I agree

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

ash is really a tardigrade
ash is and will always be 10 years old.
when misty is 80 and on her death bed, ash will still be 10.
she'll gesture him close and whisper in his ear
"you still owe me a bike"
Your comment is hilarious! "You still owe me a bike." xD
he owes 3 girls a bike XD
he really needs to get his own bike at this point.
Nintendo has a bike fetish
lol
What if he was dreaming and at the end of the anime is him waking up and starting his journey
@Jar In A Bottle actually Pokémon would have been a very dark show if you read takeshi shudos beliefs and ideas
If that was the case, I would feel like my whole life was a lie.

any chance we can get an updated version of this? i remember watching years ago and i’d love to see how old ash would actually be in pokémon journeys
I bet he will be atleast 20
See game theory’s how old is ash Ketchum
Nah in pokemon journeys a reporter said "these 10 year olds"
@@ezraora4549 yeah but i’m saying imagine how old ash would be in journeys if he aged normally. i think he’d probably be anywhere between 24 and 32 or something
That same Game Theory denouncing Mario in favor of Bowser, grossly underestimated Sonic’s speed, and got COUNTLESS things wrong about knights, vikings, and samurai? No thanks!
Can’t believe you have been doing this for over a decade now. I remember discovering you in 2016 as an eleven year old and binging you content. Now as an “adult” and seeing all you have done for me and the community, you have my respect for that!

Hello friendo
when i first watched pokemon i thought it was ash ketchup

Tom Ato anyone remember that from the first season ever
If Ash is still ten then he lived in an iceberg
I really want an updated version of this wow
So Ash is Peter Pan...
😊😊😊😊
Nyeeeeeass
Lol
Kyle Shea Yes, and pokemon world is Never NEver Land
Kyle Shea you got that right
And then Sun and Moon came out and made him EVEN YOUNGER.
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.
I guess that was before??
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.
Faking right m8
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
This is how I imaged Ash
Kanto - 10
Johto - 10.5
Hoenn - 11
Sinnoh - 11.5
Unova - 12
Kalos- 12.5
So it's pretty much gonna be this way because he looks like he's getting older anywa-
*Sun&Moon*
OH MY GOODNESS!!!
and galar too
when he turned 13 he turned into Benjamin Button
Sounds Acc...Master Journeys. WTH?
Sun and Moon - 5
Pokemon Journeys - 7
Kanto alone acknowledges more than a year passed. Pokemon has weird logic.
"The writers wouldn't put in something that dark."
Me" sabrina, N, dark chateau and ghost girl flashbacks" shivers.
What if the blast from the battle between Mew and Mewtwo that turned Ash into a stone has stopped aging him for the last like 20 years?
Carl Johnson weird flex, but ok (dead meme)
@@1AceTM uh
Good point
Or arceus decided to make ash stay 10 years old when he became a trainer.
@@Herobrine100x Do you mean ho - oh

No in his teens. His voice got deeper and his height is 165cm

So you screamed at the top of your lungs
Ash: Takes more than 1 year to complete a region
Us: 45 minutes later welp let's wait for the next game
Pokemon223 Pichu lel
Accept for Gold and Silver, that'd be an hour and 30 mins, because there are two regions

New video up tomorrow morning!
And don't forget to ask me questions on my Ask Me Anything video, if you haven't! /watch?v=NCCZ8p6tgEU&list=UUSAYHSNaY5_UEol4_frPurg
I am currently 11 turning 12 in a couple of months but I have watched the show since the age of 6 and I have love the show ever since and it will remain in a place in my heart for the rest of my life
Wait. I am seventeen and 6 feet 3 inches (dammit imperial system). So this would mean I am as Big as a Dragonite? Man, they would call me a Giant.
EDIT: Looked it up in metric, I am smaller than Dragonite. But still i would be motherf***ing big compared to the rest there.
In the 1st movie ash turns to stone but then reived by crying pokemon, maybe the stone stopped him from ageing?
bady boy What about Brock?
***** I talked about the Rocks stoped his aging thing. As I remember, Brock wasn't rocking anything
I didn't realize how old this vid was until I saw 2010 on the chart at the end
My theory, every episode is one whole second in the Pokémon universe, every time they reference a year going by or time in general is just the characters attempting and failing to try and pretend like they know the time the audience experience. It makes sense to me but at the same time Ive been up since two days ago so honestly anything goes rn
its not my fault I look so young.
*OH HELL NO*
you look younger now than you used to.... what happened to the savage, cool, death defying, battling with fully evolved, girl lover you?
Are u my trainer cough I mean pika pika
Gary was here. Ash is a loser.
@@Megadeth7811 BOO!!!!!!
Hey, at least we don't have to see the Ash Ketchum puberty special episode
O_o
end of an era ❤️👍
To do the Island Challanges in Alola, you HAVE to be 11 years.
Theoretically, Ash should be 11 to do them. But that's just a random thought to think about.
A person who thinks all the time has nothing to think about except thoughts
That's in the games. It wasn't a thing in the anime. Separating different canons is important for theorymonning.
@@gengarzilla1685When we have no defined answer from the anime, we can use the games as a source instead. Does that not make sense?

