>>53190515>He essentially got everything people had been hoping Cynthia would get in 15 years and didn't.Cynthia mogged Leon during gen 8. It was her best gen since 4
Strongest ever in-game team, strongest in the anime (after Ash), champion with most screentime in Journeys, massive Masters shilling.
Even got 2 new games (well, Arceus didnt have Cynthia, but 2 Cynthia ancestors)
Her popularity got a big boost too, and she was already the most popular champion to begin with.
Picrel is your average Cynthia fan during gen 8
