>>44037628>Ash's goal itself would have to change.Okay, first of all, this is a common small brained mistake people who don't know what they're talking about keep making. Winning a league was never Ash's main goal. Just another small goal and step towards being a Master. It's been said over nd over again over the years that becoming a Champion is not the same as becmong and Master and also doesn't make you a Master in the first place. So Ash's goal wouldn't change at all. What would change is what he does next to achieve that goal. And what is he doing now? The PWC. That's the change.
Also, the real problem is that people keep focusing on the fight with Gladion when anyone who actually watched SM knows that the match that truly made him acknowledged at the strongest in Alola and the true Champion was his fight with Kukui and then Tapu Koko. That was literally the Champion Match or Title Match under a different name, for obvious reasons, and the climax of the series.
