>>35446054This would involve a floating timeline, something that a lot of random shows have. Does pokemon have a floating timeline? It would be difficult to prove if it has. You would have to be able to say that the year has changed, but nobody ages. As far as I know, indeed, nobody ages in the anime. Has a year passed? The only instance I know this was addressed was in the Pichu Bros. short, and yes, it was stated in Japanese. So, yes, the evidence exists for a floating timeline, but I do not know if the writing staff recognizes so themselves. Due to their insistence that he does remain 10, I would have to say, yes, they are intending a floating timeline even if they refuse to acknowledge it.
