We all wanna talk about how Ash has been 10 for over 20 years but no one wants to talk about how amazing he has been able to stay alive at 10 for over 20 years. The amount of times he gets hit by a Pokémon’s move, and the amount of times he managed to pull off life or death situations, it’s amazing he managed to keep himself alive all this time.

[@JuMiKu]

To be fair, Team Rocket gets hit even more times and crashed and exploded their vehicles countless more. No normal human would survive that either. And they haven't aged either. Since some game lore heavily implies that people are Pokémon, this kind of makes sense. People's stats are just as good as those of other Pokémon. Their moveset is pretty abysmal though.

Considering in Pokémon Journeys Ash was able to hear Lugia talk, and sensed Riolu's aura in a couple of episodes I'd make it a safe bet that Ash does have some sort of power, but due to him being a bit dense and oblivious he doesn't realize he can do certain things that others can't and is most likely why he lacks the ability to use them properly or connect with it.

Besides the 7 moments in the video there are also moments where Ash was very close to being unalived. One example is the movie where Mewtwo goes against a Genesect and Ash steps between them.

We don’t see it as much after the movie, but I think it has been addressed a few times. Also, yeah, it’s a running gag by now for Ash to get electrocuted by Pikachu. It’s gotten to the point when he does it to wake Ash up, it doesn’t phase him or he just goes right back to sleep.

This all makes a lot more sense if you follow the fan theory that Ash is actually in a coma brought on by the first time that Pikachu electrocuted him. After that his supposed immortality, and the fact that he doesn't age at all, makes a lot more sense.

[@Kinra_Jade]

I have many nitpicks with your video: - Ash from movie 20 is not the same Ash as the one from the anime, it's already confirmed this Ash is following his own timeline regardless of the events of the main anime. His death can't be counted along main Ash's deaths or at the very least, it should be clarified. - Ash from Mewtwo Strikes Back Evolution movie is alledgedly also in the same case as events are depicted differently from the original first movie. It's possible for him to be the same alternate Ash from movie 20. - With the Lavender Town episode, it's unclear whether Ash was dead or just knocked out. However, i'd stick to knocked out because being dead would mean his heart wouldn't restart beating when his soul went back into his body. Another way to look at it is to consider Pikachu went also through the same treatment. I guess you meant that since their souls were out of their bodies, this should technically be counted as a death but i mean, if your body is still alive, it means you haven't died either ; you're just in a coma state. - Same can be told with Victini's and Manaphy's movies. He was close to death but not actually dead.

[@megapokekid1]

Mewtwo strikes back evolution does not take place in the same timeline as I choose You. Ash never traveled with Misty and Brock, and since he has Squirtle and Bulbasaur, it is assumed it is a similar timeline to the main anime, only with a few differences.

so since ash has been legit dead 7 times that means under the right circumstances does the poke-government recognize him as alive???

[@TheLatiosnlatias02]

- Plot twist - Since birth, Satoshi was secretly taken to Dr Fuji's lab. Experiments were done that I could speculate on two possibilities. - Either he's a human half- Pokémon who must have been a test subject in a lab that could last for so long without aging or being killed by so many methods. - Or he might be one of his clones since Dr Fuji is specialised in cloning in different regions (Johto, Kanto, Hoen, Sinnoh, etc...) during different periods which might explain why he doesn't age. Probably the original one died then a clone was replaced. - Or maybe because the Pokémon World itself is blessed by some divine powers which is why their lifespans are longer than Earth or no one ages whether it is Satoshi, Kasumi, Takeshi, Haruka, Masato, Hikari, Airisu, Serena, Citron, Dent, Eureka, Hanako, Shigeru, Kenji, Maria (Mutiny in the bounty), Hiroshi, Nozomi, etc... even Team Rocket. They can still die not by age. Some for instance - - Latios, Lucario died. - J presumably died when her airship sank into the ocean. - Aron died to protect Lucario and Rin too. - King of Pokélantis. - Woodate (Episode - Celebrating the Hero's Comet) - Haruto (Episode The distant blue sky) I'm sure there are others, but I just came up with that thought.

0:19 ever since He never got older he is still 10

[@404TVfr]

He actually turned 11

[@user-pi2go7wv4j]

​@@404TVfr no you're just experiencing the mandela effect. Ash has always been 10.

[@404TVfr]

@@user-pi2go7wv4j nope, one of the later shows said he was 11. Either that or I was misinformed; the Mandela Effect isn't real.

[@user-pi2go7wv4j]

@@404TVfr no it is real you probably heard wrong because im pretty sure one episode of pokemon journeys said ash was 10

[@404TVfr]

@@user-pi2go7wv4j it literally isn't though. I definitely have misremembered if that is the case.

[@ashketchum7669]

One time ash showed his real face in Sabrina battle he run off without saving his friends that was the real face of that 10yrs kid 🤣🤣😂 He thinked if I don't run I can't even become a cleaner or sweeper

[@chrisb7348]

0:43 maybe the sith lord of the emperor was ash teaching him the art of somehow coming back

[@kaimt5931]

Ash’s mom is just chilling in the background, not caring at all 😂😂

[@XentricYT1]

ik this video was posted a year ago but i just wanted to say ash is immortal, his wish (from when he saw ho-oh) was to stay happy and catch every pokémon and he hasn’t caught every pokémon yet, once he does he will die most likely

[@juanchi227]

Thats actually a really good theory

[@olvixxw]

Ash is literally like a cat, he has just nine lives

[@cameroncooper5195]

A cat with his pet mouse eh

[@kittychuchu6185]

getting close to his last two

[@lukenabaro9026]

Ash: I ALWAYS COME BACK Springtrap: excuse me, am I a joke to you? Yamask: well at least I died once, not seven Ash: Hah, I died seven times and you died four Springtrap: fair point

[@Dan-zc3ou]

I swear to god the angst and the whump is built in already

[@RigelKao]

Exception for sun and moon since it's too kid friendly

[@kuriza7389]

It not ash said damn in sun and moon when pupleo make a giant water balloon

[@Kinra_Jade]

Minior getting eaten by Rayquaza, Stoutland's death and Mallow's mom would beg to differ.

[@RigelKao]

@@Kinra_Jade no blood though

[@Kinra_Jade]

@@RigelKao Blood, depending the quantities and portrayal, can be used to establish the severity of the tone (gory, psychological, serious, comical, etc). Since battles in Pokémon are rarely getting over entertainment, the use of blood would be in a way excessive ; and i'm not even talking of how damaging it would be for the Pokémon franchise as a whole (using creatures to fight for you is already controversial enough as it is ; putting blood on top of it would be terminating the franchise and probably dealing a crushing blow to the genre).

[@redstonemecha7716]

Wait Mewtwo Strikes back: evolution is literally just a reanimation of the first movie so would it still count since they are technically the same deaths.

[@Bacon_Protogen]

Ash : ...who are you William afton : hehehshshshehe

[@deadboy3646]

-(100k volts strikes ash, saved by rubber) Luffy: “First timer?”

[@bradyyang8877]

I mean ash wants to be the very best at everything including dying a bunch of times

[@Ianzanehyper]

3:40 Ash is a ground type

[@loveskorean685]

😂😂

[@leafycrossing4755]

Serena: You were killed?! Ash: Sadly, yes. But I lived!

[@eliasbelmontez4387]

William afton after hearing about ash: "our battle will be legendary!"
