SaiGAR 2008 was such a shitshow according to /a/nons, so much that it was cancelled by the host himself. What a debacle.

The tournament was cancelled after the Group F finals (top 16 round). At that point, six contestants have already advanced to the Elite Eight: Hosaka, Shark Fujishiro, Nagasumi Michishio, Lordgenome, Team Rocket Boss Giovanni, and Jeremiah Gottwald.
