Oh ok. Pinkie lives and works for strangers?! That invalidates my guess for Pinkie. So I would start a baseline age for Let's say The only thing, is that she is really hyper and weird ADHD, i believe which scales her age down and the reason why I put her as So I'll upscale the ages of the mane Multiply by 1.
Applejack will probably be the oldest because she said she got her cutie Mark last in her class ect. I reckon they are about with AJ and Rarity being the oldest and Rainbow and Fluttershy being the younger of the 6.
Im certain Pinkie is much older than she seems due to the fact that she lives with and works for strangers as in not family and is allowed to foalsit their young foals by herself. We got some new information from this week's episode, S5 E11 Party Pooped. In this episode, Applejack finds some notes about future parties Pinkie Pie is planning. Looky here. It's notes for the party she wants to throw for her folks' fiftieth anniversary.
But they ain't nearly that old! That probably refers to the wedding anniversary of Pinkie Pie's mother and father. Their wedding was probably before Pinkie Pie was born, or not much after, so this means Pinkie Pie and Fluttershy are much younger than 50 years old. Alternately, this could refer to some other family member, or the Cakes, who treat Pinkie Pie as familiy.
Now some information from earlier episodes. In S3 E8 Apple Family Reunion, Granny Smith says they've been holding reunions every hundred month since Ponyville was founded, and Auntie Applesauce mentions there has been at least six reunions before this one, which makes Ponyville at least 56 years old. I assume. That what is being said in all the comments, they would be years old.
Since they are living home alone. Besides Pinkie Pie. Applejack, Being the middle child of the Apple family, and a worker for the family, and of course being the last to get her cutie mark in her class, I would put her the oldest or second oldest of the Mane 6.
To why Granny Smith looks old and wrinkly like she does, Luna and her sister are Alicorns, and are immortal. They cannot die from age. So to add common sense to add to this concept, if somepony is an immortal. You would reach your max height, and looks, and stay that way. AKA: Looks young forever. For the ages of Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash, well, you could say they may be the youngest of the other 6 ponies, but to me, I put them in the middle. Would you trust a kid to be left alone at your house to cook and baby sit your kids?
I would not. And now to Fluttershy. And as I said. Pinkie Pie is 17 or 18, so that means she is 18 or 19 years old. For Rainbow Dash? I coooould say she is the same age as Pinkie Pie or Fluttershy, so years old. Reason for putting Fluttershy and Dashie close of age is,since Dasihe and Fluttershy known each other since they were young and in flight school. Now to Rarity.
She owns her own tailor shop and makes her own clothes. So she can be around 20s? To exactly tell who is the oldest between the two? Or if they are the same age. Not sure, but I would put them early 20's. For Twilight Sparkle? I could put her between the ages of Because Twilight being out of school in a manners of sorts, and being out of kindergarten school at that as well. And to add more common sense to this whole statement, since she is getting private schooling from Celestia, I would assume she may be the youngest of the mane 6, placing her at the age of Being an animal and aging differently than humans, they're very young.
If I was being a realist, a horse's life expectancy is only 20 to 30 years. A pony that is a couple months old may be equal to a human child, and a year old pony would be equal to a teen and so on. I disagree with the other comments saying they are 15 or 17 because they would be old.
The only ponies that look young forever are the unicorn gods. Time in that realm must be different, probably a human month would be like several months to them, or even a year. This logic is based off of a horse's actual life span.
If this is not the case and their ages are equivalent to human years and time, then their ages are probably like 12 to 14 and at the most, But it's hard to tell because everyone in the show has the personality of a little kid, same with Spongebob.

That's what I use for an explanation for how they are old enough to own homes in equestria Your ages are pretty accurate, well, for physical ages at least , but still go to high school in EQG, I guess the mirror would turn them into humans that are the same age as them, but not the same age that they physically are, in human years at least.
Example: Twilight goes from being physically 19, to being physically somewhere between Posted December 3, Posted December 29, Posted January 24, In that book, there are extended versions of the entries made in the Journal of Friendship throughout season four. In the entry for the episode 'Pinkie Pride' it mentions that Rainbow Dash is celebrating her tenth birthaversary.
This is the only solid anchor that we have available to determine ages from. Assuming that Pegasus foals attend flight camp at the same age, then we can make the educated estimate that Fluttershy is also ten as she and Rainbow Dash went to flight camp at the same time. This is further reinforced in the IDW comic series as Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy both attend a school reunion together.
Obviously the comic is not canon per se, but as a secondary official source it can be deemed semi-canon as long as it does not contradict the canon source. This would make Pinkie Pie nine years old. We also know from 'The Cutie Mark Chronicles' that the mane six all received their cutie marks at the same time. We know that Rainbow Dash was the first in her class to receive her mark, and that Applejack was the last in her class to receive hers Call of the Cutie.
If we make another assumption that Earth pony and Pegasus schooling works on similar ages, and also that ponies generally get their marks within a similar age range, then this would suggest that Applejack was at least one class higher than Rainbow Dash in school, which would make her older than Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie. So let's say that she is at least eleven, maybe twelve, but probably no more than that due the similar level of physical development between Applejack and Rainbow Dash in 'The Cutie Mark Chronicles'.
