Are Ash and Goh the Same Age?

It would explain why Goh only now gets a Pokemon and why May got a starter Pokemon when we first met her in Diamond and Pearl despite us also being told she was the exact same age as Ash.

How old is Ash in Pokémon Journey?

Ash Ketchum is 10 years old. He was 10 when he began his journey and now, more than 20 years since the journey's beginning, he is still 10 years old. Years have passed, both in real life and also in-universe, but Ash's age doesn't change and that makes sense in the world of Pokémon.
