Please do.On paper their matchups seems pretty even, is there anything specific that gives Cynthia an edge?
(Also I'll add this as a vote if you prefer)
Mega Pokémon are strongOff topic but how tf did cynthia lose to diantha?
She's not equipped to deal with Megas and Fairy type since the game her team came from didn't have those.Off topic but how tf did cynthia lose to diantha?
I'm pretty sure BDSP Cynthia wipes every single champion in the series because its actually a semi competent competitive team lolDiantha only have Mega Gardevoir, and Cynthia has more than enough coverage to deal with Diantha's team (Spiritomb checks Hawlucha, Lucario checks Tyrantrum, Aurorus and Gardevoir, Roserade checks Pumpkaboo, Garchomp checks Goodra and Milotic is great against any of Diantha's special attackers)
Besides, her BDSP team would absolutely murder Diantha. Just having Megas in not enough when Cynthia got many options to deal with her
Cynthia is higher leveled, has objectively better pokemon, and counters all of his pokemon at the same timeI don't see why Blue doesn't win. He was the champion of a region with stronger trainers than Sinnoh, and grew stronger and more skilled over the years to become a gym leader in Johto
Why "objectively better"? If anything, Machamp would outskill, since it has one of the best skill even when untrained. Level doesnt matter when it comes to strength at all. What counters does she have?Cynthia is higher leveled, has objectively better pokemon, and counters all of his pokemon at the same time
Levels actually mean a lot here, some of Blue's type advantages are actually screwed here because of itWhy "objectively better"? If anything, Machamp would outskill, since it has one of the best skill even when untrained. Level doesnt matter when it comes to strength at all. What counters does she have?
Exegutor could use Hypnosis to counter Garchomp, and then Psychic to toss it around. Roserade gets slammed by Arcanine. Milotic is one shot by machamp's thunder punch, gastrodon gets slammed by Exegutor, Lucario gets slammed by rhydon, gyarados, machamp, arcanine. Only advantage Cynthia has is Spiritomb, who would just get beaten due to being weaker for the reasons I explained
1) Cynthia is a Champion as well, and she has both a higher levelled team than Blue, as well as a far more versatile one, with Spiritomb having no weakness to anything Blue may haveI don't see why Blue doesn't win. He was the champion of a region with stronger trainers than Sinnoh, and grew stronger and more skilled over the years to become a gym leader in Johto
Levels dont mean much for strength. Nothing counters Blue's Gyarados and Machamp while I proved Blue has more counters to Cynthia. The difficulty of the game has nothing to do with feats, Blue is a better champion1) Cynthia is a Champion as well, and she has both a higher levelled team than Blue, as well as a far more versatile one, with Spiritomb having no weakness to anything Blue may have
2) The trainers in Sinnoh is just as tough as those in Kanto if not more so. Compare playing Platinum to Fire Red, and tell me what is harder (spoiler: not Fire Red)
Oh please. Machamp cannot touch Spiritomb and Roserade counters it. As for Gyarados, Cynthia once again have Milotic and Gastroodon, both of them being very bulky, and know Recover to heal any damage Gyarados might do to themLevels dont mean much for strength. Nothing counters Blue's Gyarados and Machamp while I proved Blue has more counters to Cynthia. The difficulty of the game has nothing to do with feats, Blue is a better champion
Machamp can touch Spiritomb with Thunder Punch and skill, and Gastrodon is 2 shot by Exegutor. Milotic is also 2 shot by Exegutor or Machamp's Thunder PunchOh please. Machamp cannot touch Spiritomb and Roserade counters it. As for Gyarados, Cynthia once again have Milotic and Gastroodon, both of them being very bulky, and know Recover to heal any damage Gyarados might do to them
Sure, use an neutral damage thunder punch while Spiritomb knows psychic moves to easily KO Machamp, whose Special Defense sucksMachamp can touch Spiritomb with Thunder Punch and skill
Exegutor is walled by Spiritomb and Lucario, the former can hit it with Super effective STAB moves, and Cynthia isn't stupid enough to have Gastroodon face a grass typeand Gastrodon is 2 shot by Exegutor. Milotic is also 2 shot by Exegutor or Machamp's Thunder Punch
Lucario will get one shot due to having trash hax outside of psychic which is good, but too many super effective moves. Spiritomb gets slapped by Gyarados using intimidate to induce fear in it and ice fang freezes it along with the entirety of Cynthia's teamSure, use an neutral damage thunder punch while Spiritomb knows psychic moves to easily KO Machamp, whose Special Defense sucks
Yeah Machamp is toast either way
Exegutor is walled by Spiritomb and Lucario, the former can hit it with Super effective STAB moves, and Cynthia isn't stupid enough to have Gastroodon face a grass type
Cynthia doesnt use Togekiss in diamond and pearl, her only advantage is spiritomb who gets clapped by Pidgeot's air slash or gyarados' intimidate and ice fangMachamp would get demolished by Togekiss lmao, he's not that special.
If you choose one team for Cynthia, then you got to chose one team for Blue as well. Blue never owns Gyarados, Arcanine and Exegutor at the same time. One of them is always replaced by his starter (which is Blastoise on most continuities)Cynthia doesnt use Togekiss in diamond and pearl, her only advantage is spiritomb who gets clapped by Pidgeot's air slash or gyarados' intimidate and ice fang
Becuase his team is objectively worse. And being a gym leader is kinda irrelevant to 2 championsI don't see why Blue doesn't win. He was the champion of a region with stronger trainers than Sinnoh, and grew stronger and more skilled over the years to become a gym leader in Johto
Lucario is faster than machamp and can actually take an earthquake with the level difference, Lucario straight up beats machamp hereLucario will get one shot due to having trash hax outside of psychic which is good, but too many super effective moves. Spiritomb gets slapped by Gyarados using intimidate to induce fear in it and ice fang freezes it along with the entirety of Cynthia's team
