| ====History====
| |
| ====={{series|Diamond & Pearl}}=====
| |
| [[File:Cynthia DP anime.png|thumb|left|240px|Cynthia in her original outfit]]
| |
| Cynthia was first mentioned in [[Lucian]]'s flashback in ''[[DP035|An Elite Meet and Greet!]]'', along with the members of the [[Sinnoh]] [[Elite Four]].
| |
| | |
| She properly debuted in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training!]]'', where she was first seen battling against Lucian with her {{TP|Cynthia|Garchomp}} on television. She then arrived in person in [[Amity Square]], where she was studying ancient tablets. It was here that she met {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}}, and [[Paul]], who rushed down to Amity Square after they heard rumors of Cynthia being there. Paul challenged her to a [[Full Battle]], but Cynthia won easily. She then mentioned that she was just like Paul in her youth, determined to win with the strongest Pokémon. After the battle, because Nurse Joy was busy, she and {{an|Brock}} personally healed Paul's Pokémon, after convincing him to take them to a Pokémon Center. After this, back at the Amity Square Ruins, she explained something written there means very much to her: "When every life meets another life, something will be born". Later, Ash would think about this quote from time to time. Cynthia then decided to go to [[Celestic Town]], where she planned to study the legend of {{p|Dialga}}, {{p|Palkia}}, and the [[Lustrous Orb]].
| |
| | |
| In ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous!]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'', Cynthia, along with Ash, his friends, her grandmother [[Professor Carolina]] and [[Officer Jenny]]'s police officers, tried to stop [[Team Galactic]] from stealing the Lustrous Orb at Celestic Town.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[DP100|Aiding the Enemy!]]'', Cynthia battled {{EF|Aaron}} to defend her title of Champion of the Sinnoh region on television, which she won. Ash and his friends commented that while Aaron was strong enough to be a member of the [[Elite Four]], Cynthia was still far stronger than him.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'' and ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', Cynthia helped Ash and his friends protect the [[lake guardians]] and put a stop to Team Galactic at [[Spear Pillar]].
| |
| | |
| In ''[[DP180|Four Roads Diverged in a Pokémon Port!]]'', {{EF|Flint}} revealed that he intended to challenge Cynthia for her title of Champion.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[DP182|An Old Family Blend!]]'', Cynthia observed the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]] alongside [[Charles Goodshow]], making her the first current Champion to appear at a [[Pokémon League Conference]]. While watching, she showed a deep interest in the battle between Ash and Paul. At the end of the competition, she personally delivered the trophy to the winner, {{si|Tobias}}, who had won the Sinnoh League and the right to face the Elite Four.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[DP191|Memories Are Made of Bliss!]]'', Ash and his friends watched her battle with Flint for the title of Champion. Flint's Infernape managed to defeat two of her Pokémon, but Garchomp ultimately defeated [[Flint's Infernape]], earning Cynthia the victory.
| |
| | |
| Cynthia also had a cameo appearance at the beginning of ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]'', where she was engaged in a battle against {{FB|Tower Tycoon|Palmer}}. In addition, Cynthia made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

| |
| [[File:Cynthia anime BW2.png|thumb|250px|Cynthia in the {{series|Best Wishes}}]]
| |
| In ''[[BW085|All for the Love of Meloetta!]]'', Cynthia met up with Ash again in [[Virbank City]] in [[Unova]] at an ice cream stand. She told Ash, {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}} about the [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]], where she would have an {{wp|exhibition game|exhibition match}}. Ash and {{ashfr}} then decided to go with Cynthia and participate. On the way to the seaport to take a plane to Cynthia's villa in [[Undella Town]], she almost hit an injured {{an|Meloetta}} with her car. She discovered that it was suffering from a fever and gave Ash, Iris, and Cilan instructions on how to make it feel better. She asked Iris and Cilan to find a Berry for it while she and Ash would get some ice. She was revealed to have a {{p|Glaceon}} which used {{m|Ice Beam}} to freeze the water. Cynthia and Ash broke the ice and took it to Meloetta. After it recovered a little, Iris asked Cynthia if she could battle her and her Garchomp while she used {{TP|Iris|Axew}}, as Iris was thrilled to battle a {{type|Dragon}} she had never met before. Cynthia agreed and the battle got underway. Even though Axew learned {{m|Giga Impact}} during the battle, Garchomp proved to be way too strong for Axew. Just when Garchomp was about to hit Axew with {{m|Brick Break}}, Cynthia stopped Garchomp from attacking and ended the battle before Axew could get hurt.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[BW086|Piplup, Pansage, and a Meeting of the Times!]]'', Ash and his friends arrived in Undella Town, at Cynthia's villa. Here, Ash was reunited with {{an|Dawn}} for the first time since his journey in Sinnoh. After that, Cynthia watched a battle between Dawn and Cilan.
