I did not. I did not even know about this until someone in my Overwatch group mentioned it.

Never really understood why people get their jollies by DDoSing sites and ruining other people's fun. Like, I get why, I just don't get...WHY.
Next Pokemon game(s): Pearl
Last finished Pokémon game: Shield
Other games: Skyrim Special Edition (Switch), Spyro Reignited Trilogy (Switch & PS4), Okami (Switch & PS4)
Other gaming goals: completing a Living Pokedex (minus some event Pokes) and going through at least 1 game per generation
