but Misty should be OK now cause she's 20 too right?
Kongatron you should be right...wait what about brock? He's like a grandpa now...
Also Serena is good, since they knew each other as kids at Oak's summer camp. Not that I'm starting a shipping war, nobody wants that xD
Hail Whydra um so did matpat just ask tumbler to make child porn?
Ryan Perlish Yes
the only explanation is that humans are also like Pokemons and they have 4 forms. toddler , 10 year old, adult, and grandpa/grandma. so ash will always stay a 10 year old until a certain condition is acquired.
Saito Gaika Why isnt this comment higher up
I've seen this theory! I don't know how much evidence their is for it but I've seen people posit that the people in pokemon "evolve" from baby to young kid to older kid/middle schooler to high schooler to adult to elder. A lot more stages than pokemon but hey. Also kind of fits with the earlier video where humans shared ancestry with pokemon? I'd be interested to see if there was enough basis for them to do a video on it at some point.
I also thought that the Pokémon world is completely different from ours, time works differently, let's say a year is over 1,000 day while still keeping the same rate of aging, thus ash could be much younger then he is in this theroy
Saito Gaika age is connected to passage of time if you're gonna compare stages in human life cycle just remember you can still have unevolved lv 100 magikarp.
What if ask was always at level 100 so he couldn't evolve?
Ash is 20 and hangs out with 10 year old girls...
Brings a new meaning to “gotta catch em all”
Ben Watson ash is like that creepy dude who was like "you know what's best about high school girls? I get older but they stay the same age Ohhh rigggght" lol but middle schoolers
Ben Watson isn't dawn also 20 tho :3
Ben Watson I mean I don't think he even knows what sex is so
Ben Watson wow
Ben Watson wouldn't that make them the same age
The depressing part about the fact that ash is 20 years old at this point is that team rocket spent an entire decade following one guy and his one pikachu, I don’t know whether to feel sad or impressed
Impressed. They are dedicated as hell
I mean, yes, but they probably did some other activities off-camera too.
Take a look at the Ash's dad theory video and you'll understand
TEAM ROCKETS BLASTING OFF AGAIN
Please find the Most High YHWH Elohim!
Please repent and move on for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!
"18 years old and still sleeping alone in a tent with a tweenager" has got to be the most creepy, damning, and chilling thing that I have ever heard said about the main character of a children's cartoon.
Meh nothing new
Ash is 13 years old
At best Ash is
10-Kanto
11-Johto
12-Hoenn
13-Sinnoh
14-Unova
15-Kalos
16-Alola
17-Journeys
You Serena shippers lucked out because is Ash did age that kiss would have been weird.
@@EpicTacoSenpai don’t you mean nothing….mew?
Is it though? Isn't teenager describing the ages of thir *teen* to nine *teen* ? You know, everything that ends with "teen"? If the girls are 16-19...
So one thing is Serena is Ash’s age as they met when they were kids, so she is 19 like Ash or he is 10 like her
Benjamin Alonzo at the end she actually kissed him 😳
I know
Dark Panda I know she did, my point is the theory is wrong due to this factor. Or he didn’t consider Serena is his age
Benjamin Alonzo og my bad I read your comment wrong I thought you said she was 10 and he was 19 😂
Anyways, does anyone think that two *10* year olds fell in love and *KISSED* is weird?
Also, why are they so tall. Isn’t Brock a lot older than Ash but is comparable in height?
Iris: What a kid!
Ash: I'm nearly twice your age.
Lolll
Ha
Unova Ash is different from Ashes from before, I know this is a joke
MatPat: You girls don’t know the half of it
sounds oddly familiar
So... The anime is ending, let's finish the age of our epic hero?
hopefully the new series would make the shippers finally rest after decades
@@paulandrew6867 shippers never rest. Never. They just don't stop.
no the anime ends with episode 136 of journeys
I don't even watch Pokémon I just play all the games but the theory is still pretty cool and interesting
get replaced by 10 or 11 year old kids
Note: While Ash was almost 17 when Dawn started her Pokemon journey at age 10, May met Ash when he was 14, and Misty met him close to the start of the series, meaning Dawn is less than 7 years younger than Ash, May is 4 years younger, and Misty is around the same age as him if not older considering she was already a gym leader when Ash first met her. Please re-adjust your fanart accordingly.
Can we just think about the massive amount of work MatPat did for this and the first episode of this video? He would have had to watch all the Pokemon episodes AND analyse them to find the little details that indicate towards what season it is and not to mention the additional research he did on the Japanese cities that the Pokemon regions are based on. Hats off to you MatPat. You are a legend.
Its pretty amazing
I agree, MatPat deserves more recognition for these amazing episodes
I decided to watch the whole series in august and kept watching every single day since, some days even for hours. Yet, it is january now and i managed to reach sun and moon just a few days ago. It is pretty insane.