Ash Catch 'em
I love this 7 year old video, because it literally uses Ash is short as an argument and honestly, kids, follow your dreams, whether you succeed or not is 100% random chance
You guys got it all wrong he’s playing on an emulator and has 16x speed on
Good one haha
I think the last episode should be about Ash's 11th birthday. He should invite all his previous traveling partners, pokemon, rivals and even Jessie, James and Meowth. Then Ho-Oh should appear one more time and the episode should end with everyone smiling while staring at Ho-Oh.
In your dreams maybe the writers wouldnt even attempt to do that.
Yeah, Pokemon never dying off, new pokemon that get less and less creative and more and more difficult to pronounce, Ash always being ten, and the original creator passing away.
update pokemon xy the writters says ash is 14 now
When did they say that? which episode or show me some evidence.
THATS DARK AF
Not gonna lie, I'd really like to see Pokemon grow the main characters up..And have a new generation of kids going on new adventures :/ Ashe would be a gym leader I bet
Yeah, I feel like a TV version of the manga would be really cool to watch
MandJTV Pokevids That would be a gory show if I'm correct about it's reputation
***** i agree after misty left pokemon went downhill and when brock left it was a wrap although i did like cilan
Naw he'd be Pokémon master! :D
ocachisu How do you define a 'Pokemon Master' as a job though? Sounds like he's just trying to avoid any responsibillities as a grown up
"I'm a Pokemon Master! I can't have a job! Pokemon is my job!"
“Is he still 10?”
Me:no he’s 4 years old due to Celebi changing time to make Pokemon Camps and that you can be 3 years or older
He is still 10, the entirety of the series takes place within one year-on the finale of the Pokemon anime, it will be canon that Ash now turned 11
_FEAR MY CORRECTNESS_
nope as when he returns to viridan city he says it has been a year since he was last there
maybe he ate an everstone
ichmagreis69 true true
XD GOOD ONE
Nice one! 😂😂😂
+ichmagreis69 EVERTONE?"
you know in pokemon havelike these stone there is
1. firestone
2.thunder stone
3. waterstone
and 4. everstone
everstonecan make pokemon stay in teir form forever
but those are not only the stone in pokemon there is stil lmore
I have my own theory.
He is Asian and therefore Forever Young, also he's too lazy to update his Pokémon license
Thank you
Aw thanks
lol
that explains why im 14 and i still look like an 8 year old. Thanks Asia!
I'm asian and that does not explain why I already have a growing stubble on 7 th Grade and was more mature about the world than everyone else was.
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
Tell me you didn't watch the video without telling me. 2:32
There’s something I’ve notice that a lot of theorists, not you, haven’t accounted for in these ash age theories. The fact that no one else ages either! Think about it, every time a character reappears, they always look almost exactly the same as they did when they first appeared with a small redesign to fit the new series. Misty and Brock reappear in Sun and Moon, and despite a tiny clothing change for Brock, they look exactly the same besides the slight redesign (but that’s just the art style of the series). And look at ash’s mom! She appears in every series! And she looks nearly exactly the same! Everyone needs to start paying attention to everyone else’s ages as well!
Lei actually did age :0 Burnett went from not even pregnant to having birthed a some odd monthed baby from the end of Alola to Ash’s return to Alola in Journey’s.
ho-oh theory makes a ton of sense
I agree
+Dragon type shiny Lucario Ha ha Slow clap
true but how ?
Agreed
Very true
damn they walk for a year. large muscled legs???
Never skip dat derr leg day. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
dos thou even hoist
I had leg day today.... feels gr8
@A Wandering Artist doth*, but you made me laugh.
Can't spell legendary without leg day ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
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.
I feel like Ash just accidentally ate an everstone once
Answer is simple
10