| |
| | |
| In ''[[BW090|Jostling for the Junior Cup!]]'', Cynthia was seen talking with [[Alder]] in [[Lacunosa Town]], where the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup was held. Later, she participated in an exhibition match with her Garchomp against Unova Elite Four member [[Caitlin]] and her {{p|Gothitelle}}. The battle resulted in a draw after the battle's 10 minute time limit ran out. She then appeared in ''[[BW091|Battling Authority Once Again!]]'', where she observed the tournament and helped Iris with {{TP|Iris|Dragonite}}'s problem with listening to her commands and gave [[Trip]] some advice. After the conversation Trip thought to himself that after defeating Alder, she would be next. In the [[BW092|following episode]], Cynthia was seen watching the battle of Iris against Ash and after the battle, Cynthia talked to Iris about their relationships with Pokémon. In ''[[BW093|Goodbye, Junior Cup - Hello Adventure!]]'', Cynthia was seen watching the battle Trip was allowed to have against Alder for winning the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup. After this, she watched the closing ceremony of the competition. Back in Undella Town, she watched a battle between Ash and Dawn, and later went with the others to wave Dawn farewell when she went to [[Johto]].
| |
| | |
| In ''[[BW096|Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!]]'' and ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]'', Cynthia helped Ash and his friends put a stop to Team Rocket's Operation Tempest and saved the [[Unova]] [[region]] from the {{an|Forces of Nature}}'s {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Forces of Nature|Therian Forme}}'s rage. She said goodbye to Ash in ''[[BW098|Beauties Battling for Pride and Prestige!]]'' after informing him that the [[Unova League]] was starting in a few weeks.
| |
| | |
| Cynthia also made a cameo appearance in the ending credits of ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]''.
| |
| | |
| ====Character====
| |
| Cynthia is astoundingly powerful and well-respected as [[Sinnoh]]'s {{pkmn|Champion}}. She is measured in her battle style, and while she attacks in quick succession, she prefers not to exhaust either hers or her opponents' Pokémon. Cynthia has a calm demeanour, not showing the slightest of stress even in the heat of {{pkmn|battle}}. Cynthia is incredibly wise and well versed in the Sinnoh time-space legends. Throughout the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}} she often quoted ''"When every life meets another life, something will be born"'', a line directly from the Sinnoh time-space legends. She is particularly interested in the [[friendship]] between Trainers and their Pokémon, and enjoys mentoring young Trainers, and willingly offers advice to support their growth such as {{Ash}}, [[Paul]] and [[Unova League]]'s [[Caitlin]].
| |
| | |
| In her spare time, if any, Cynthia makes sure to unwind at her [[Undella Town]] villa. She also has a sweet tooth, as shown in many of her appearances, however she is often conflicted with which flavor to choose as shown in ''[[DP040|Top-Down Training!]]'' and ''[[BW085|All for the Love of Meloetta!]]''. Her love for sweets also occasionally cause comedic nuisance, as she rushed back towards [[Virbank City]] after receiving a phone call about a specific ice cream flavour she wanted, despite having an injured {{an|Meloetta}} present.