@@shadow_shine3578 ita not just pretty amazing, its really amazing
@@rudennings very so
Ya know, if they had kept Ash’s age like you calculated, they could have had a good opportunity of making him more of a mentor figure for the other 10 year old trainers who are following him anyway
That would have worked waaayyy better. They could've made him also, a big brother who is about to graduate, type in his teeenage - young adulthood (15-19 years). To ease the transition. It would be like we are watching him grow up, and it is a bit of a present to all the viewers who watched pokemon, and played the games since they were little. I really like your idea, and it is better than having him restart to the age of 10 with 20 years of memories and experience.
I think that’s what the manga does with its trainers
They would still get shipped tho, Internet is weird
and im pretty sure they dont even need to change his whole deal with being super excited in seeing new pokemon. in fact we as the viewer might see it as ash looking into a different path other than being a trainer like being a researcher or such
I bet Ash still doesn't understand type effectiveness. Making him a mentor will be funny
Before the Journeys series ends and we start the 9th gen, MatPat should do an update as to how old Ash is now since in Journeys we see summer and winter days
Can we have a moment to just appreciate how much work MatPat does to make these videos? Like, he's hunting down videos that ONLY AIRED ON JAPANESE AIRLINES, and figuring out the ripest times for fruits, and watching EVERY VIDEO to see the deerlings, and hunting down EVERY MENTION of a seasonal festival or event, and looking at WEATHER PATTERNS. Like, the DEDICATION is astounding. Keep doing what you're doing, know that we all know and appreciate the hard work you do :)
Also, I have been watching these videos for, like, four days straight - I CANNOT get enough of them, they are what keeps me alive and I love them 🥰
Plot Twist: Ash just shaves every episode off camera.
With mega efficient acne cream
I saw him use Pikachus tail once
2,000,000,000,000
Iq man
What about his voice tho
AND STILL AFTER 11 YEARS
ash still owes misty a bike.
Do you need a bike misty
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
OK OK OK
○ ----- ===\ OOOFFF
Wow
Actually 20 years
I think she’s forgotten at this point
Quick fact,in one point misty talks about marrying ash,idk what episode,but she talks about it 🤣
What if Ash actually has a disease that prevents his body from aging past 10 years old?
Intresting?
That disease is called "being killed by Mew and Mewtwo just over a year into his journey and coming back wrong"
is Ash the Highlander of Pokémon ?
I think conditions that prevent/slow physical aging don't affect mental age. So would have to have both.
@@lunaitcor its called “seeing a ho-oh in the sky wich can make you stay the same age”
Nice Video! Appreciate that huge amount of research!
Here is a thought, what if each Pokemon season was made in different dimensions with many things in common.
That might change things.
What if ash is like a nurse Joy. Cloned with the same memories
Why would anyone wanna clone ash??
@@tomasfavetto5040 well he does happen to know pretty much every legendary pokemon...
Its really suprising to me that you mini theory being so great still has so less likes it should be crossing like 10k
Well maybe Ash himself is the only one with the ability to meet any Legendary, also if that was true then why some seasons continue the adventures of some clones? If it was to save Legendaries they could send one clone to each region when the times was right.
@@gabrielhernanizaguirre383 maybe its a different clone and they just give them past memories
I love watching your videos because it’s like talking to someone who also has watched every single episode multiple times and loves it and that’s so hard to find in real life
You won me over at 0:44 😂!!
I really appreciate (and recognize/commend) all the effort you put into this video (and your others)! I stumbled across them by accident and am hooked.
lets ignore his age and consider the fact that team rocket is still after pikachu after 10 years of failing to catch him
Fool me once shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
**Flashback to every episode**
@@ferociousmaliciousghost *fool me once, shame on you. Fool me 1020 times, shame on me.
That's what I call commitment
They are _determined_ to catch pikachu
Get it? Undertale reference
We should learn their determination
Not many people in here talking about the wish he made on a Ho-Ho at the start of his first journey. The wish that his journey would never end. He isn't aging at all. Perpetually 10 years old.
MIND BLOWN 💥
Well his journey does involve catching EVERY Pokémon out there and they number in hundreds to maybe thousands and he wants to be at his best to do so
well that wont explain why misty didnt age either as she was same age in kanto and alola. She never asked the wish that her journey never end.
@@winningstreak114 His wish could easily extend to his companions as well considering they're an integral part of his journey and it's enjoyment.
@@winningstreak114 Exacttly what I thought and so as brock and ash’s mom

