Tell that to the Pokemon Company. The ratings for the anime itself have been in the toilet for more than a decade, yet they wont let it go. It is waay to popular, too much money. It is like Batman, some movies (the animated ones) are great, some suck (the REAL action ones), yet you will watch them regardless.
I was speaking more so in the sense that if your approval rating (on a personal level largely feel negative about the show) why not invest (your energy/time) into other stuff rather than keep the same reductive pattern of just negative posting, negative speculation negative reviewing. It just seems weird how many fans on this site will watch while thinking pretty dreadfully about the show all the time. The doomposting never ends.

I understand. I think it is more realizing you are getting older and the show you love isnt that great.

Or getting older and your tastes/interests/expectations changing.

That also lol. I will be honest, Journeys feels as endgame material for Satoshi. Old companions, Satoshi being OP. Maybe it is meant as goodbye to older characters and such?

And yet people say this every gen since 25 years and he's still there XD
I know it does feel this way, but I'm not sure what they would do with Pikachu since he's the mascot. And there's no point to changing MC if he'd still need to have Pika.
Pikachu stays with Ash, and “Ash’s kid” gets “Pikachu’s kid” as it’s starter before embarking on a journey through the Gen9 region.

Fair, but they have to end it someday, sooner (hopefully if I am still alive) or later lol.

I think the best way to "phase" Ash out is if they play into his sibling relationship with Lei. Ash travels with Lei, being his Brock. Lei can start with a Pichu of his own but maybe even evolve his into Alolan Raichu, who knows. Then like Brock, after a few series of Ash traveling with Lei, he leaves.

Of course they would have to age up Ash 10 years for this to happen so not likely at all.
