Thread: Brendan wears a hat - confirmed by Sugimori

Just a bit of small yet funny news: Someone asked Ken Sugimori on his Twitter whether or not Brendan (Yuki in Japanese) has white hair or just wears a hat. He replied that it's a "knit hat".

So yeah, I thought that's pretty cool that he answered that considering this is a subject that causes pretty big debates amongst the Pokemon community.

Here's a translated screenshot:


Just thought I'd share.

I'm surprised it took all this time for it to actually be confirmed, but people stopped fighting over it a good long while ago as we all figured that it's just a hat and he's not Benjamin Button with his white hair.

When I first played I did think his hair was white.

Wow, someone really asked him that?

You betcha.

Haha, that's neat. =) I guess I never really thought about it, but it does look like it could be hair or a hat! Glad to see it confirmed.

Now if we could only get Thorton straightened out.

He has cool green hair and some kind of weird headband!


I think.

I actually tought that was white hairs. ;o

Awww, I liked believing he had white hair :(

The ghosts of a million "hair or hat" debates, coming back to me... :P

Haha, thanks for sharing.

I go with the Pokemon Special "canon" 8D

Mind = blown.

Well, of course the Special Manga influenced me into thinking it was a hat...but wow...this is great XD

Hah I was right... :p
I knew the whole time that it was a hat.
But I'm glad we now know for sure, to end the debate and stuff :D

Even though we all figured it out ages ago, it's nice to get some confirmation...

Not quite, many many people thought he had white/silver 'bishie' hair. And I bet that even for years after this, they will just keep saying that he has white hair and that Sugimori is wrong. In fact I guarantee it.
