Ryo Ueda
Ryo Ueda has been credited on Pokémon TCG cards from 2003 to 2023, spanning more than 400 illustrations. Work appears across EX, XY, and Sword & Shield, with a digital, action-forward approach that favors focused framing, balanced layouts, and vibrant, contrasting color.
“The card depicts a Net Ball, a tool designed for capturing Pokémon, set against a vibrant green background that suggests a lush environment. The ball itself, with its striking teal and black design, stands out prominently, evoking a sense of potential and adventure. The surrounding foliage hints at the natural world where trainers might seek out elusive Pokémon. This scene captures a moment of readiness, as if the trainer is poised to make a strategic move in the midst of their journey.”
