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 features Torkoal, a turtle-like Pokémon with a red and gray shell. It is positioned in a natural setting, surrounded by rocks and vegetation. There is a smoky effect around it, suggesting it may be emitting steam or heat.”
