Who is credited as the writer of Pokémon Pokopia?

Masao Taya is credited as the writer of Pokémon Pokopia.

The writing credit identifies the person responsible for the game’s narrative and text-related work. Pokopia’s story follows a Ditto in human form as it helps restore a damaged world and supports Pokémon living together, giving the building mechanics a narrative setting.

Taya’s credit is separate from the game’s directing, art, programming, and design roles. Shigeru Ohmori and Takuto Edagawa are listed as directors, Marina Ayano as an artist, and Yu Ito and Kengo Ida among the programmers.

Credits can be easy to mix up because a modern game is made by a large team. The question asks specifically for the writer, not the director who conceived the habitat idea or the programmers responsible for technical implementation.
