My little pony how old is spike

I do tend to assume that dragons live a lot longer than ponies, but Especially if greed and growth are related. I'd give him about 10 years old. That seems to be the standard show age for most plot-important 'child' characters. Not quite at maturity, but mature enough to be reasonably expected to do the things they do. At the cusp of puberty, I would think.

That'd place him at 12 years at the oldest. Presumably, the CMC weren't born yet when Spike was born and with the CMC appearing to be 8 or 9 years old, Spike being 10 or 11 sounds pretty reasonable. Those numbers may be low, Twilight looked younger than 7 when she hatched him, using Sweetie Belle's 5th birthday as a reference. Thus, the answer to your question depends on "How long ago did the 1st rainboom happen? It's a long explanation. You make Spike older, you make Dash younger at that time.

By the way Twilight treats him, she doesn't baby him the way the CMC are treated. She treats him more like an assistant or intern so he's probably higher on maturity than the CMC I would say , 16 to be safe. Considering Twi hatched him with an age spell, then reverted him with one, along with his dragon greed aging him later on, then him being brought back to how he originally looked, it's possible that he may just LOOK like a "baby dragon", but already be hundreds or thousands of years old.

Since he hangs out with the Cutie Mark Crusaders the most often when not with Twilight or the others, I assume that they are in the same age group. I'd estimate around years old considering the tasks he is trusted with and capable of performing not only competently, but skillfully. As for the whole 'baby dragon' thing, I assume that's more to make him sound cute for marketing reasons, since he's clearly greatly physically and mentally matured from when he was first hatched in the flashback.

To add to this, remember that ponies flat-out don't know dragons as a species. Even Twilight admitted to not knowing much. He is around pony years at the moment. He was hatched when Twilight was a filly, and a filly is max. Given Twilight is 22 or older at the moment Spike is even older.

A writer also confirmed that Spike is called a baby dragon because he ages much slower, a dragon is probably not a baby anymore when they're around 50 or something like that. More proof of this is that Spike hangs out with Big Mac, Discord and who knows what adults more. Following his appearance in Equestria Girls, he has since appeared in series episodes and several IDW comics. Here, Twilight is one of the four princesses and is married to Rainbow Dash.

They have a daughter named Rainbow Sparkle. Though Spike is young and often stated to only be a baby dragon, he occasionally has moments of great heroism and bravery.

Anne was the first vampire he sired. Which is to say, I think there are certainly maternal feelings that Twilight has towards Spike, and Spike probably sees Twilight as a motherly figure. Even so, they do have moments that seem to where they treat each other more like siblings. Her heartbreak in Father Knows Beast-which I barely even like to acknowledge because of how it turned out-could be symptomatic of Spike rejecting the family, as well as her personally.

Mostly he just wishes he lived in a castle. Scootaloo who is a pegasus pony is related to Cheerilee in G3 who is a earth pony. He was sired turned by the vampire Druscilla in London, in the year , making him anywhere from 27—30 years old when he became a vampire. Since he's the only confirmed horse in the series, that means Celestia does count as a pony. In the season eight episode Molt Down, Spike sprouts wings —previously mentioned in Hot Minute with Rarity—and gains the ability to fly after undergoing the molt.

Prior to this change, he typically gets around by riding on Twilight's or one of his friends' back. How old is spike in My Little Pony? Category: movies family and children movies.

I'm using height and sizes. Also using season 1 episode 23 flashbacks. That all the schools begin enrolling at the age of six.

Fluttershy is the largest, tallest, longlegged, wide wingspanned, and is already enrolled in school enrolled two years prior to Twilight, one year above everyone else. Rainbow Dash is also enrolled in the same school but is younger than Fluttershy. Rarity is already enrolled in a school, and is allowed access to sharp objects for making costumes.

Apple Jack is old enough that her guardians let her travel alone to a big city, though is similar in size to Rarity and Rainbow Dash since they don't show Apple Jack attending or enrolling school and I'm using school and size as a guide, my guess for her is uncertain. Pinkie Pie never attended school.

She presumably went from working at a rock farm to working in a bakery shop. Twilight is barely enrolled for school, but she is the same size as all but Fluttershy. That's why they are the same size.
