>>54610728Cynthia is not hard, people who think Cynthia are hard only think so for one of 2 reasons
1. they played DPPT when they are a small child and thus didn't know how the game worked properly, dragon type resisting all 3 starter types probably blew a lot of kids out
2. unironically and completely reddit osmosis, they see a bunch of people saying "omg cynthia is soooo hard" and assume its true or fool themselves into thinking its true, its the same thing with Whitney but to a lesser degree
anyways, It's Volo because Arceus has almost no trainer battles and you're obviously going to be underleveled when you get to him, or at least most people will, him having 7 (or 8, doesn't his giratina change forms? I dont remember) pokemon in his team is also ultra fucking bullshit
my favorite trainer battle? its
