You might disagree with it, but it is what it is. In the next section, we are going to try and explain why that is. Sure, there are some unofficial calculations that speak of him being roughly 17 years old, but this is not official and is a mere assumption, as Ash has been officially confirmed to be 10 years old.
In the following paragraphs, we are going to give you some possible explanations for this phenomenon. Ash Ketchum was indeed ten years old when he started, but he is ageless — since the beginning of the show until now, Ash has become an icon, a legend, like Mickey Mouse. The dub mentioned this in In The Shadow of Zekrom! One of the more common facts used in support of this theory is that Ash and May are said to be the same age when May begins their journey, although Ash had traveled two regions and competed in three leagues before encountering May.
Many of Ash's first Gym Badges were given to him merely out of gratitude for his assistance, rather than claiming an actual victory in battle over the Gym Leaders.
Ash's troubles were not made any easier when his Charmander, after evolving into a Charmeleon, and then a Charizard, grew too powerful and refused to listen to him until Ash could prove himself. Over time, Ash's dedication to his goal paid off. After earning his first eight Badges, Ash went on to compete in the Indigo Plateau Conference , advancing to the fifth round - one further than Gary - and ending up in the Top 16, his defeat coming in the form of his Charizard refusing to battle for him.
Ash caught the Lapras during this time. Before leaving the Orange Archipelago, Ash managed to find his Lapras's pod and released it back into the wild. After his victory in the Orange League, Ash encountered Gary again, and after being defeated in a one-on-one battle, he learned that his rival had been training hard to participate in the Silver Conference in Johto. He lost in the final round to Ephraim 's Skiploom.
He was defeated by Misty in a 3-on-3; Misty ended up losing in the next round. Ash, along with Ritchie , then helped save Silver , a child Lugia , and its parent, from the evil machinations of Team Rocket. Ash encountered Gary occasionally in Johto, and, while they were still rivals, Gary seemed to view Ash with slightly more respect than before. Finally, the two rivals battled in the tournament in a Full Battle. After the battle, Gary and Ash departed on good terms with each other, finally overcoming their boyhood animosity and recognizing each other as equals.
Ash's journey through Kanto and Johto came to an end when he was forced to split up with Brock and Misty when the two of them received messages to return home. After hearing about a distant region called Hoenn from Harrison , the opponent he lost to in the Silver Conference, Ash decided to journey there and take only Pikachu with him this time. In Hoenn, Ash met a girl named May and her brother, Max , who he later learned were Petalburg Gym Leader Norman 's children, and both of whom decided to join Ash on his travels.
Shortly after the three companions left Petalburg City , Brock rejoined the group when he saved them from a flock of angry Taillow and their leader. From that point onward, Ash journeyed through Hoenn with one old friend and two new friends, collecting Gym Badges in much the same fashion as before. Once May set her sights on becoming a Top Coordinator , Ash supported her whenever he could while maintaining his focus on winning Badges.
During these journeys, Ash and his friends ended up being entwined in the plots of the region's two rivaling villainous teams , Team Aqua and Team Magma , with Pikachu actually getting possessed by Groudon in the summit of their conflict. Thanks to Team Rocket 's unintentional help, they helped save the entire Hoenn region. While Ash had no major recurring rival in Hoenn, he did encounter certain Trainers multiple times and formed friendly rivalries with them.
One such friend was Morrison , who was very similar to and just as competitive as Ash and was first introduced close to the end of the group's travels in Hoenn. Just like the Indigo Plateau and Silver Conferences, Ash did not win the Ever Grande Conference , but he came very close before losing to Tyson , who went on to win the tournament. He decided to take on the Battle Frontier and was surprised but happy to learn that Brock, May, and Max would join him on this adventure as well.
Like before, he took only Pikachu with him at first but brought his Aipom along when she snuck onto the ship Ash was leaving on. While Brock did not directly accompany Ash to Sinnoh, he did meet with him while there and traveled with him through Sinnoh as he had for Kanto, Johto, and Hoenn.