But how old is pikachu?
Matpat: *hold my diet coke*
The comic turtle you mean hold his diet coke lol
Both of you majer LOL
Actually he would say hold my diet coke not sponsored
Ash n pikachu have been together for 10 years(according to video) n we don't know when he was born so lets say 10 xD
Paawan Kataria
Wow, pikachu was a mean baby.
Salute of respect you you Matpat and the theorist team for doing such extensive and exhaustive research for this. I watched this video when it was fairly new and just had to come back to it again.
I'm honestly shocked that the anime has such a consistent progression of seasons that MatPat can actually follow the day/night cycle and seasonal produce. I feel like most shows wouldn't even get the Deerling formes right.
And yes, obviously the canon age means that Ash has indeed remained 10 years old for 10 years and counting.
How old is Ash?
Too old to only hang out with 10 year olds.

Fu** off you imposter
The Game Theorists Giveaway I do not trust you at all
20yrs old.. hangs out with 10yr olds... Anime logic
Ash, have a seat over there.
ur a fu**ing scam go away now

**too focused on how weird Ash looks in Sun and Moon**
me too
TRUE! XD
YAS FINALLY SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS
I hated it so much at first. Then watched all the episodes so far and it went away. Totally used to the new look now and it doesn’t bother me anymore haha. But I know where you’re coming from
It is his Alolan form.

OOF
"When is the weather man ever right"
So the pokemon show has a bit of reality in it XD
14:33 Mom: has Quintuplets
That one kid, who was somehow born a minute after the quintuplets:
I think the Sun and Moon Ash is actually a Ditto that has been creeping on them the entire time, and takes over Ash's life in a 10 year old form.
Wouldn't be too surprising, as there was a scenario that was played out that way in the Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon games. The police pretty much asks for your help to find them all, and catch them so they can stop taking over spots from other people they are impersonating.
Though at Kukui's School you have to be at least 11
thats why sun + moon ash looks way different then the other 6...
My theory is that ash has dedicated his life so much to becoming a Pokémon master, that he forgets his age and calls himself 10
It is polsible
the narrator said he's ten but we all know he is lucky to have never had acne, ever
yea hes maybe dont age beacause mowth sed we messed with space time contineuim
Yea
or it's possible that he was never properly taught how it works, and still sets himself at 10
We need an update of this theory😤
For the first 4 generations I’d say those ages make sense until he goes to school at age 20
ash : *is 18*
also ash : *is shorter than a 10 year old*
exactly that's quackity levels of short

And yet it tells that Ash is 10 years old in Pokemon journeys.
Honesty, I’m surprised at you. You’ve gone into the fact that ash hasn’t seemed to age a bit, yet the funny thing is…
No one else seems to be aging either. Seriously, misty and Brock don’t change, dawn and may don’t change.
The only ones in the show that actually change at all are the Pokémon when they evolve.

GabeN_____ Studio
Being a Pokémon trainer is like being a 18 year old drafted to nam right???!
Ho-Oh is said to grant you happiness if you ever run into one in the wild; when Ash first saw Ho-Oh, it was glowing gold rather than displaying it's usual rainbow plumage. Therein, Ash's wish to have an eternal adventure was granted by Ho-Oh (As, at the time, that's like the only thing that would've made him happy).
But do the others age or not?
@@dan1han1 I'm pretty sure Misty and ash's other campanions age just not Ash because Ash was the only one that saw ho-oh
Kinda weird how the anime included a Pokémon who at that point wasn’t part of the games yet
Proof of this theory is that ash only stops aging after he sees ho-oh as we see him as a little kid in professor oaks camp with Serena but still it is a little confusing hopefully their will be more evidence to improve the theory
naaah i think he is in coma after the bike crash..
and hooh granted his wish through dream..
bit weird someone like him manage to witness all legendary to mythical pokemon in his lifetime..
16:08 ash: *I haven’t changed have i*
Thanks a lot for all the research
I bet this kid has a magical portrait of himself hidden away somewhere, so then the portrait ages instead of him...
Is that a Dorian Gray reference?

