Because he is? Galar treats battling as a part of it's culture and it's heavily commercialised, he literally is a celebrity and he definitely makes bank doing it, judging from all of his sponsors.

Yeah, it's almost like that, not actually like that. Red, Gold, Brendan and Lucas are 11 and didn't follow any tradition, only Elio did, and the others are older than the rest (from 14 to 17yo).

While its never mentioned as a tradition. You can assume from all the games protagonists, and the high volume of child trainers it is a tradition.

Also there ages are
Red/Leaf: 11
Ethan/Lyra: 11
Brendan/May: 12
Lucas/Dawn: 14
Hilbert/Hilda: 14
Nate/Rosa: 16
Calem/Serena: unknown (presumed older) ~16
Elio/Selene: 11
Victor/Gloria: unknown (presumed younger) ~13

If you take that into account the average age is 13. Different "poke-cultures" will have different ages, but that's neither here no there. Point is, most people taking on the league are gonna be kids, hell even some if gym leaders are kids. So kids are gonna become champions at some point. A kid literally becomes champion in every game.

I wish. One could probably bunch several states (e.g. the Great Lakes area) into a single region. All that heartland is primed to be a Wild Area, as well.
Places like California, Texas, or Florida, sure. But good luck doing one on, say, Wyoming.

Who know? Leon could probably beat a whole bunch of them. Despite how much people hate it he's canonically one of the strongest trainers. In Galar Pokémon battles are big business and entertainment, there's money in it. If it can be viewed as a sport, where there's money, talent flocks. So Leon is probably better than most.

It came from Googling "Pokemon Lucas Age". And the source is an "Azurilland" with no backing, so it's most likely wrong. It looks more likely that there game age is unconfirmed.

Dawn in anime is 10. Bulbapedia staes that game dawn is 4'6 from the Dex size comparison. Going by average Japanese woman height by age (which was an extremly creepy search) Dawn should be 10. Lucas is 4'8 which puts him at around about 11. While its not confirmed, I figure that's the best your gonna get and this has gotten autistic enough.

So 10-11. Even younger than previously stated.

1. There's nothing to suggest E4 members couldn't have greatly varying levels of strength
2. Malva was dominating the match, then Charizard got lucky with a blast burn. There's a very real possibility that a rematch would go the same way. Plus, only a full battle can truly measure a character's abilities as a trainer. The rest of Alain's team is unlikely to be as strong as the rest of Malva's team.

3000 years ago, yes

Masuda also cited the Lucario movie as an example of there being wars a long time ago

https://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2016/07/13/pok-233-mon-39-s-burning-questions.aspx

>So, there isn’t war in the world of Pokémon where armies of Pokémon are fighting for the ideals of their leaders?

>Masuda: Long ago, there may have been wars. Actually, if you look at one of the movies featuring the character Lucario, there are maybe some hints about the past of the Pokémon world.

>Speaking of the movies and consequently the TV show, do the cartoons and the movies and the video games overlap? Is that all one Pokémon world, or are they two separate universes?

>Masuda: Basically it’s the same place. Looking at it as a parallel world, or in some select spots being a parallel world might be more accurate.

There were wars thousands of years ago, but not anymore.
