Ash is 10 in pokemon Season 1. He's 11 in Season 2.
And 12 in Seasons 3-9. How old is he in the Diamond & Pearl
seasons (Seasons 10-12). What do you guys think?
And is Dawn 10, 11, or 12? I think she's 10 and I also think
that Ash will remain 12 throughout the whole Pokemon anime.
 
In my fanon:
Ash: 15
Misty: 15
Brock: 18
Tracey: 17
May: 11
Max: 9
Dawn: 10
Gary: 15
Paul: 12
 
The characters don't age - officially
Ash, May and Dawn are all 10 and will probably stay so forever

Well in my fanon:

Ash: 14
Misty: 15
Brock: 18
Tracey: 17
May: 14
Max: 9
Dawn: 10-12
Gary: 14
and Paul: 15

What do ya all think?
 
I like the thought of him being 14 at the moment. 15 is a bit too old now. I wonder if they make him a little taller again in the next generation?
 
Agreed. It's a cartoon, and trying to say that Ash has 'aged' X amount of years since Season 1 is simply overthinking things.

He is 10 years old.

Yeah each season is actually a week in their world. It makes sense now!

I didn't say it made sense in terms of our world, but for all intents and purposes of the show...Ash, Dawn, Misty, May are ten years old.

Ash should be a teen by now, but its obvious that he is portrayed in DP as the same age as Dawn.

I was being sarcastic broseph. You can't put logic into something like Pokemon all the time.
 
Correct me if I'm wrong, but practically the only person in the entire franchise that has a confirmed age is Cyrus, at age 27. It'd be kinda nice if they did that with the others though.

Anyhoo.... if ya wanna get picky and estimate the time it takes to travel between each town in each region, it would AT LEAST take a year to go through each region. So, I estimate that Ash could be either 12 or 13 at the most. But, since it's a cartoon and there's no real confirmation out there, he's 10. I also think it's more than likely that Brock is in his late teens.
 
he's 21 X3

I think he is..... around 12-15 now
or, he hasn't aged at all
 
Oh, god, not another one... *grabs head in pain*

I don't know how old Ash is, but he just can't be 10 anymore.
 
As illogical as it is, no matter how many anniversaries they celebrate, even if the show goes on for 50 years, Ash will always been 10 until stated otherwise either on the show or on the official Japanese site.
 
I dunno about Ash, but how's about that Mickey Mouse? He's gotta be at least 80 by now, and as such, I wish Disney would rethink his design, give him crippling back-ache, a zimmer frame and ear-hair growing out of his head circles. And don't tell me there isn't a canon timeline. His past adventures have been referenced enough times as it is dammit!
 
Here's my system:

Each major journey takes about a year, so three completed journies would be three years. Add three months between the first tour of Kanto and the Pokemon league, then another three months for the Orange Islands, then perhaps four months for the second tour of Kanto. That's ten more months. Ash is at least 3/4 through his Sinnoh journey, so that's nine months. Add it all together for a grand total of four years and seven months. If Ash was ten when he started, he should be fourteen now.
