The first time you beat the elite four and champion, you’re awarded the title of champion, but how come the old champion still stands there and probably takes all the challenges? Sorry if that was confusing.

I’d say it would be because:
The Pokemon games work differently. They won’t give you the job of Champion if you win. You have to keep exploring the Pokemon world. Otherwise, the whole game would end there. You have to do endless battles and stay at the League. It’s the way GameFreak made it. You are the Champion, in the honour sense.
i’d think that in the original games, this would be hard to do. but from gen 5 onwards (or at least gen 6), this shoul be very possible. my guess is that if you accidentally defeat a legendary, you’ll want to rebattle E4 in order to reset the event. but if champ isn’t there anymore, who are you supposed to battle to do that?
