Ken Sugimori
Ken Sugimori is credited on more than 1,100 Pokémon TCG cards from 1999 to 2022, spanning sets such as Base, Gym Heroes, and Neo Genesis. The work favors clear, character-forward staging, playful moods, and vibrant-to-pastel color palettes with balanced, simple compositions.
“The card depicts Shining Gyarados emerging from the depths of a dark, starry sea, its vibrant colors contrasting sharply against the night sky. The scene captures a moment of raw power and intensity, as Gyarados lets out a fierce roar, embodying both beauty and menace. A small boat floats nearby, hinting at the danger this magnificent creature poses to unsuspecting travelers. The atmosphere is charged with tension, making it clear that this is a creature not to be trifled with.”
