do you think Ash will get new clothes? I think it is very likely for Ash to get another style change sometime after Shinou
But Cybercubed, the new protagonist would doubtlessly be a mere clone, doomed to do Gyms, get a team the same five types plus a variable, travel with a female and a useless sidekick, and go through newbie mistakes just like Ash did! Why replace him with someone who will do the EXACT SAME THING? Why, it's mindboggling! And to think that you, the same person who decried the mere thought of replacing May for someone who would do the same thing, would support this!Don't you its about time the show ended and focused on a new cast entirely by the 5th gen?
I wouldn't mind at all if Ash's story wrapped up for good with the D/P series.
Have him stay in his Apple outfit.

...yeah I never saw the point behind "Ash should leave already dammit >/" opinions. Will the show magically become better because we replaced him or something? His longetivity(ten years!) combined with the fact that he's the MAIN CHARACTER points more towards staying than leaving at any rate. And if you thought the uproars over the main females leaving were bad...
Well considering people don't seem to have a problem with Hikari simply retreading all the same ground we watched May do over the last 4 years, I'm wondering why you would have a problem with a new character doing Gyms.
If you can sit through a rehashed quest of another coordinator, then by that logic, you should be able to sit through a rehashed quest of another guy who does Gyms.
If you're fine with one but not the other, then there may be something worth noting about yourself.
To be fair, I think some people wouldn't mind Ash's story wrapping up because:
a) By the time D/P ends, we'll have over 500 episodes. Honestly, that's a good number to end at. Ash is great, but after 500 episodes, it would be a nice time to pass the torch to someone else.
b) They want to get rid of Team Rocket.
If Ash goes, Jessie/James/Meowth go too, and thus we'd have a new show entirely.
In any case, it's quite embarrassing and ironic that people want to sit through another female doing Contests, but they don't want to sit through another guy doing Gyms.
Ah, I love this fandom. It's depressing yet entertaining at the same time.
We can't get rid of Ash! He's been there all along! We've watched his adventures for 8 years! If they got rid of him it just be the same thing all over again with some random new guy who don't even know or have any emotional attachment to! What's the point of that? That's the reason I never bothered to watch the new generation of Digimon....
