Shigenori Negishi
Shigenori Negishi has contributed Pokémon TCG illustrations from 2011 to 2025, spanning series such as Sword & Shield, Sun & Moon, and XY. The work leans cartoonish and playful, with balanced, character-forward staging and vibrant, contrasting color.
“The card depicts Hitmonlee standing confidently atop a rocky outcrop, surrounded by a sea of clouds that glow with the warm hues of a sunset. Its elongated limbs are poised, suggesting readiness for action, while its expression conveys determination and focus. This moment captures the essence of a fighter in their element, embodying both strength and grace. The peaceful yet dynamic backdrop enhances the feeling of anticipation, as if Hitmonlee is preparing for its next challenge.”
