You know what makes me sad?

The video about the Battle Tree shows Cynthia (and Wally) like a regular old character coming back and then

O EM GEE SPECIAL SECTION "BATTLE LEGENDS RED AND BLUE!!!"

I get that they're very popular and its the annivesary but the Kanto pandering is way too annoying

Cynthia is one of the most popular and recognizable trainers in Pokemon history. To make her look like she's below their level is stupid. Not to mention her team shits on Red and Blue's (Pikachu? PIdgeot? Come on...)

There's so much more iconic characters than just Kanto ones. At least BW2 was fair in treating them all the same

You do realize this is because her model is being recycled for Sinnoh remakes right?

If they didn't redesign her for that it's because they think the design is fine.

We all know the better champions are Steven, Iris, and Wallace

Red is the very first playable character and Blue is the very first rival.

They are almost as iconic to the series as Pikachu.

Not counting remakes of games they were already in, Red and Green/Blue have appeared in:
>RGBY

>B2W2
>SM

That's four main series games, and with remakes it's still only 6.

Cynthia has been in:
>DPPt
>HGSS
>BW

Which is 5, which is only 1 short of Red/Green even when factoring in their appearances in games that are remakes of ones they've already appeared in.

I'm not anti-gen one. I just can't enjoy them anymore. I've played with Gen 1 Pokemon for six generations now and the only time they ever gave me a break was with BW1.

I will NEVER pick a Gen 1 Pokemon over a Pokemon from another Generation now.
>>
>>29504147
I think it has more to do with the fact that Red and Blue have been redesigned and aged up a bit for the anniversary, whereas other trainers like Cynthia and Wally will be basically the same.

Because, contrary to Cynthia, Red and Blue need all the possible advertising because they are too old for us :^(
>>
>>29505151
She's the champion in one Gen and makes some cameo appearances in others.

Red is the player character of the first and probably most iconic Gen and the final boss of the second Gen. Blue is the first rival character and has made just as many if not more cameo appearances than Cynthia.

I've followed every iteration of the mainline games and Red and Blue totally outclass Cynthia in terms of importance and iconicism, sorry.

Red and Blue obviously got more attention because they got redesigns, and it's the whole 20th anniversary thing. Obviously characters from the first games are gonna get a little more spotlight.

Cynthia's appeared in like five different games and you're STILL whining about her not getting enough attention? Fuck off.

Gamefreak begs to differ, little one.

Cynthia's always had a female Garchomp, this one in the pic is male.

She has a female one in the Japanese trailer.

>>29505293
She could, you know, have more than one Garchomp
>>
>>29505360

If you remember Pokemon Origins, they pretty much reveal gym leaders have more than the pokemon they use against you.

wouldn't surprise me if the Elite 4 was the same.

Cynthia's roster isn't 100% consistent.
>>
>>29504894
You do realize that a lot matters to team composition, levels, etc. Cynthia is notoriously the hardest Champion by a good margin for a reason.
>>
>>29504579
No, no. I think you meant normies.

>>29504894
That's because you did not pick up the fuckin machop. It´s that easy to win against her.

Oh fuck off. She's already been in more games than any other character in the series. What makes her so fucking special compared to everyone else?

god damn son nothing can satisfy you
>>
>>29505077
BW shouldn't be counted as two if remakes aren't and also you shouldn't count HGSS as two if you count them as only two for Red/Green
>>
>>29505544
Still easy, who gives a fuck about what pokemon they use? After the second or third gym, it doesn't matter anymore, since you already have a wide variety of pokemons and moves. And I don't even use a full party to battle, I usually ony use 4 pokemons and have 2 as HM slaves.
>>
>>29505698

In this day and age of political correctness, Cynthia is practically considered a symbol of female empowerement. By being the first ever female champion, she creates hopes and dreams for women all over the world, by insinuating that they too, can become a champion like her.

You may try to undermine her cultural importance, but your attempts in doing so, is like the equivalent of trying to hide the sun with your finger.
>>
>>29505829
She's also pretty fucking hot, so when you're a plot involved character and hot? Well that just doubles the attraction.

Red and Blue haven't been seen since Gold and Silver (and their remakes), discounting the PWT, so they're a much bigger deal. Cynthia's pretty recent and Wally was probably just thrown in because they already had a model for him.

Red and Blue are, aside from Ash and Gary who were based on them, the two most well known characters in the entire series. If you think Cynthia has anywhere near as much recognition as those two, you an idiot.

Maybe step back from the hardcore pokemon fanbase and look at it as a whole, casuals included, and just see how much more well known Red and Blue are compared to your fucking waifu.

Or, you know, they got that feeling when they played as May in Ruby and Sapphire, or Kris in Crystal, and beat Steven and Lance to become champion, and thus made their character a female champion.

You know, I was just joking around when I started that prompt by posting less than noteworthy characters, but you might actually have a legit case for this one.

A one-off NPC is more well known than a sinnoh champion, how'bout that.
>>
>>29505224
Red and Blue are important and iconic to me too, but plotwise, Red is the protagonist of RBY that takes down Team Rocket, becomes the Indigo League champ, and then fucks off to Mt. Silver.

Green is Red's rival, was briefly the Indigo League champ, and then becomes the Viridian City gym leader.

Cynthia is the Sinnoh League champ and helps stop Cyrus from destroying the universe, and then gets involved in researching bizarre shit about Arceus in the Sinjoh Ruins. Everything since has been cameos just so she can pop in and say hi, but she has a leg up on Red and Green if GF were to ever try to go for continuity and a greater overall story in the games because of her direct involvement in some important DEEPEST LORE moments.
>>
>>29509993

Considering GF still sets up the Kanto duo as living legends in universe, they'd just write something about how they stop evil teams around the globe in their off time.
