A Pokémon champion or League champion (Japanese: リーグ優勝者 League champion or simply チャンピオン Champion) is the highest known level of rank for a Pokémon trainer. It 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. There is usually only one Pokémon champion per region at a time. It is assumed that the champion must defend their title against challengers, although this is never explicitly stated.
