Move proposal

While it's new and thus could probably be moved without much fuss, there are some arguments to be made on the name, so I'm opening this up. Not many people know this as the "Chaos cheating scandal," so the name, while descriptive, isn't very SEO'd.

There are some potential names we could use:

  1. Super Pichu cheating scandal - Refers to the "Super Pichu" people describe the cheated Pichu as.
  2. Modded or Hacked Pichu scandal - Descriptive version of the above that drops "cheating."
  3. Pichugate - A common pejorative name for the incident that's referenced in some articles and videos; a reference to the Watergate political scandal.
  4. Ohio cheating scandal - Matches the Wikipedia formatting, eg. The 2018 Australian ball-tampering scandal.

I'm personally for the first, so my proposal names it. It's used in some media, such as these;

Pichugate is about as relevant as the Super Pichu name, being used in more YouTube videos at the very least, so you could argue either way on them.

What do you think?
