Evolution of Pokemon League Champion Battles (1998 - 2017)

[@phenomenonnarutokun]

[@KrazyFalcon]

Lmaooo

[@ferb9623]

Lance was more than enough for me back then and when i knew it wasn't over,i had the same feeling like u,nevertheless,i had a lot of fullrestores,and just a muk and a charizard,i beat him but it took a lot of time

[@1ZosoLZ]

When you find out who the 8th gym leader in Gen 1 is lol

[@ElJuanoVideos]

Had the same exact reaction, I was like: "Oh ffs, not him..."

[@TheAwesomeDarkNinja]

There's just something special about Cynthia: - Team with maximum IVs - Epic as hell intro music and even more epic battle music - First female champion - Leads with a Pokemon that has no weaknesses - Returns in every gen after this except 6 Oh sorry, I guess there's multiple somethings about Cynthia.

[@sansanfajrian3847]

why cynthia doesn't exist in pokemon gen 6? because gen 6 is just for baby :)

[@LeMuDX]

Her lead has no TYPE weaknesses, you can safely set up in it’s face and blast her team to nothing if you have something that can even remotely take two hits from it

Shoot I remember playing Platinum in my senior year of high school and literally questioning how the hell this game is supposed to be beaten by 8-9 year old kids lmao.

[@messaroundaccount1193]

Bro how many times I got my ass handed to me by Cynthia. I only just slyly won after spamming revives and full restores until eventually by some miracle I managed to defeat her with my only pokemon with less than 20HP

[@kohinoorbanerjee4009]

There was one ez way to win, I threw my Pokémon in the daycare and biked up and down for a few hours and boom I have level 80 Pokémon, did the same with the rest of he team

It took me 9 tries to beat her, im still wondering how kids can finish platinum and dp honestly

[@jacobsendejo8788]

Lance was my favorite. I remember playing Pokemon Crystal as a kid and feeling fear when I saw his Dragonites, I would always lose midway facing him but then I taught my Feraligatr Ice Punch and swept through him, I remember my jaw dropping as a kid in pure shock and accomplishment. Little did I know that you can go to Kanto afterwards. Truly a memorable moment.

[@goldentrash0290]

Me too bro. For me Lance is also the best. I was excited playing gold with my older brother and even if it was years ago big battles like this are still clearly memorable. I love The GSC ....NOSTALGIA😍😢

[@zVxgito]

[@ejj145]

Ice beam does wonders

[@gowonshealthyscalp2127]

I use Lapras to sweep his Dragonite. So much nostalgia

[@gilibeck]

Gen II League Trainers were a bit OP in my opinion... not enough exp gained through the storyline to reach level 50 and defeat Lance at first try

[@dwaerom]

Being the first champion I beat, and being a 4 gen big fan, Cynthia holds a piece in my heart. ★

[@siontopps4375]

Matita Giallah my first game was pearl, however I was never able to get past flint since I chose torterra and sonely used him. My champion to beat was iris, then I got white, so then alder. Then I beat Lance, and used to same team to be Cynthia. By now I've got platinum and beaten her there with the Pokémon used in the story

[@standotexe]

First champion I beat was N technically speaking But if you don't include him it was Iris in white 2

[@kuein]

my first champion was lace LMAO my little old self never finished the older games because I was too dumb to know where to go

[@WiseManToad]

[@JDarkAngeI]

Blue: yes because you don't exist yet. Lol

[@NightHawk1041]

Garchomp alone can handle that team. If anything, Lucario can too. You sleep on Cynthia's power.

[@DK-qy9xb]

What about Cynthia

[@lionofdemise]

Every single battle against these champions holds a special place in my heart. Pure shock and awe when you find out that Blue is the champion. Lance holds nothing but great fear when you are facing him. Steven shows you how tough and restlessness his Steel type Pokemon can be. Wallace shows you the beauty and soul of the power of Hoenn. Cynthia demonstrates perfect balance and harmony in her Pokemon. Alder and Iris, they were adamant throughout your entire journey and you can see it clearly during your battle against them. Diantha was radiating of beauty, fame and elegance. And she shown you all those qualities of her in the battle against you. Kukui and Hau were exciting and a thrilling challenges. The first chance to battle a professor and battling a rival again. Qualities we haven't seen in a Pokemon game in years.

[@zaberz]

lionofdemise You can battle professor Oak in first gen games

[@lionofdemise]

Zaberz I know that. But in the Americas, you couldn't. So I never battled against oak

[@JamTube01232]

[@prspneuro2244]

Cynthia's battle music is my favorite out of the series by far. The chaotic symphony is fitting for the chaotic fight Cynthia puts up.

[@anthonyt425]

Agreed. It's very melancholy and strikes, what I believe to be, the epicness of a Champion battle.

[@XXlegovidXx]

@@anthonyt425 Used to agree, till I heard lance’s way more, feel it encapsulates the significance of what you’re about to do and the true epicness of the battle better than that of Cynthia’s imo, the build up to the drop is timeless and doesn’t sound overly cheesy, unlike that of Gen 5+.

@@kristin-theworlddestroyer2775 should I continue playing Pokemon white

[@kristin-theworlddestroyer2775]

Unknown 247, From my personal opinion, yeah you should continue playing it occasionally. Depending on where you’re at in the game I think it’s pretty fun to do battles in the building left of the Pokémon Center or do subway battles. If you’re still in the main story then you should keep playing because the story (in my opinion) is well written. However Unknown 247, I also think that it’s your choice if you want to continue playing Pokémon White, because for me I still occasionally play the game even though I frequently get teased for playing Pokémon Black because it’s categorized by many as a boy’s game and it’s almost 10 years old. If you want to play other games that are cheap to buy then my best assumption is Pokémon Conquest

I gotta say that Wallace has to be my favorite champion. he gets so much hate just because, but I think that it's fitting for Steven to have left the Champion title to his friend that specializes in water, especially since so much of the region is covered in it. I like him for personal reasons (I love water and am an artist as well) but I do feel that his team is lackluster, but with the amount of water Pokemon now they could easily make him really hard... also a moment of silence for mega Milotic

my team was infernape (because its fire type), bidoof, starly, dialga, bidoof, bidoof and then when i battled Cynthia... I changed up my team

[@ultimat3gohan]

my new team was infernape, weavile, crobat, Dialga, Gyarados, and alakazam

[@cricrivi]

Rock is not weak to ice tho, maybe you're talking about ground type? I mean Garchomp is ground and dragon so it's 4 times weak to ice

Lance was such an elite dragon master, that he was able to evolve 3 dragonites early xD

Rematch with blue in leaf green was one of the hardest for me. Especially when I still had that habit of leveling only one pokemon.

[@LITTLE1994]

Champions are always the fun part, being final bosses of the main storyline. Blue and Red are classics, but Cynthia will always be known as the most infamous.

Same, Cynthia may have the best intense battle music but when you hear iris champion song it’s like everything you’ve ever done has led to that very moment getting you hyped up for the fight also Cynthia’s battle is like fighting team Rockets leader or something

Champions are champions for a reason. They all were strong and definetly took more than one go at them. Except Blue he was honestly weak in battle. Red, Cynthia, Lance and others were pain.
