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 Gyarados VMAX card captures a dynamic moment of this powerful Pokémon as it emerges from the depths, its massive form coiling with energy. The swirling colors and vivid details convey a sense of raw power and intensity, as Gyarados prepares to unleash its might. The scene feels both majestic and fierce, reflecting the tumultuous nature of the waters it inhabits. This snapshot invites the viewer to appreciate the strength and presence of Gyarados in its aquatic realm.”
