Besides, there are several things Ash should do in the anime before we even consider him officially elaving the anime:
- A rematch against Giovanni, leader of Team Rocket.
- Winning the Kanto's League, to compensate the disaster of the very first season.
- Ash challeging the Elite Four and becoming Kanto's champion, just like in the games.
- Finally, if Goh actually catches Mew, then Ash will have to battle and capture Mewtwo.
Yeah, what Goh, a character loved by everyone, really needs, is to claim "his true starter". That will make the entire fandom happy.If Goh catches Mew, it will basically become his Pikachu, could really see the title just being about Goh finally getting his true starter
Before slipping back into itSo he's going to finally wake up from his coma.
regardless of what the future holds, None of these events have to happen since they are opinionated and not factual
Once again, you are just making assumptions based on what you think should happen. There will always be a possibility of Ash leaving until we see other official evidence that he's not just like there's always the possibility he will stay. All the things you listed do not have to occur for him to leave.Wrong!
- For all the story of the anime, Ash never had a direct battle against Team Rocket's leader, until BW. And honestly, it was too short for such an unprecedented time. A rematch is definitely in order, with Ash winning this time.
- Ash's lose at Kanto's League was embarrassing, so I think it has to be compensated. Besides, in Sinnoh it was revealed that to enter in the Champions' League, you have to win the Pokemon League of your homeland. In Ash's case, that's Kanto.
- Ash could have battle Lance in the Pokemon World Coronation Series, but he didn't. I think it's obvious they are saving this battle for another time. Maybe when Ash will battle the Elite 4 of Kanto.
- In order for Ash to truly be "the very best", Ash would definitely have to capture the strongest Pokemon ever: Mewtwo. That would be his ultimate challenge. Besides, considering Ash is probably the only human Mewtwo has truly ever bonded in his life, it doesn't seem to be another option.

Wrong!
How is @Almighty Zard wrong when you explicty say what you think (i.e an opinion) on what Ash's future is?- Ash's lose at Kanto's League was embarrassing, so I think it has to be compensated.
- Ash could have battle Lance in the Pokemon World Coronation Series, but he didn't. I think it's obvious they are saving this battle for another time. Maybe when Ash will battle the Elite 4 of Kanto.
Almost everyone. It must not be forgotten that in the anime we had the Orange Islands which never appeared in JN.A series around all the regions with companions returning and unprecedented continuity isn't a build up?
Need it at all?- A rematch against Giovanni, leader of Team Rocket.
Oh yeah, and bring back all the League dream crushers as well for a rematch for Ash for payback.What Ash needs to do next is become petty and go back to every region, Kanto-Kalos, and challenge the Pokemon Leagues and dominate in every tournament.
Only then, after he becomes champion of all 8 regions and defeat Arceus’ human form will he become The Pokemon Master.What Ash needs to do next is become petty and go back to every region, Kanto-Kalos, and challenge the Pokemon Leagues and dominate in every tournament.
Oh, and also find Tobias, and get revenge.
Take it up a notch and challenge every Trainer he ever lost to without a rematch.What Ash needs to do next is become petty and go back to every region, Kanto-Kalos, and challenge the Pokemon Leagues and dominate in every tournament.
Oh, and also find Tobias, and get revenge.

Satoshi was never interested in beating Team Rocket, so I don't think this rematch makes sense.
I think the BW TR arc? Unless you count him talking to Nanu about (Ultra) Necrozma.Here's a question I add to this, when was the last time we saw Giovanni do anything on screen besides lounging in his office?
that matori woman has done more recently than he has, it almost wouldn't surprise me if an inside civil war happened to take him down rather than Ash doing it, but again that's just an opinion, i will not say it has to go down that way.
Team Rocket may never die in the anime either, that's also possible
Alternate Universe Giovanni that tried to take control of Dialga and Palkia comes to Champion Ash’s universe and kicks off a TRR endgame arc by replacing this universe’s legitimate businessman Giovanni as part of his bid to take over the multi-verse.Here's a question I add to this, when was the last time we saw Giovanni do anything on screen besides lounging in his office?
