About the artist

Hoshino KURO is credited in 2025, with a single known Pokémon TCG card in this dataset. The illustration appears in Scarlet & Violet, within the Black Bolt set, and centers on Panpour.

The visual approach reads as playful and cartoonish, leaning into clean shapes and a lighthearted, cheerful tone. Compositionally, the scene is action-forward without feeling crowded: dynamic movement is tempered by balanced staging, keeping the character clearly legible. Color choices stay vivid and lush, arranged in a harmonious palette that supports the upbeat mood rather than competing with it. A representative credit is Panpour.
