Since in every [[main series]] game the player goes on to defeat the standing Champion, every [[player character]] could be considered a Champion. However, for players, becoming the Champion is mostly a symbolic honor, as they are unable to battle challengers or take up any other league duties. In addition, the former Champion will still remain at the [[Pokémon League]], retaining the title of Pokémon Champion. | Since in every [[main series]] game the player goes on to defeat the standing Champion, every [[player character]] could be considered a Champion.

The path to becoming Champion differs between the anime and the games. In the anime, instead of fighting the Elite Four, there is a [[Pokémon League Conference|tournament]] among accomplished Trainers; however, [[Lucian]] [[DP035|mentioned]] that the winner of the Sinnoh League has the opportunity to battle the Elite Four and their Champion. Even an Elite Four member can usurp the Champion by battling them. | The path to becoming Champion differs between the anime and the games.
