    So, as many may know Cynthia is in B/W for a battle :)
    She has here team from Platinum but far more levelled up. So what team did you use to beat her if you beat her?

    Mine:
    Sumarawott lvl 81
    Tropius lvl 79
    Charizard lvl 85
    Scizor lvl 80
    Noctowl lvl 71
    Zekrom lvl 87

    :D So what was your team?

    Your PKMN are overlevelled. It's no surprise that you beat her with those PKMN.

    All of my PKMN are only Lv. 75 when I beat her. Fair and square.
    Oh, and by the way, it's Samurott. Not "Sumarawott".

    I beat her with:
    Lv. 75 Samurott
    Lv. 75 Jellicent
    Lv. 75 Zekrom
    Lv. 75 Simisear
    Lv. 75 Hydreigon
    Lv. 75 Chandelure

    Cynthia is not much of a worthy opponent, I'd say.

    Here's the team I fought her with:

    Adamant Stoutland Lv.74
    Modest Sigilyph Lv.75
    Brave Gigalith Lv.75
    Docile Darmanitan Lv.75
    Modest Lilligant Lv.75
    Modest Jellicent Lv.75

    She wasn't really that hard, so you don't really need to overlevel your Pokémon...
     
    I did overlevel my pokemon :/
    but the first time i battled her i was all lvl 60's and i lost so i spent two weeks training D:
     
    I don't know who Cynthia is so I researched a bit and saw that she was the champion in 4th gen games specifically Diamond, Pearl and Platinum. Anyways, in my play through (Pokemon White Version), I didn't really expected her to be THAT strong so I somewhat came unprepared, she raped my team of:

    Samurott Lv. 65
    Reunclius Lv. 69
    Krokodile Lv. 60
    Unfezant Lv. 70
    Galvantula Lv. 75
    Zoroark Lv. 57

    and so I trained them all to at least levels 80+. Then finally, I won. Its really unfortunate though, my nephews deleted my save so all of my events, legendaries and premium breeds are all gone. I swear I will hide my cartridge properly next time...=(
     
    I was caught completely off guard by her and accidentally hit yes to fight her. I'm kind of lucky I beat her.

    Wooper Lv. 69
    Chandelure Lv. 70
    Lugia Lv. 65
    Breloom Lv. 70
    Honchcrow Lv. 66
    Ampharos Lv. 100
     
    Beating her with level 1s

    Well that's not me but my team was,

    Darmanitan lvl 78
    Mienshao lvl 76
    Crobat lvl 77
    Bronzong lvl 80
    Eelectrik lvl 80
    Jellicent lvl 83

    (This was my old save so I may have got the levels wrong)
     
    I bet cynthia with.....
    Metagross lv 67
    dragonite lv 63
    samurott lv 68
    Sawsbuck lv 64
    Zebstrika lv 62
    Krookodile lv 64

    i was lucky to win, her last pokemon was in red health, my metagross was in red health i scraped through with a bullet punch.
     
    Level 82 Volcarona (EV and IV trained)

    Fire Blast
    Psychic
    Bug Buzz
    Quiver Dance

    Level 75 Samurott

    Waterfall
    Megahorn
    Revenge
    Aerial Ace

    Level 67 Zebstrika

    Wild Charge
    Flame Charge
    Thunder Wave
    Facade

    Level 72 Mienshao

    Hi Jump Kick
    Stone Edge
    Aerial Ace
    U-Turn

    Level 78 Chandelure

    Fire Blast
    Shadow Ball
    Psychic
    Energy Ball

    Level 79 Archeops
    Stone Edge
    Earthquake
    Acrobatics
    Shadow Claw
     
    I beat her with a freshly caught Volcarona from the relic castle and replaced its heat wave with flamethrower.
     
    entire cynthia team sweeped with lv89-90 sceptile xD (though I was lucky to land a critical hit on garchomp with earthquake)
     
    My strongest pokémon was a level 69 Samurott (I had to do it at that level for the lulz).

    She was harder than Morimoto (I accidentally beat him when I was only really trying to raise my Rufflet). Although it was more a case of all her pokémon (Except Eelektross) where tough, whereas with Morimoto it was just Zebstrika and Simipour.
     
    Serperior + 6coils + leaf blade.... thats all i needed, but i had my zekrom,volcarona (raised from lv1 larvesta), samurott, zoroark, & lucario just in case, but they were unneeded, serperior is the best final stage beginner ever.
     
    First person in the game where I had to go way out of my way in order to beat her.

    Miltank lv100 (Don't you just loooove the GTS)
    Raichu lv84 (He's been my bro ever since Gen I)
    Salamance lv73 (Gotta love Dragons!)
    Aerodactyl lv76 (Sweet type coverage there)
    Wailord lv79 (Two words; BODY SLAM)
    Darmanitan lv81 (Hell yeah! Zen Mode & Belly Drum!)
     
    Samurott Lv. 71
    Zebstrika Lv. 71
    Stoutland Lv. 71
    Liepard Lv. 71
    Sigilyph Lv. 71
    Simisear Lv. 71
    yay!!! bye bye Cynthia
     
    The video of the guy beating Cynthia using only level 1 Pokémon remains the most impressive thing I've seen done in a Pokémon game. I can't link until 15 posts so here's the end of the URL /watch?v=SkVT1KjojCk
