I hope you're right, it seems really unlikely

She's nerfed for a reason. Garchomp's damage from Sirfetch'd + Cynthia not Mega Evolving it is to make Ash's win believable.

Cynthia isn't winning because the plot is about Ash facing Leon

Ahh the sweet damage control

I want to hug Dynamax Togekiss. Imagine the fluffiness.

>cynthia losing to a 10 year old boy
>believable

Garchomp was nerfed hard. It's moveset is Scale Shot, Dragon Claw, Draco Meteor and Stealth Rock.

It's going to lose to Lucario

>Garchomp's damage from Sirfetch'd
Based duck, damaging a champions ace so bad she has to change her whole battle strategy
one attack from it and garchomp was nearly on its knees, what a pathetic ace

>"nuuu, she has to win, cuz she's storng"
She also spends half her time investigating instead of training, thinking of past events in the world's history than thinking of new strats, counters or tactics. She's an astute battler, but Ash (and Leon, for that matter) are a different breed apart, who think of nothing but pokémon, meeting as many as they can and becoming a better battler every waking moment.
Cynthia cannot compete. That's not a slight on her, she's strongest in Sinnoh for a good reason. But she just isn't able to match Ash's ability to pull out some off-the-wall tactic and make it stick, even her preview said she's reasonably predictable, even if most can't take advantage of her predictability when the chips are down.
And let's face it, inside Japan, Satoshi is the only ones the fans would accept beating Cynthia. Weebs as always count for nothing to the Pokémon animators.

Nah, what a chad duck. Cynthia's 'Chomp is no joke, moveset notwithstanding. Remember it went 4-0 in short order against Paul and likely got stronger from Cynthia's ME training (assuming they underwent it to gain their Key/Garchompite stones).
And then the duck who people were sleeping on came and almost KO'ed it like Rocky almost beat Creed at the end of the first Rocky.

This is the most ridiculous claim and it keeps getting recycled. Ash does not even remotely spend all him time training. He spends an enormous amount of his time on adventures, with his friends, and just fucking around. That's what has made him strong. The franchise is about growing together with your pokemon on adventures and by gaining knowledge of the world. It has always been that and it always will. Studying legends and mythology are an excellent way to do that -- especially when you can actually meet and fight the legends.

Cynthia and Ash are both extremely powerful and the show has done everything to convey that this round. I'm confident either of them could trounce Leon. Leon is a sad little plant grown alone in a greenhouse who can't find meaning in life and these two would crush him.

She is overwhelmingly competitive.

this
+ le back pains

lets keep this discussion going

>Cynthia isn't winning because the plot is about Ash facing Leon
Hasn't the plot always been about Ash wanting to be the best? He's only ever won the newly established Alola league.

>Cynthia isn't winning because the plot is about Ash facing Leon
Basically this.

Her voice is so unsettling...
