First off, being champion wasn't sprung on you at the end.
Becoming the island champion was always a part of the island challenge. Kukui just wanted it established as a Pokemon league so that it would be officially recognized the world over.
You, the protagonist. Your own personal goal from the very start was to complete the island challenge and become an island champion. You, the protagonist, completed this goal, albeit it with a slightly modified outcome.
>You did it at Lillie's behest after she drug you there. That part of the game was all about Lille confronting her mom. You were just a tool, like a warrior's sword.No, you fuck. You weren't the warrior's sword. Your Pokemon were the warrior's sword. Nebby was the warrior's sword. But you? You were the warrior wielding the sword in the defense of one who couldn't wield it herself.
Lillie was little more than Princess Zelda, but you were Link.
>So like a good pet, you save the main character.Heroes are selfless and aid those in need. Lillie was in need.
>Post-game neither matters nor is it canon.Show me where this was stated by an official source.
>Sidequests also are not canon.Show me where this was stated by an official source.
>>The entire point of the game>Was Lillie and her story.And you and yours.
I bet games with ensemble casts confuse the fuck out of you.
