Since the release of Pokemon Go, the Pokemon Goservers have proven to be unreliable crashing nearly daily.
Given the popularity of the game, the Pokemon Go servers require incredibly heavy maintenance and upkeep.
However, todays downtime was attributed to a DDoS attack.
Successful games have often been soft targets for hacking groups like Lizard Squad, SkidNP and others.
Now an unknown called PoodleCorp has claimed the responsibility for the DDoS attack in a tweet.
In some case, Pokemon Go reported their games froze while other said that it took forever to load.
Hopefully, Niantic figures out a solution soon so we can get back to the game.
