Pokemon.com - Our monthly Trainer Spotlight debuts with Cynthia, Champion of the Sinnoh region

Pokémon battles are won and lost, but the legends of Trainers and their Pokémon live on. With this monthly series, we'll highlight a Pokémon Trainer who's made their mark on the world of Pokémon.

Our first featured Trainer exemplifies the ideals that noble Pokémon Trainers strive for. She's achieved the title of Champion, but she continues to challenge herself in competitions such as the Pokémon World Tournament and the Battle Tree. She's formidable in battle, but she's also known for her scholarly pursuit of the lore of Legendary Pokémon. And she's a kind Trainer who offers keen advice to Trainers aspiring to be the very best.

This month, our spotlight is on the Champion of the Sinnoh region, Cynthia.
