Undo revision 702086 by Weedle Mchairybug (Talk) It's still speculation, none the less.

He also made another comment in another [http://www.pokebeach.com/news/0708/interview-with-masamitsu-hidaka-at-anime-expo interview] that caused a degree of controversy among Pokémon fans. In the second interview he stated that part of the reason for the changing of Ash's female companion from Misty to {{an|May}}, and then to {{an|Dawn}} is that "boys need a new piece of eye candy to look at every once in a while".

However, in his defense, it should be noted that Hidaka's comments went through the translator, and then the fan who posted the interview, so some of the original meaning may have been lost. Japanese culture is very different than American culture, so the comment may have been received in a way Hidaka didn't mean for it to be. | He also made another comment in another [http://www.pokebeach.com/news/0708/interview-with-masamitsu-hidaka-at-anime-expo interview] that caused a degree of controversy among Pokémon fans.
