Ash to be in Elite Four in future game?

If not in the game, it would be interesting seeing him as Gym Leader in the anime. Maybe in a Pokémon series taking place several years after his adventures.

It's a possibility, although I have a hard time seeing the franchise go in that direction at this point. I suppose they could make a Chronicles-like side series (except obviously taking place decades down the line), but considering how recognizable the characters of the main series are now (from Ash, Brock, Pikachu, and Team Rocket to long-lost characters like Misty and Tracey), I don't think they'll completely abandon that in order to start anew.