Ash enthusiastically supported Dawn in her endeavors to become a Top Coordinator. Unlike May, he watched all of Dawn's Contests without being distracted by the need to train. Just as he supported Dawn in her Contests, she supported him in his Gym battles. While traveling through Sinnoh, Ash formed a heated rivalry with a Trainer named Paul. Throughout Ash's journey, Paul would constantly put him down and the two often argued over their nearly opposite training styles.
Their rivalry came to a head after they competed in a Tag Battle Tournament together, when Paul released his Chimchar after it failed to meet his expectations. Ash recognized that he had to take Paul more seriously and cautiously in the future.
As Ash and his friends journeyed through Sinnoh, they ended up becoming heavily involved with legends of Sinnoh, with Ash being personally chosen by Azelf of the lake guardians. Thanks to their efforts, the Sinnoh region was spared from Cyrus 's insane scheme. During his battles in the Lily of the Valley Conference , he managed to advance to the Top 4. This caused Paul to finally acknowledge Ash as a Trainer of some merit, thus ending their arguments. Ash later fought against Tobias , becoming the only known Trainer to defeat his Darkrai.
In Unova, he brought along only his Pikachu as he did in Hoenn. After Ash earns their interest by telling Iris of his encounter with Zekrom and battling Cilan for the Trio Badge, the three decide to travel together.
Despite battling quite well, Ash failed to win any of the tournaments and managed to be the runner-up of two of the three.
Despite these mishaps, he was not upset to see his friends win the competitions instead of him. As they journeyed, Ash and friends ended up again being caught up in Team Rocket's new plot, which was personally being supervised by Giovanni. This time, Team Rocket planned to take over the world using a Meloetta that Ash befriended to unleash the power of the Forces of Nature. After managing to obtain eight Unova Gym Badges, Ash was allowed to participate in the Vertress Conference along with his current and some new rivals.
In the preliminary round, Ash battled Trip one-on-one, defeating him for the first time and ending their rivalry. Ash also defeated his friend and rival, Stephan , in the tournament.
After the Conference, the three friends decided to check out some ruins that Professor Juniper 's father, Cedric Juniper discovered, and on the way, they met with a strange young man named N. They soon became entwined in the plots of Ghetsis , Colress , and Team Plasma as they sought to take over the world using Reshiram 's power.
As their adventures started coming to a close, Ash and his friends decided to take the long way back to Kanto by sailing on a series of luxury liners through a chain of islands called the Decolore Islands. Soon after they reach Kanto, Ash split up with Iris and Cilan, who wished to go in separate directions to follow their dreams. He was forcibly ejected from the tower when the computerized security system, later revealed to be the Clembot , found out that he didn't have any Kalos Badges.
He was rescued by Clemont and Bonnie. Froakie then allowed itself to be captured by Ash, and Clemont and Bonnie started to travel with Ash. The group was joined by Serena, who still remembered Ash rescuing her in her childhood and decided to start her journey to reunite with him, although he initially did not remember the two of them meeting.
They help Clemont face Clembot, and after the issue was resolved, the two boys promised to battle after Ash fulfilled the original conditions set by Clembot even if it was no longer necessary , to earn four Badges. With that, the group set off on their journey again.
During their travels, they occasionally met the ninja boy Sanpei , whose presence always led to progress in Froakie's and later Frogadier 's and Greninja 's strength. During their journey, Ash caught a lost and traumatized Goomy , which he raised into a Sliggoo , and later, a powerful Goodra. Later, Ash and friends came across Goodra's old home , where they discovered it was taken over by a Florges and her companions.
Some time afterward, when Ash reached Laverre City to challenge the Gym , he made a new rival in Sawyer , a novice trainer hailing from Hoenn. Along the way, Ash would also support Serena in her quest to become Kalos Queen and gave her some helpful advice when she eventually lost, telling her that losing is simply another step towards victory.
