People just don’t notice it since he is the last gym leader so by the time you get there your entire team is already evolved and at a higher level. But Wallace is in fact the stronger water type trainer in the entire franchise (one of the strongest types), plus being famously known as the face of the pokemon beauty contests (which are very popular). With those two unique attributes it’s very clear why he was the best candidate to be Champion.

      the joke aside its not entirely wrong. the closes story reason for the change comes from the ruby and sapphire chapter of the pokemon adventure manga. its stated there that wallace did beat steven and became champion, but didn't take the mantle because he wanted to secede his master juan as the 8th gym leader. also because he and winona where a thing and he wanted to be closee to her. at the end of that section steven gives the title back to wallace and some time things happen and so it stays that way for emerald. as for the emerald section it focuses on the battle frontier mostly from what I remember.

    Wally could have a great team in Emerald in the post game.
    Gardevoir, Altaria, Breloom, Arcanine, Ampharos, and Tyranitar.
    I think these Pokémon fit him better in terms of personality. He already has Gardevoirand Altaria.
    I think Breloom is a useful Pokémon he probably should have had instead of Roselia.
    Arcanine is like a guard dog for him.
    Ampharos is a friendly Pokémon that I could see comforting him when he’s struggling.
    And Tyranitar is a pseudo legendary that wasn’t used in the previous generation. It’s dark typing counters psychic and ghost, and the rock is good against flying and bug. It would be the equivalent of his Gen 6 Garchomp. Both contrast his timid nature.

    Just so you're aware, the Steven and Wallace relationship was elaborated upon in ORAS. There's even a cutscene at the end of the game where Steven says something along the lines of "when the time comes you might have to take my place" or something like that, implying Emerald is just another timeline where Wallace succeeds him sooner compared to story events, similar to how Team Rocket just does all their relevant story events a year later in LGPE vs. the Kanto games where Red and Blue are just leaving Pallet Town.

    There actually is an explanation for Wallace's cape in the PokeSpe manga. That cape is the signature champion cape of the Hoenn region, and Steven was the one in possession of it at first. It was later revealed that Wallace was supposed to be the Hoenn's champion, having won the League, but he refused the position because he wanted to inherit the position of Sootopolis gym leader from his mentor Juan, so the one to come in second at the time, Steven, became the champion instead. He later on returned said cape to its rightful owner Wallace during the climax of the manga.
    So, yes, becoming the Hoenn champion does give you a fancy cape.

    I think lorelei should be an honorable mention for Kanto, she's very confident but extremely professional and i mean...She's the Ice-Type Elite four member. If we were to give her Mamoswine instead of Pillowswine on her FR/LG rematch team her team would consist of Dewgong, Lapras, Jinx, Cloyster, Mamoswine and (If we gave her one of the other pokemon she's used before) Articuno or even Slowbro. Chicks a monster honestly.

      Mamoswine is gen 4, FRLG is gen 3. Thus she can't have Mamoswine in it.

      Actually nothing much is mentioned in Emerald concerning Steven and Championship title. I think that decision was less plot and more the creators wanted a Red-Champion-esque battle like G/S/C, given it had already proven to be popular. Considering Emerald is an alternate tale to Ruby/Sapphire. It actually opens a lot of possibilities:
      1. Steven was champion but is later defeated by Wallace (how the protagonist of the games does it every time, and how we saw Iris take the title from Alder)
      2. Wallace was champion, Steven defeated him and became champion, then retired and the championship title automatically reverted to Wallace since he was the last to hold it (Ex: Red left, his title reverted to Blue/Green, Blue/Green rejected it so it reverted to the highest ranking Elite 4 member.)
      3. Wallace was champion and Steven defeated him, but decided not to take the title so it remained with the current champion
      4. Wallace was champion and Steven didn't defeat him/didn't attempt to

    Just as an FYI, the Steven vs Wallace debate is settled with the manga which I understand you not using. The manga explains that Wallace is the champion as he beat Steven, but refused to take the throne, preferring being visited by more trainers as a gym leader and also being able to leave to still show up at contests. So yeah: Wallace is the technical champion, but let Steven keep the role, Steven was originally champion.
