Shin Nagasawa
Shin Nagasawa has illustrated Pokémon TCG cards from 2009 to 2025, with work appearing across Sun & Moon, Sword & Shield, and Scarlet & Violet. The art leans into action-forward clarity—vibrant, contrasting color and focused, character-led staging.
“The Steelix card from the Lost Thunder set captures a dynamic moment as this powerful Pokémon bursts through rocky terrain, sending debris flying in all directions. Its metallic body glimmers in the light, showcasing both strength and agility, while its piercing eyes reflect a sense of determination and focus. The scene conveys a raw energy, as if Steelix is asserting its dominance in its underground realm. This snapshot invites the viewer to appreciate the fierce nature of this Iron Snake Pokémon.”
