A Champion (Japanese: チャンピオン Champion) is a type of Pokémon Trainer that first debuted in the Generation I games. It is the name given for the Trainer who last defeated the Elite Four and the previous Pokémon champion.
Although the player character is always introduced to the Champion before challenging the Elite Four, there is often nothing to suggest their status, so it is often a "surprise" to find out that that person is the Champion.
After becoming Champion, the player returns home, rather than staying at the Pokémon League to fight challengers. The previous Champion keeps his/her position. This may be a decision of the player character and his/her family rather than official Pokémon League rules, as Champion Blue also keeps his position.

Trivia
- In HeartGold and SoulSilver, all Champions from previous paired versions appear. Blue, the Champion from Red and Green, Red and Blue and FireRed and LeafGreen, is the Viridian Gym Leader, Lance from Gold and Silver is of course the current Indigo Plateau Champion, Steven from Ruby and Sapphire alerts the player to Latias/Latios roaming and later gives the player a Hoenn starter Pokémon, and Cynthia from Diamond and Pearl appears in the Sinjoh Ruins. Only Wallace does not appear; however, he was Champion only in a third version (Emerald), while all others aside from Steven were Champions in all games of their region.
- Red, although not a Champion at the time, also appears and can be fought at Mt. Silver. He is the only player character Champion to appear.
- The Gym Leaders in the French versions are called Champions, while the champion is called maitre. Maitre means master, while Champion simply means champion.
