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.

Curatorial Commentary

“The Stakataka card captures a moment of dynamic energy, showcasing the Pokémon in a burst of action amidst a chaotic backdrop. Its geometric form, composed of stacked blocks, contrasts sharply with the surrounding debris, emphasizing its sturdy nature. The scene evokes a sense of determination, as if Stakataka is standing its ground against an unseen challenge. This snapshot of its world highlights the unique blend of strength and resilience that defines this Ultra Beast.”
