Will (Japanese: イツキ Itsuki) is a Psychic-type Trainer and member of the Indigo Elite Four.

Will is noted for his peculiar appearance—formal clothes and a mask that covers his eyes.

In the games

Will is the first member of the Indigo League Elite Four in the Generation II and Generation IV games. He achieved his Elite Four position fairly recently as a result of training around the world with his Psychic-type Pokémon.

Will also appears as a member of the Elite Four in Pokémon Stadium 2's Johto Gym Leader Castle. Due to the more competitive nature of the game, Will also uses several non-Psychic Pokémon in it, although most of them still know Psychic moves.

History

Past

Will, along with Karen, Green, Silver, Sham, and Carl, was one of the children raised by the Masked Man to be his servants. Unlike Silver and Green, Will was not kidnapped and went to the Masked Man willingly out of boredom.

Gold, Silver & Crystal arc

Will debuted with Karen at the Ilex Forest, where they have been tasked with guarding the area. When Green arrived to stop the Masked Man's plan to capture Celebi, she was attacked by Will and Karen. With the Lugia and Ho-Oh they borrowed from the Masked Man, Will and Karen exploited Green's fear of birds to torture her. When Green learned that Will and Karen also defeated and captured Silver, she overcame her fear of birds and sent out Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres to fight. Green and her allies, Red and Blue, each used one of the legendary birds to battle Will and Karen. With the assistance of many Pokémon sent from all across Johto and Kanto, Lugia and Ho-Oh were freed from the Masked Man's control and fly away. Defeated, Will made his escape, only to be punished later by the Masked Man for doing so.

After the Masked Man's defeat, Will and Karen were approached by Bruno and Koga, who offered to form an alliance since all four of them were once members of various criminal organizations.

HeartGold & SoulSilver arc

It is revealed that Will, Karen, Bruno, and Koga were all made members of the Johto Elite Four by the Pokémon Association. The Johto Elite Four went to the Pokéathlon as an act of promotion for the Pokémon League. There, they met Gold, whom they challenged to the Power Course. Although they easily defeated Gold in the first two events, Gold gained enough points in the third event to win overall.

On hand

		Natu → Xatu
		Xatu is Will's first known Pokémon. Xatu was first used to attack Green at the Ilex Forest. Green's fear of birds prevented her from fighting back. Later, it was used against Silver while on Lugia's back. After being weakened by a Beat Up from Silver's entire team, Xatu was defeated by a Return from Silver's Feraligatr. In The Escape, it was revealed to have evolved from a Natu. Xatu's only known move is Psychic.
Debut	The Last Battle VII

		Exeggutor
		Exeggutor first appeared alongside its Trainer at the Pokéathlon. It was used to challenge Gold in the Goal Roll event, where it easily won. None of Exeggutor's moves are known.
Debut	Attaway, Aipom!

Borrowed

		Lugia
		Main article: Tower duo (Adventures) The Masked Man lent Lugia to Will in order to guard the Ilex Forest. Will used Lugia to battle Green, Red, and Blue, who used Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres, respectively. During the battle, many Pokémon sent from people from Kanto and Johto came to assist. The Pokémon latched on to Lugia and Ho-Oh, and their combined power freed the two from the Masked Man's control. Now freed, Lugia and Ho-Oh flew off to parts unknown.
Debut	The Beedrill All and End All

Pokémon