She revealed his Frogadier's past as a Froakie from before meeting Ash and a glimpse of Frogadier's, his friend's, Sycamore's, Team Rocket's, and his fate, indicating that they would all play a vital role in Kalos's future. Ash challenged her to a Double Battle , which he won using Frogadier and Talonflame.
Some time afterward, Ash and his friends got involved in a conflict in Sanpei's hometown , which led to Frogadier evolving into Greninja, as well as achieving Bond Phenomenon for the first time. During another confrontation with Team Flare in Terminus Cave , Ash learned Bond Phenomenon came at a cost, as he was able to share Greninja's senses, but also share its pain. Ash put up a decent fight but eventually lost. After his loss against Alain, Ash and Greninja began training to perfect Greninja's new form.
Ash and Greninja later had a rematch with Alain and a battle against Diantha, during the latter Greninja even managed to reach its final Ash-Greninja form.
Despite their training, the two were unsuccessful to master the transformation as Ash passed out during both battles from exhaustion from using the form. After losing a rematch with Sawyer, in which Greninja even failed to transform, Ash began feeling doubtful of his ability to master the transformation. His confidence was shaken further after brutally losing to Wulfric , the Snowbelle Gym Leader. After seeing how badly Greninja got hurt during their battle and blaming himself for the loss, a depressed Ash left into the Winding Woods by himself.
After an argument with Serena, Ash was able to get back to his old self. He later met up with Greninja, and while trying to save a wild Spewpa , the two were able to perfect Bond Phenomenon. With Greninja's Ash-Greninja form perfected, Ash was able to defeat Wulfric in a rematch, earning him his final Kalos Gym Badge and qualifying him for participation in the Lumiose Conference. Following several notable victories, Ash had Goodra rejoin his team for his semi-final battle against Sawyer.
On the night before the final battle, he and his friends learned more about the Ash-Greninja transformation. Ash showed great sincerity and principle following the battle, shaking Alain's hand regardless of the result. During the closing ceremony of the conference, Team Flare began their final operation, using the power of the blue Zygarde Core Z2 to cause massive roots to destroy parts of Lumiose City. However, upon hearing Pikachu's voice, Ash resisted the machine's influence, even getting Greninja to do the same thing.
After talking some sense into Alain, Ash and Greninja broke free from their bindings by using Bond Phenomenon.
At the start of the XY series Ash is 16 years old. XY is initially set in late spring. Later, the episodes of the Summer Camp demonstrated the summer season. It takes the name from the Leonids shower, which always falls in November intentionally coinciding with the Ruby and Sapphire games release, reference also mentioned in OR AS. The same XY episode aired in Japan during November. Anyway if you are continuing to follow it , you must always take into account the instructions provided in this article.
Try to differentiate the real Ash that we all know and whose growth is evident for all of us from the purely commercial reboots. Her knowledge about the main character, Ash Ketchum is really vast. Hiding 3 comments I have no clue if it can, but Dialga control time so I like Palkia the best. StichxAngel4eva posted over a year ago. Actually Giratina StichxAngel4eva posted over a year ago. That answers it. Slow progressive anime, like Hayate no Gotoku! This is true.
He's always been freakin' XD 1Amberpet posted over a year ago. It doesn't make any sense for him to be ten still!! Maybe he said that because he doesn't want to admit him growing up? I'm 22 but I feel like I'm still 14, 15 or XD dcanimefreak posted over a year ago. Also assuming each movie represents about 3dys, with 15 movies multiplied by 3dys it equals 45dys represented. So add that to your original dys, and your total dys represented is dys.
There are Ash Ketchum turned 10yrs old on the first episode of the series which would technically make him There you go. He's atleast years old now. Pokemon came out in It is now. Ash was 10 when he started. Numbers don't lie and these numbers say that Mr.
Ketchum is 32 years old. Yes this is a logical answer. Numbers are perfect and they don't lie. According to calculations Mr Ash Ketchum is 33 because it is I vote this as the best answer. Gliscor said: I would have to say he look 13 years old compaired to Dawn and Brock in Sinnoh.
