Xuxuba said:Certainly Brock and Misty. They are the ones who went through the most with him, the ones whose departure affected him the most and the ones he mentions most often in following seasons.
While we're led to believe that they were his closest friends, I've always felt that Takeshi's various farewells (many of which were pointless since he came back eventually) weren't as touching as Kasumi's OS farewell, by which I mean that Takeshi and Satoshi just kind of said goodbye to each other, grasped hands, and then walked away almost as if nothing happened. So it makes me wonder if Takeshi and Satoshi were even that close to begin with.
