Clay is Over Party

In 2021, YouTuber SaltyDKDan did a let's play Nuzlocke of Pokémon Black on YouTube. After losing to Clay the first time around in Driftveil City, his chat wanted to "cancel" Clay for beating Salty. When the hastag #clayisoverparty trended on Twitter, the hashtag confused some who thought it was referring to the Minecraft YouTuber DreamWasTaken, since his name is Clay. On the same day of the stream, Dream's private account had deactivated for an unrelated reason earlier. More information can be found on That time we cancelled Dream on accident (#ClayisOverParty).
