Midori Harada

Midori Harada has been credited on Pokémon TCG cards from 2003 to 2024, spanning more than 350 illustrations. Across EX, Diamond & Pearl, and Sun & Moon, the work favors vibrant, playful color and clear, character-forward compositions with occasional action-driven framing.

Curatorial Commentary

“The Gengar card captures a moment of mischief, with the Pokémon floating amidst swirling shadows, its mischievous grin glowing in the dim light. This scene evokes a sense of playful eeriness, as Gengar seems to revel in its ability to cast curses and create a bit of chaos. The dark, atmospheric background enhances its ghostly presence, making it feel like a character caught in a moment of delight in its shadowy world. It's a snapshot of a creature that thrives in the mysterious and the unseen.”
