Anime News Network reports that Takeshi Shudō, former head writer of the Pokémon anime, collapsed at Nara railway's smoking station around 6:00am on Thursday, October 28th. Upon being discovered by a passerby, he was rushed to the hospital and is undergoing surgery. It was soon determined at the hospital's emergency care center that Shudō had suffered a subarachnoid hemorrhage in his head.

Shudō was a key part of the initial stages of the anime's original series. He wrote the first episode, which aired over ten years ago. His most recent work was in 2003, with Yadon's Comprehension! Satoshi's Comprehension! (Enlighten Up!). Shudō has also been credited with creating the legendary Pokémon Lugia.

Bulbanews will update this story as more information comes to hand.
