That kid grows up slowly.

Wasn’t it the first or second season that he had an episode where he left the third grade. Guess they are finally doing a seque.

It's about time!

It's not the only show where the kids never age. Power Rangers for like the first 7 seasons were still in high school. The Simpsons, Family Guy and South Park...the families haven't aged. I mean my god Maggie's been a baby for 30 years.

Yes and no. The core veteran group of Rangers graduated at the start of Turbo, but then they were replaced by the new cast who were still in high school, and in the sixth season, a good deal of their time spent in high school was reduced in favour of their space missions.

The original Blue Ranger Billy also graduated early in the Zeo season

Show had become unbearable to watch when it went to flash. But the series itself still have some good episodes. The 9/11 episode was good, Cancer episodes was great. Anything with Binky is basically top tier.

Most kids show characters don't age. Ash from Pokemon is still 10. During Johto they sort of played with the idea of him turning 11 (Ash and Pikachu have a 1 year anniversary of meeting in the Pikachu short at the beginning of the 3rd movie), but then they went back on it and kept him 10 forever. Even in the XY season where he looked much older than usual.

In all fairness, That dialogue about 1 year was only in the English version. Satoshi was silent in the original.

But other than that, yeah, the Pokémon anime suffer from ageless characters. At least Digimon we see the First season cast at least college age

I was never a real fan of Digimon aging up the original cast, but that's largely because they totally f*cked up the second series and made me care so little.

Ash on the other hand should have been written out after Sun and Moon

He should have been written out long ago. We should have gotten each season with a new protagonist like the Pokémon Special manga.

Yeah, ideal jumping off-points would have been when he won Orange Islands or when Misty and Brock left. Should have went with Misty back to Cerulean City and settled.

You’re correct, when I read that he was finally going to the 4th grade I could of sworn he already moved onto the 4th grade. I looked it up and there was an episode in 2015 where he graduated from the 3rd grade, but apparently he went back to the 3rd grade or something.

It was much earlier than 2015, it was one of the earliest seasons as I remember it was about the kids doing summer vacation.
