I expecting Ash to take him on to take his spot in the Master Class that’s why they showed Flint’s rank going down a point. I guess you could say foreshadowing

With the current writing team? Good luck.

It's sad how the 'rival' character has goals and motivations that are far more interesting than the character we're actually supposed to be rooting for.

Depends, Gary is catch Mew - research - understand pokemon.
Goh is catch pokemon -
As a fan you can come up with reasons to justify Goh's 'method', but the writers have given it no logical justification in universe.
That said Gary's method only involves actually catching Mew, and I just find the goal of catching all pokemon more interesting. A shame it is so ignored lately.
Pokemon Master originally meant winning the one and only Pokemon League at the Indigo Plateau, then became some obscure goal due to a lack of any actual plan from the creative team and uncertainty over what the games might do.
Ash is never going to say his goal is complete in any circumstance. Becoming the number 1 ranked trainer is as good a place to end the series as we'll ever get.

Where was that said? Nothing like that happened in the anime.

Gary's goal is literally just Goh's goal re-worded, but nice try! (At making my IQ points drop, not at anything else)
It was from the original games, which the anime wasn't going to go past originally. Even if the anime wasn't following that, Ash isn't going to declare himself a Pokemon Master or his dream complete in any situation ever.
Sure sounds like it just meant being the number 1 trainer either way;

Gary just wants to catch Mew so through it, he can understand all Pokémon since it's the ancestor to all.
Goh wants to catch ALL Pokémon and eventually catch Mew.
Goh's goal of catching them all is just not practical in the anime. Gamewise it's fine since for us, it's all just data, but in the anime-universe they are all living creatures with some even being deities or protectors of nature or creatures.
Gary has a more practical method of achieving his research by only catching the one.
Ehh it was a dumb idea to begin with.
Something you’d find in a CW show.
But being the number one trainer must mean more than winning the PWC don't they need to master all region mechanics like z moves and mega evolution and we don't know gen 9 mechanic yet

Goh’s goal ultimately seems to be Mew itself, for which he set out to catch all Pokémon in the world as if it’ll help…somehow. Unlike Gary’s goal to actually use it to further humanity’s understanding of Pokémon, Goh’s motivations just seem shallow and dull in comparison.
