NO WORRIES ITS NOT SILLY!!! i still kinda struggle with this myselffnjks

I see it as like. after you defeat the champion you become kind of like their “student” ish i guess and you go through like a training period where the new champ can get used to all the responsibility and such while the previous champion mentors them!! usually theres supposed to be like an. inaugeration ceremony after this when they officially become champion
so what happened with leaf is that. she had kind of a misconception of what the duties of being champion actually was. lance tells her that she has to stay in kanto most of the time because. shes the champion. and shes kinda bummed about this because right after being champion the other thing she wanted to do was travel.
she tells lance about this and he recommends that if she wants to travel, she should do it now before the inauguration ceremony (since it wouldn’t be so great kanto gets a new champion and then they find out she disappears immediately lol) so he tells her that if she wants, she can take a year off and do what she wanted to do, he’d essentially steward the kanto championship title until she comes back, and when she returns she’ll be sworn in and officially become the kanto champion
so shes thrilled and yeah!! sounds good!!!! green is less thrilled and actually pissed because its like. a month prior to her making this decision green discovers he's vastly in love with her. and now shes leaving in like. 2 weeks. so after some events, greens bitter ass starts a fight and he says something actually pretty hurtful (and doesn’t immediately apologize because. hes senseless and pissed off) so. she leaves literally the next day, and instead of 1 year shes gone for 2. only sends her mom small postcards while shes gone
but!!! when she comes back she finishes her training for champion and goes through the ceremony and officially becomes the Kanto champion!!!! (meanwhile lance is both the official Johto champion and unofficial Kanto champion, so Lyra can fight him all she wants but she cant be the Kanto champion until leaf comes home. lance also has to mentor lyra when she beats him) spoiler: lyra gets her ass kicked. she always fights leaf and calls for rematches but always loses and green thinks its hilarious (hes pissed she beat him still) so Leaf and Lyra end up being the champions of Kanto and Johto respectively
