The video content continues—
[After growing up, Cynthia defeated the previous Sinnoh Champion Trainer, Lucian, alongside her original team and became the current Sinnoh Champion!]
[She successfully defended her title multiple times and even thwarted an evil organization's conspiracy at Mt. Coronet in the Sinnoh Region.]
The video about Cynthia concluded.
At that moment, a familiar mechanical voice echoed—
[Ding! The scoring system has been activated.]
[You can rate the Trainers displayed based on the animations shown.]
[The system will rank and reward the Trainers according to the scores given.]
[If a Trainer achieves a perfect score, they will receive a special reward.]
[Please rate the first Pokémon Master who appeared.]
Cute as a child. A queen as an adult.
Strong, cool, humble, and a knowledgeable historian.
The audience was captivated by Cynthia's story.
The most intriguing detail? Her love for ice cream and her amusing difficulty in choosing flavors, adding a charming contrast to her queenly demeanor.
The final score was—
9.9 points!!!
Higher than the strongest Champion, Leon, who scored 9.8, and just shy of a perfect score!
Champion Guest Seat—
"H-Higher than Leon? Cynthia, your popularity is..." Lance stammered, utterly stunned.
Leon, the strongest Champion, had scored 9.8 points. Yet, Cynthia managed to surpass him with a 9.9.
Even members of villain organizations seemed drawn to her, further elevating her score. Cynthia's incredible popularity and charm left Lance speechless.
"Cynthia, you're truly amazing. It's a shame you're not a movie star," Diantha said with a sigh.
If she could collaborate with Cynthia to create films, they would undoubtedly win countless Pokémon Oscars and Academy Awards. Cynthia was the epitome of a screen queen!
"I'm not interested in that," Cynthia replied with a soft smile. She preferred exploring Pokémon history and ancient ruins. It was simply a matter of differing passions.
[The third Trainer will now be revealed.]
Hearing this, Lance perked up, his excitement evident.
The top two spots belonged to Leon and Cynthia, and he couldn't argue with that.
But surely, third place had to be his!
Right?
The silhouette of the third Trainer began to emerge.
"Let the bond of stone guide us forward!"
Lance blinked. That didn't sound like something he would say...
The figure became clearer.
[Silver short hair, sapphire-clear eyes, a dashing suit radiating elegance.]
[Steven Stone: Hoenn League Champion Trainer, son of the president of Hoenn's largest company, Devon Corporation.]
[Specializes in Steel-type Pokémon. Often travels Hoenn in search of rare evolution stones and is a passionate stone collector.]
Audience Seats—
"Wow! Steven's in third place!"
"I didn't expect that. What a surprise!"
"Sure, he's obsessed with mining, but he's still serious when it counts!"
The audience erupted in cheers, particularly the female fans. Steven's charm and gentlemanly demeanor had made him an idol among women.
Unlike other wealthy heirs, Steven was polite, humble, and approachable. His genuine personality made him wildly popular.
He and Cynthia shared a unique status as idol-level Trainers—
One captivated men.
The other enchanted women.
Meanwhile, Lance, seated among the Champions, was utterly petrified.
"W-What?! Why is the stone maniac ranked higher than me?!"
Lance couldn't believe it. How could someone who spent most of his time mining instead of battling achieve third place?
"This doesn't make sense!" he exclaimed.
Steven, ever composed, brushed his silver bangs with a smile. "Perhaps it's because I'm both handsome and skilled. Trainers often challenge me during my travels, and I graciously accept."
"Really narcissistic," Wallace, his good friend, muttered with a smirk.
But in truth, Wallace wasn't much different. The Hoenn Region's two Champion Trainers were both known for their occasional bouts of self-admiration.
Steven's final score was an impressive 9.8 points.
The elegant and wealthy Trainer had certainly earned his place.
[The fourth Trainer is about to be revealed.]
The audience's attention returned to the screen as the next silhouette began to take shape.
The figure emerged—short red hair, a determined expression, and a sleek black cape.
"Even if there's a wall in our way, we'll break through with overwhelming force!"
[The fourth Pokémon Master: Lance.]
[Kanto Elite Four member, Johto Regional Champion, Pokémon Investigator who despises evil, self-proclaimed Dragon Master but the undisputed Flying-type Champion!]
With a loud thud, Lance, seated among the Champions, froze in place.
Wait…
Something seemed off!
Wasn't the introduction going fine until the last part?!
The final remark felt completely unnecessary!
