Champion

A Pokémon League Champion, usually refers to a Trainer who has completed a Pokémon League by collecting all the necessary Badges, and either winning a regional Pokémon tournament or defeating the Elite Four and the previous Pokémon Champion (if there is one). The Champion usually resides in the Indigo Plateau with the Elite Four but some relinquish the position to pursue other adventures, train, or retire. This is the case with the current Kanto Champion, Red, who left his Champion duties to the current Johto and ex-Kanto Champion, Lance.
