Winner will be the champion of the league, not the region. Literally no one said anything about establishing a permanent champion and Elite Four for Alola region.

Think what you want, but if Satoshi wins the Alola League (which he may very well do), he is going to Galar regardless of previously established 'rules'.I think that the current Champion (the league winner) will be the opponent in the exhibition match of the next Alola League Conference.
Well, while you aren't wrong about the past instances, what makes this case different is the fact that Kukui straight up said that the winner of the Alola League will automatically become the Champion of Alola when he announced the league (and I'm pretty sure that either him or the narator (or both) reiterated this multiple times after that). Meaning that, if Ash were to win this "league", he would become the Pokémon Champion of the Alola Region, meaning that he won't be able to participate in the Galar League. And even if he lost his battle against the Masked Royal (if he wins the league, that is), that won't change anything, since that's an exhibition match, meaning that the outcome of that match won't change the outcome of the league.
I can see Chairman Rose being one of the runners of many of the world Pokemon Leagues.I can see Rose having sponsored the Alola league and together with Kukui planned the tournament. Then before the final match start, Rose advertises the Galar league, Ash gets excited after the league is done and travels to Galar.
Rose is a Chairman who could represent as a Pokemon League inspector or someone in that field, observing first hand the first Alola League.Didn't Lusamine sponsored the whole event?
Wouldn't we already seen him in the league, if that's the case?Rose is a Chairman who could represent as a Pokemon League inspector or someone in that field, observing first hand the first Alola League.
Not until near the end I should think. For now, he is kept in the background observing the whole scene.Wouldn't we already seen him in the league, if that's the case?

Perhaps it'll be a surprise.I don't see it. Even Tobias had foreshadowing before he showed up at the Sinnoh league, so I would think that a character (Rose) who would have more impact on the plot than him would've been foreshadowed by now too.

Ooooh yes please! An open acknowledgement of his past successes would be a wonderful bone to throw us elderly fans and also immediately staunch the inevitable ‘new canon’ arguments!He could briefly reference Satoshi's past achievements in SwSh which is why he'll keep an eye on our hero.
I think that they will still have Pikachu on the show in some form if Ash is replaced.
I wouldn't call mastering a gimmicky power-up "character development".UNPOPULAR OPINION WARNING!
Honestly, I want a new protagonist for Sword and Shield. I feel like Ash has run his course and that it's time for some fresh blood. He hasn't had real character development since XYZ, and that was centered around figuring out Ash-Greninja. A new protagonist would breath new life into the series, I think. Perhaps a studious girl who relies too much on what she's read and her plans, and who collapses under the pressure of an unplanned situation.
Unfortunately, such an idea will realistically never happen, as Ash and his Pikachu are too much of an icon, but mostly Pikachu. Giving a new protagonist a Pikachu would be boring and repetitive, and there's no way they'd lose the face of the franchise. So, sadly, my hope is reduced to a pipe dream.