Defeats a billion pros and champions and still fights team rocket after 10 years without stopping...
Ash: I want to be a Pokemon master!🤔🤔🤔
Patrick Dinh i was thinking that too untill i realized a pokemon master would have to know about every single pokemon the world has to offer at least imo
Patrick Dinh yet he never wins a league and hasn't caught all 700 pokemon.
None of the other Pokemon master's have caught all 700 pokemon either, unless Archeus and Mew are hackable in the show too :P
Patrick Dinh Yeah because he want to give butthurt to them

I’m impressed by the continuity of this show. Maintaining a consistent timeline over the course of 20 seasons is impressive.

BEACAUSE MATPAT IS AMAZING!
because he has no life
that means, by following your rule of dividing your age by 2 and adding 7, that means that if a 14 year old dates a 13 year old that is how you described it, "icky'' because 14/2+7=14
Me saving this to my music playlist just for the intro: yes
He's from a cloning experiment. Professor Oak has tanks upon tanks of clones in his basement and the memories get loaded into each new one.

AlphaMonster Infinity Blade: Ash Ketchum
I feel like this took longer to come out because of opening song.
the intro is amazing lol
Looks like by the End of Pokemon Journey’s Ash turns 21-22
Dermatologists hate him
PLOT TWIST! The Pokémon universe has 60 seasons in a year. So ash is still 10, Misty is still 12, and Brock is still a creepy 18 year old guy that can’t find love
Or the seasons last less in their timeline so in one year there would be double the months.
Shaliababa 88 wait, it’s confirmed that Brock and Misty were those ages to start?
Fragmented R Misty was confirmed to be 10, actually, at the start. Having 3 older sisters. Brock is 15 at the start. Making her 20, or 21 depending on her birthday, and making Brock 25 or 26.
Fragmented R I read misty was 12 and I made up Brocks age just cuz he has a million siblings
eh no. just imagine that each episode is a day, which is very, very considerate because there are sooo many off seen days or just gap of time between episodes and also, some episodes take more than a day, it would be at least 12, because the amount of pokemon episode is a lot more than days on a year
My one complaint for this theory is MatPat just disregarding the explicit message from the Pokémon Company that Sun & Moon doesn't follow X & Y. I understand the desire to keep things in a single canon, but there are other explanations that allow for the creator's statement to be true, such as multiple canons. The scenes with Brock and Misty's flashbacks are just reintroducing those events to the new canon. At a glance, it seems like Sun & Moon is intended to follow Johto Journey's.
If you look at ashes self in the first episode of Journeys that pretty much contradict the entire statement
Ash met both Serena and Lillie in Pokémon journeys. What do you have to say now?
I haven't watch the Sinnoh series, so I couldn't say for certain. However, I wanted to add that it snows in and around snowpoint city (according the games, and I know that we aren't talking about the games, but I think it's an important point) because of the snow blowing down from the mountain. Bulbapedia states: "Snowpoint City (Japanese: キッサキシティ Kissaki City) is a snow-covered city located at the far north of Sinnoh, where snow blows down from the top of Mt. Coronet causing low temperatures." So to assume winter and jumping from summer to the summer might be adding an entire year to the sinnoh arc without it being there.

Now... The real question is, how old is Pikachu?
Matpat: *Dies*
If he was with Ash all that time he's the 10 years they journey together + however long he was alive before that
from matpat's research, ash was 10 when he started, matpat calculated ash's current age as about 19yrs and 6mths so pikachu would be about 9yrs and 6mths old.
Pikachu was not born on the day that ash got him numbnuts...

Well matpat, wanna make him older?
serena has memories of ash when they where just kids at the summer camp, so doesn’t that make them the same age

What if serena’s birthday was The day after trainers in the calose region get their Pokémon. Meaning she would have been 11 the day after she received fenikin. Meaning Serena would have been 2 during camp if it took place between may 22 and March 31
It doesn't makes sense since the two looked around the same age when they were little
Pokemon Fan: *CAN YOU AGE ALREADY!!!!!!*
Ash:
I don't think I will
Hey it Grampa America
It looked as if he got younger.
You just bought up memories waking up at 6:30 every weekend get ready and eat breakfast my mom will be so surprised all to watch pokemon
i am curious what matpat thinks of the theories of why ash doesn't physically or mentally change, like the ho-oh eternal happiness one or the one about mewtwo turning his body to stone for that bit of time in the movie.
