No. That's what makes ash, ash. The same way Goku always has someone stronger than him to keep interest. Ash's ultimate goal, besides to catch em all, is to beat a league. If he beats it...then what? :O

His ultimate goal is Pokemon Master. Winning a league =/= Pokemon Master.

Well...okay... the general consensus however is, ash needs something to push him. It's typical Japanese Anime fanfare started most popularly by Dragon Ball in the late 80's. Using Dragon Ball as an example, as other series have definietly done this but this is coming off the top of my head, Jackie Chun (Master Roshie), cheats at the Martial Arts World Tournament so child Goku wouldn't get big headed and not lose his drive. It's up to interpretation as always. And at this point, winning a leage after losing them all the time would be a pretty good goal for me.
