Quotes
"Welcome to Pokémon League, <name>. Allow me to introduce myself. I am Will. I have trained all around the world, making my psychic Pokémon powerful. And, at last, I've been accepted into the Elite Four. I can only keep getting better! Losing is not an option!"
"I... I can't... believe it..."
"Even though I was defeated, I won't change my course. I will continue battling until I stand above all trainers! Now, <name>, move on and experience the true ferocity of the Elite Four."
In the Pokémon Special manga
Will, along with Karen, Blue, Silver, Charmaine, and Keane, is one of the children kidnapped by the Mask of Ice and raised to be his servants. Will was one of the leaders of the new Team Rocket formed in Johto. After the defeat of the Mask of Ice, he and Karen met Koga and Bruno. Together, the four formed a new Elite Four, and have not been heard of since.

Trivia
- Will's hair falls over the left side of his face, leading to his left eye being whited out in some depictions. This has spurred debate as to whether he has one functioning eye or two. In the updated Sugimori artwork from the VS Series, however, both of his eyes can be seen.
- Interestingly, his Japanese name Itsuki is shared with a character from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Itsuki Koizumi, who is an esper. The Psychic-type, Will's preference, is known as the Esper type in Japan.
