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 Banette card captures a moment in a shadowy forest where the ghostly Pokémon stands poised and ready, its eyes gleaming with a mischievous glint. Surrounded by soft, dappled light filtering through the trees, Banette appears both playful and sinister, embodying the duality of its nature. The atmosphere is thick with anticipation, hinting at the tricks it might play on unsuspecting trainers. This snapshot invites viewers to ponder the secrets hidden within the depths of the woods.”