HAPPY 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY TO THIS VIDEO MANJTV
Even after all these year amazing videos like this are still recommended
Well, I always assumed Ash was one of those people that doesn't get very tall as they age, so if he has 16-17 years old that would make sense.
so midget ash :3
yourallygod gaming Nah, some people just don't grow up their bodies that much.
Hormones, probably.
Metalders yea ik im just saying he's an old person but is a midget :3 really thats what it is heh
yourallygod gaming I don't consider him a "midget", just a short person.
Remember "Short Round" from Indiana Jones? :3
Metalders i think i do
I think They should make a series with red instead of ash. Then later red meets up with Ethan. Than they both meet up with Brendan. Then they meet up with Lucas. Then hilbert. Then nate.
I think it would be kinda cool.
Pokemon Origins.
There ya go, RED.
Blamhammer but its only 4 episodes, and they cut out major moments, like all the gym battles and the elite 4 battles.
hokage1997 Think its cause no one cares about Red, these kids grew up with Ash not Red.
hokage1997 There's a manga...
***** lol i know
Looking back at his old videos is so nostalgic just look at the intro
HE GETS YOUNGER ALMOST EVERY SERIES NOW

I remember when I was 10 I thought Pokémon were real and that they were just an undiscovered species I:
...
I also thought one day I would meet Ash...
I always thought Pokemon were real and I have been playing since I was 5. Man those days were great my brother helped me but now I'm 12 and I have to play the game all by my self but I feel proud. I will always love Pokemon I even want to be buried with all my games. That might sound weird but I don't care.
*Wipes tear away* That was beautiful ;-;

Keep going
This video needs to be revisited
Logically if in 1997 , his first appearance was 10 years old , he seems was born in 1987 ...
So now in 2020 , he is mathematically 33 years old !

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.
I would absolutely love to see the series end like that

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

I'm 31 and just got Pokemon Go. The people I met vary from 12 till in their thirties. So even if Ash was like 100 nobody gives a fuck. It's about playing the game!

Tell us the real reason why you are still 10!
Chanchai Vue Because logic. Screw it.
Oh rrrrrrrrrreally?
I completely accept this. Don't care what the writers say.
And if they want to keep the main protagonist the same age, CHANGE THE MAIN PROTAGONIST. Like, damn, it's not that hard. You can still keep Ash around and follow a lot of his travels
They experimented with Chronicles it didn't work as much hate as Ash gets new generations love him and the old have nothing better to do than keep watching him
I loved chronicles, though. Ah, people are dumb. -pouts in a corner-
hanon623 Chronicles?
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.
It's not like Ash is this a super awesome protagonist, they could create a better protagonist for the show easily.
This video was how I discovered MandJTV.
Why is this in my recommendations? It's literally been 10 years, I've already watched it and I've been subscribed for almost as long. UA-cam works in mysterious ways...

I love how people watch this 7 years later

He's Asian. He don't age. He can be 50 and still look 10.
I bet, if he was in Family Guy.
Mr. Herbert would love Ash.

I'm Asian and I can confirm that I haven't aged much in the last 10 years...
im from holland and I confirm that chinese are the most tiny things I have seen in my live also I claim gayneek to be gay because he calls himself a gay
You are correct sir. A few months ago, I was on a cruise and tried to get into the club on the ship. I forgot my ID in my room and the guard at the front wouldn't let me in, even though I told him i was 24. I later found out that the fucking club was 18+. That really pissed me off.
lol Herbert is so weird.
The only guy who hasn't lost his job after 16 years = The Narrator
XD thats right how old is he? XD
I don't know.
The narrator is Ash from a alternate dimention
Actually, Giovanni has the same voice, too! And, Professor Oak's old voice is now Professor Cedric Juniper's.
I used to watch this man back when I was like 9 or 10, now I'm 17 and rediscovering this man. I love it
The only way that ash could still be a ten year old is if every new show is one month
