go on to claim "Fair Use". Despite the fact that fair use is a defense, and only covers educational purposes, parody, and critiques, Verlis seems to think that it means he can go right ahead and take the artwork for any of his own use.

Verlis' Own "Artwork"
Taking a quick look at Verlisify's DeviantArt page, there is no surprise whatsoever why he steals other people's artwork. Who could forget such master-pieces such as "Verlis Steampunk Concept"?
Or his world famous "Commisions"?
Notice the distinct drop in whatever quality he had in a drawing for himself compared to a drawing made for someone else

Fur-Faggotry
Verlis, yet again like other frequently discussed people on this forum, seems to identify with his artwork, probably as a way of dissociating with his sociopathic personality. He identifies as a wolf (probably smells like one as well) and wears amedallion Poke-ball collar around his neck. He even went as far as purchasing a $130 pair of car ear headphones to wear in some of his videos. The "concept art" for his fursona can be seen in another one of his DeviantArt abominations.
Concept:
Collar with Pokeball is a MUST!
