I am forever sadden by the fact we never got to have atleast one battle with Cogita or see what Pokemon she might have on a team. Given I have so many thoughts on her, I wanted to share what I think her team could be. This list is in no specific order:
Gastrodon, as Cynthia had one on her team in the original Diamond and Pearl before it got replaced by Togekiss in Platinum. It appears again on Cynthia's team in BDSP, Cynthia has it on one of her teams at the BDSP Battle tower and she can get a Sync Pair with it once reaching Trainer Lodge Friendship Level 100 with Cynthia. It feels like it would make a lot of sense. I personally lean towards her having a West Sea on to match Cynthia, although given how the Ancient Retreat is closer on the map to the East side of the region, so you could argue it could be the East Sea Gastrodon. Either way it makes sense for her to atleast have a Gastrodon.
Porygon-Z, despite Porygon-Z, and the line as a whole showing up in space-time distortions, I could see her obtaining one while doing a personal study of the distortions by wondering into one when they first started showing up in Hisui. Plus, the space-time distortions Porygon-Z shows up, are the ones in the Crimson Mirelands, a place near the Ancient Retreat.This Porygon-Z would also be a reference to the one Cynthia has during her Rematch (after Stark Mountain) in BDSP.
Sylveon, Some of these next thoughts might be a stretch, starting with this one. The way Cogita talks about Enamorus and helps the player character obtain it, reads to me that they were friends and that Cogita didn't necessary caught her (The only thing I see that happening would be as a future Sync Pair in Pokemon Masters EX). So when looking at what other Pokemon Cynthia has used, I remembered she uses a Glaceon on her in Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 both in her Undella Town battle and at the Pokémon World Tournament. Not wanting to give Cogita the same Pokemon that is Irida's ace, I landed on giving her Sylveon. As a connection to Cynthia using an Eeveeluiton, Cynthia and Volo having a fairy type in Togepi/Togekiss and Enamorus also being a fairy type.
Hisuian Braviary, Hisui has a lot of ties to Unova, it always kinda baffles me. As I kinda forget just how much there is and you know who has a Braviary on a team in Unova, Cynthia. Giving Cogita a Hisuian Braviary just fits. She has a connection to Unova thanks to forces of natures and now a Braviary.
Hisuian Goodra, this might be personal bias as I adore Hisuian Goodra with my heart and soul, just like I adore Cogita. However, Cynthia's bloodline seems to have a choke hold connection to both the fairy and dragon types. Hell Cynthia has Sync Pair's with 3 different dragon types; Garchomp, Kommo-o and Giratina. Volo gets to use Garchomp and Giratina TWICE (The charming bastard). Cogita deserves one dragon and I think that should be a Hisuian Goodra. Plus you can first find Goomy and Sliggoo in the Crimson Mirelands, near the Ancient Retreat. It feels right to me.
Mismagius, there is no reason for this. There is nothing I can stack as evidence to help booster this idea. This pick is 100% on vibes alone, baby.
If anyone else has thoughts on this, I would like to hear them.
💔🇵🇸 My Daughter Was Born Under Bombs — I'm Just Trying to Keep Her Alive
My name is Abdulmajid.
I got married one month before the war.
Those were beautiful days — full of hope, love, and simple dreams.
I dreamed of a small home, a quiet family, and a baby girl I could hold without fear.
But the war came…
Suddenly. Brutally.
My mother was killed.
My brother was killed.
Children in my family were taken by the bombs.
My home was destroyed.
And my work stopped completely.
Then… in the middle of this nightmare, my baby girl was born.
A tiny soul, innocent, unaware of the war.
She cries from hunger, from cold, from the sounds of bombs shaking what’s left of our walls.
Today, I’m a father with almost nothing…
Fighting every day to find flour, milk, or even a small meal to feed my child.
Prices are sky-high — a single 25kg bag of flour can cost $800.
There is no work. No income. No safety. No stability.
I write this from under siege, hoping my heart will reach yours.
My name is Abedmajed Elderawi, and I live in Gaza with what remains of my once large and loving family.
Even $1 can make a difference.
It can feed a child, buy milk, or bring a moment of peace.
Be the heart that reaches Gaza. Be the hand that saves.
📌 Please share this post. Let our voices be heard — not buried under rubble.
Vetted by @gazavetters, my number verified on the list is ( #537 )✅️
My name is Saja. I’m a wife, a mother, and a woman who once believed her story would be simple. I thought my days would be filled with watching my daughter grow — from her first smile to her first steps — surrounded by the small joys of everyday life.
But life had other plans.

War has returned to our home. Again. And once again, we find ourselves living under skies that never seem to rest.
There was a moment — a fragile, breathless moment — when the bombs paused and the world seemed to remember us. It gave us hope. We thought maybe, just maybe, we could start to rebuild. But now, we are back in the dark — hiding, holding on, praying.
I’m writing this not as someone seeking pity, but as a mother who has no other choice but to speak.
Imagine holding your baby in the middle of the night, not because she cried, but because the world outside roared too loud for either of you to sleep. Imagine whispering bedtime stories not to lull her into dreams, but to keep the fear from settling into her tiny bones.
This is my life.
This is my daughter’s life.
And even now — especially now — I believe in softness. I believe in kindness. Because when everything else is taken from you, hope becomes the most valuable thing you have.
Why I’m Reaching Out Our home has been damaged. Our lives changed. But through it all, my daughter wakes up every morning with a smile. She reaches for me with trust, with love, with faith that I will keep her safe.
That’s why I keep going.
I’ve launched a campaign to ask for help — not because it’s easy, but because silence is no longer an option. I am asking for support not just for me, but for my baby, and for the quiet strength of so many mothers like me who are fighting, every single day, to hold their families together.
How You Can Help: 🤍 Help us restore parts of our home so we can live with dignity 🤍 Support women and mothers in Gaza with access to care and resources 🤍 Keep the light of hope alive for a generation born in the shadows of war
💛 If you can, please support our journey here:
My name is Saja. I am a mother, a wife, and just one of many women in Gaza trying to hold on — to hope, to my family, and to a life that no
If you can’t give, please consider sharing. Your voice might be the reason someone else hears ours.
From My Heart to Yours Maybe our lives are worlds apart. Maybe you’ve never lived through war. But if you’ve ever held a child and wished the world could be better for them — then you understand more than you know.
I don’t want my daughter to grow up thinking the world turned away.
Please, if you’ve read this far — thank you. Thank you for seeing us. Thank you for caring. We are still here. Still hoping. Still holding on to every kind act like it’s a lifeline.
