>>22483561>Someone explain to me how this fucker is still 10 years oldThe Pokemon World (PW) is NOT our own world (OW) this is evidenced in the games by several things:
-Season's take one month in some parts of the PW (Unova), this means some crazy stuff goes on with the PW's axis and orbit that doesn't happen with OW
-The ratio of land to sea is different (the ratio is stated by an NPC in either the sea museum or the shipyard, I forget which, in Hoenn)
-In the PW Kalos is directly North of Unova (the maps match up seamlessly even the clouds drawn on them) this is not the case in OW where Southern France is South of where Kalos was based on, not New York.
-Years are longer in the PW than OW, which is why it is considered perfectly ok for a "10 year old" to go off travelling with only an electric mouse that initially hated him.
Because of the difference in year length Ash would be the equivalent of 16-19 in our years. Certainly that makes him an immature twat for his age by our standards but you have to remember that as far as we know he has never attended a school and couldn't leave pallet town on his own until he got a pokemon. The only other boy his age there hates him too. So Ash was bound to have stunted emotional growth. As to why he is still 10 maybe a year hasn't passed in the PW since he started his journey.