This leaves Twilight Sparkle and Rarity, of whom we have no direct clues. However, given that the physical appearance of the mane six is very similar in both the 'present day' and also in flashback scenes in 'The Cutie Mark Chronicles' we can gauge them to be of a similar age. From that same episode, we know that Rarity was despairing over ever getting her mark, so we can assume that she, like Applejack, was a late bloomer. So let's say that she's ages with, or maybe even a little older than Applejack, so I'll put her at twelve.
That only leaves Twilight Sparkle. And I'll be honest that I've go nothing at all for her. So I'll call her eleven. So that's my theory.
There is a lot of assumptions in there, so I may be out, but I think it's probably not far off. Posted March 23, This is very interesting. I am writing a fanfic about what happened to the mane 6 when they grew up and I had to come up with a reasonable age so as to establish what would be reasonable for them to happen in the future and when.
Anyway, unlike you, I didn't do any research and just based myself in what maturity and stages of life they are, and I too came to the conclusion that they're young adults. I too took into account that they live on their own and have jobs, but aren't mature. I didn't come up with ages for each of them, but rather assumed they were all around I did mention that Rarity and Applejack were one year older than Pinkie, but that was more for the effect of a scene than anything, although it did make sense.
Posted April 9, Here is evidence to back this up Rarity owns her own company and lives by herself, Applejack's company is Family owned, Twilight is a student of Princess Celestia, Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy both went to flight school together, and Pinkie Pie lives with the Cakes is immature and hyperactive always making jokes and laughing.
That is how I ranged their ages. Posted April 19, I think most of this is spot on. The only thing I would change is Pinkie Pie's age. The only clear piece of information that is given about the ages of the mane 6 is that Fluttershy is one year older than Pinkie Pie. I would make Pinkie Pie I agree with the rest of your list, though. The ages and reasoning for why they are what they are I think, personally, are spot on.
So this is my modified list:. On the note of body types, the cakes, mostly Mr. Cake, have a different one too. As we can suspect they are middle aged, we can suppose that there are different body types for older ponies who aren't just alicorns.
This is a different world. Who knows if this world has a different measurement for time? This is why is is so hard to wrap our heads around this consent.
If this link actually works then there will be a video under this text posted my an amazing brony named DRWolf DRWolf talks about how hard it is to pinpoint just how old anyone is in the show because this is a different world altogether. It really just depends on how you see the mane 6.

Link to comment. I've already covered why this theory doesn't hold water. Nothing is cannon if its not from Faust. She is the creator afterall. Seeing how that world represent everything as i see them. Mane 6 being teenagers, CMC being kids, Granny smith being an old hag, and others being adults. And the creator, Faust stated them to be from years old.
Here is the actual quote from Lauren Faust: She said nothing of their physical age, she was saying maturity wise she would place them anywhere from I know I know, I shouldn't be arguing with the creator of the show, but just hear me out. So as you see, Faust's statement is inconsistent with show cannon. When you look at the facts, it just seems highly unlikely for the MAne 6 to be under Carla 0 Posted January 18, Haroldman 3 Posted February 12, Siilk 0 Posted April 14, Haroldman 3 Posted April 16, Siilk 0 Posted April 25, Pinkiepie HD 1 Posted May 30, I would say that Twilight is more around the age of 21 or Ranky64 31 Posted December 3, This is my personal order of youngest to oldest of the main characters.
Concerned Bystander 2, Posted January 24, Flippy 1 Posted March 23, I might take your ages and make use them for reference tho. PinkiePieishot 0 Posted April 9, Silver Note Posted April 19, Though I quite agree with you said but I'm not sure how to explain Fleur.
Then how old is Big mac then? PinkiePieishot 0 Posted June 21, Look at my comment. PinkiePieishot 0 Posted July 9, Who else is going to see My Little Pony the Movie. If you have seen the show and wondered about the ages of the main characters, you are certainly not alone. There are many others who have tried to answer the question of how old those colorful ponies are. I believe that the show left the ages unspecified for a reason: to allow the viewers to imagine the characters how they choose.
This may help make the characters easier to relate to. Still, I think it is fun to overthink things, so I did a bit of research and was able to come up with a fairly accurate age depiction for each pony. A group of students did a scientific analysis and I used this as one of my primary resources, so feel free to check it out.
I feel like they did an excellent job with their study. I f you look at reference 15 from the study, it is a quote from Faust saying she imagined them as young adults with maturity levels of a year old. She says they are horses, but have human brains; they grow up fast but mature slower.
Twilight may have simply forgotten that interaction, and so I still think Equestria Girls can be considered canon, just as the comics. Another reason that I think the school setting in Equestria Girls does not mean that the mane six are high school age is because it takes place outside the realm of Equestria.
There is a portal which could alter time and space when traveled through. There is also a quote by Fluttershy, which you may or not be familiar with. However, when people ask about my younger sister, I say that she is two years younger than I am; I do not mention the two months of the year that she is three years younger. People often go with the difference in ages either at the time, or that they have for the majority of the year. I have no reason to believe ponies would not do the same.
I placed Fluttershy as the oldest because as a filly, she looked taller than the others. This made me believe that she was older.
