>Favorite Screenplay writer?That one's hard. Takeshi Shudo obviously has a lot of scripts that are too soulful to ignore. His vision for the Pokemon anime was great, and the movies he wrote are easily three of the top five that the Pokemon anime has had. Atsuhiro Tomioka on the other hand has not only written the most screenplays, but he's the more senior after Shudo, having written from episode three to the finale. His work as series composer also brought us the stuff from Battle Frontier (informally), Diamond and Pearl, and XY. Hideki Sonoda co-wrote Movie 3 and all of the movies after up to Volcanion, but also wrote the occasional banger. Aya Matsui wrote some of the best one-off episodes in AG and DP, and did composition for SM. Those four are definitely in the top tier together, but which one is the best changes depending on the mood, I think. Tomioka's the best at writing battles while I think Matsui reigns supreme on SoL. Shudo is Shudo.
