When pokemon journeys ends do you want Ash to stay as the protagonist or would you rather see him be a recurring character next series and have Chloe, Goh, or even a new character as the protagonist for the anime?

If I am allowed to wish for the moon? I think it would be best if Ash retires from here. I just don't see how they could continue to escalate his growth after being 8th Strongest (or even higher soon!) in the World. Everything else will by default feel smaller. This would be like after winning the Tenkaichi Budokai, Goku went back to fighting random thugs on the street and struggled with them. It just doesn't feel good narratively.

That said... I 100% expect them to send Ash to Espania Region for a more typical Regional Series set up after this series, and we'll be saying farewell to Goh and Chloe. So it goes.
