    Ash has seen Jirachi twice. Jirachi only appears every 1000 years. That means he is the age you say plus 2000 years.

    when misty is 80 and on her death bed, ash will still be 10.

      I agree. Looks to be around 8 in that. Even slightly before that he looked younger.
      Before the Unova season his eyes were no more than slits which made him look older (in my opinion). Then they made his eyes bigger with colour which somehow made him look younger... That's how I see it anyway.

      Yeah, I'm trying to think of a theory of why he looks younger (as both Mallow and Lillie are taller than him) however in the first episode of the SM anime, He gets run over bu Tauros and then states "I'm used to it, I've caught a few Tauros myself" So theory debunked.

      He looks younger because of the artists that have taken over for this new series, but it's stated in the game that you have to be at least *11* years old to take on Alola's island challenge
      So after all these years, Ash may have aged at least once, _if_ they're considering that to be canon in the anime

    Or another theory is. The world of Pokémon is an entire new world, developing at an entirely new pace than Earth. This explains why their planet looks different than Earth. It could mean their suns, stars, planets, solar systems, or even galaxies could vary. This could also affect how humans and Pokemon developed over their years journeying. 6 years in our time could be 6 months for Ash. Reverse dog years maybe. This could mean that they said a 'year' in our time Ash has traveled, meaning a month has gone by in Ash's timespan. This would all vary upon their special human and Pokemon evolution expansions over generations. Or you could just blame Dialga. Roar of Time my toilet...

    • @landon2219

    • @youxinask2639
      @youxinask2639 8 лет назад +3

      +Landon Repp Technically it does explain that. They have just lived more of 'their' years. Like I said, a month could be a year in our time depending on their distance from their sun. Those old men, maybe 70, would be 840 years old in our time. Plus in my theory, it all varies on their millenniums of evolution, human and pokemon that have shifted their growth spans. Either way. This theory allows Shippers to have no regrets.

    • @landon2219

      Good luck ever celebrating your birthday on THAT planet.

    I still don't get it. Even if Pokemon was supposed to be targeted at younger audiences, they could've just made him grow up as the audience did.

      @AdobadoFantastico 8 лет назад +3

      I honestly think they lost some viewers because of this. It's basically guaranteeing that the character will lose the subconscious appeal he gains by being close to the viewer's age. I know I definitely stopped watching because I felt like I didn't relate to the character as I approached the age of ~12.

      It's Japan. For the most part, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" is the mentality here (and even in some cases where if it is broke, don't fix it :-P ) Satoshi and Pikachu are the faces of this franchise. If they were going to change him, they should've done so when Gold/Silver came out and then they could've continued "changing" from there to match the protagonist of each game series.
      Satoshi is to Pokemon what Hulk Hogan is to wrestling. Even if you don't know a thing about Pokemon or wrestling, you know these two when you see them.

      Ash as a character has grown rather well albeit slowly considering the timeframe. In the beginning he won the 1st 2nd 4th and 5th badge due to pity or situational events and needed to be coached through the league to succeed. Along with that after losing he pouted for a number of days and refused to even cheer his friend on initially.
      In the next region he tried early on to win using former glories namely Charizard, but looking at the league objectively he also had Bulbasaur and Squirtle put in more than their fair share of work as well. In short Ash no longer needed coaching but he did require strong players
      In the next region Ash notably went along with an entirely new party which went against his stance previously and showed that he's more willing to rely on his own trainer sense. This would be copied in regions to come notably in Unova where he raised 10 pokemon at once showing a major growth from when he could only manage 6 in Houen.

    Dude if the final episode of Pokemon shows grown up Ashe (either as a gym leader or Pokemon league champion) and his wife sending off their son or daughter on their journey to become a Pokemon master at the age of 10... I will cry, and my life will be complete.

      Ash will be 10 forever. You're better off living through Red.

    I like to imagine it like this.
    Kanto to Sinnoh: Everything you say in this section I believe.
    Unova: Ash is dumber in Unova than I was when I was his age so I'd like to imagine him being 10 where he's in a completely different universe. Also, the belongs Charizard to his mom, that's my headcanon at least.
    Kalos: Well Ash is actually smart now so I like to imagine him being 15-16. Hell, all of Ash's companions in the region act older as well, although I still believe that Kalos takes place in a separate universe to the other series.
    Alola: I think it's obvious that this one is in a separate timeline. It's pretty easy to believe he's 11 though.

    My math was off by just a little...the way I figured it, if it takes Ash a year to traverse each region (excluding a few months off the Sevii/Orange Islands and the Decalor Islands) he would be around 17-18...hey, at least I was close

    • @MasterQuestMaster
      @MasterQuestMaster 10 лет назад +12

      Your math was off because you assumed more things than he did. That's a common problem when doing math stuff :D

      ZephyrFlarePaladin34 so ash is 18 and serena is like 10 or 12 and she likes him

    • @SosukeAizenXL
      @SosukeAizenXL 10 лет назад +1

      ASAP Danny she were roughly the same age as Ash during the flashbacks of their past. So Serena would be the same age as Ash currently

    It is SO lame that he is still 10.. they could've had him age normally and replace the protagonist with a younger character and perhaps make Ash an experienced gym leader or traveler..

    Why does Ash not age? In the first episode of the Anime, after Ash and Pikachu both almost get killed by the swarm of Spearows, Ho-Oh flies over their head. It is prophecized that anyone who sees Ho-Oh gets a wish granted and Ash's wish at that time was to stay a kid forever.
    Ty for the likes

      To point out the flaws of this show and why most Pokemon fans mostly play and follow the games because the show is crap. At least Pokemon origins shows Red aging.
