Starting with a dragon pseudo-legendary (who doesn't have a good starting stats) and having most pokemon of her team evolving by not so easy method to evolve, yet still have a decent firepower and coverage. While it's possible in anime Cynthia can lose to Leon/another Champion, She's one of greatest trainer and character in Pokémon franchise

    If we go by the setting, without game mechanics, then yes she totally could.
    The real question should be, why would she even entertain the idea of becoming the Galar Champion?
    First, Cynthia already has her hands full between her archeologist passion and her own league, with all the problems and obligations being a Champion includes.
    Second of all and the most important, no Champion from another Region, least of all Cynthia, would play second fiddle to some Chairman, least of all Rose (for obvious reasons, slimy idiot). Leon did, because that is how things are run in Galar, until enough was enough and the idiot let out Eternatus.

      Leon doesn't even make the top 5, as in I can name 5 champions who would destroy leon with minimal effort, and y'know what I'm throwing in an honorable mention as well:
      1) Cynthia duh
      2) Red, he is a prodigy trainer who has only ever lost once game wise
      3) Blue, another prodigy who has only ever lost to Red and Ethan
      4) Steven, dude loves steel types but also has some good backup to take out fire types.
      5) N, dude literally has a Zekrom and Reshiram.
      Honorable Mention) Volo, this motherfucker has one of the most broken lineups I've ever seen, however let's limit him to the legal 6 mons and give him Arcanine instead of replacing it with base form Giratina. While Volo's team is similar to Cynthias, it isn't a perfect duplication, in fact I'd argue Volo's mons are actually stronger than Cynthia's BDSP lineup, again only taking into consideration 6 of his pokemon and excluding giratina. Volo could sweep Leon if we ever got a timeline paradox where that happened.

    Cynthia is definitely the most skilled Champion (excluding Red of course), but not the strongest.

    I believe Iris could probably beat Leon though, or at least put a MASSIVE dent in his team.

You cant put the games and the anime on the same line, they dont match up at all, the power scaling in the anime is very much out of order. Besides, they literally only said Leon won because he's the new hot champion. If Cynthia was introduced in this Generation she would be the winner. Its just meeting marketing demand.

    Could you try seeing if Grimsley could become galar champion? Or to continue the champion vs champion try seeing if Wallace could be galar champion? Both would be fun!

    Cynthia is the coolest imo and the classiest. Her aura is so formiddable that we feel scared of her over the screen....and she is the strongest imo, used to haunt my dreams for a month after my Platinum run....I lost 5 mons to her overlevelled Chomp...

      She's the only champion who truly strikes fear in most of our hearts..she was ruthless and still is in the remakes.

    This isn’t even a question Cynthia is the best or at least one of the best Leon team doesn’t compare to her team and her battle style

    Small correction, Cynthia has Togekiss in Platinum not in Diamond/Pearl.
    Great video!

    Ok, random and unrelated, but smol Cynthia is sooooooooo cuuuuuute! I didn’t realize that she’s probably been champion since she was like a teenager in Sinnoh but seeing this now is fucking adorable! She glowed up mad hard lol, and also got like a foot and a half taller.
