She has eluded capture because anybody who throws pokeballs at humans trying to capture them is probably crazy and nobody would believe them if they figured her out.
Additionally, the pokemon she battles with weren't actually captured by her. They play along so that they also won't be captured, because everybody knows you can't capture a pokemon already owned by somebody else.
She is secretly a legendary pokemon who helps her fellow pokemon evade capture. And since every legendary pokemon needs to be part of a duo or trio, her counterpart is
N, who helps pokemon who have already been captured.Generation VII: Every NPC Was Secretly a Pokemon Edition
