Should Ash have been retired sooner?

As much as we like Ash, every character has limits when it comes to how long they can grow and stay relevant. Nowadays, we're finally saying goodbye to Ash as Liko and Roy take center stage.

Does anyone think they could have done the torch-passing sooner? I heard that they were originally going to replace him for the Black and White season, but they had no faith in the new main character.

    Yes, he should have been retired after DP and Hilda should have replaced him.

    Ash could've been retired at the end of XY, but now was probably the better time to do it.
