Midori Harada

Midori Harada’s Pokémon TCG credits run from 2003 through 2024, encompassing more than 350 cards. The illustrator appears prominently across the EX era, with additional presence in Diamond & Pearl and Sun & Moon. Within these releases, Harada also contributes Trainer cards, extending the same crisp staging and readable silhouettes beyond Pokémon subjects.

Harada’s visual approach leans cartoonish and colorful, with a playful, lighthearted mood carried by vibrant palettes that often shift into soft or pastel ranges. Compositions tend toward simple, balanced layouts and focused, clear framing, punctuated by dynamic angles when motion is emphasized; character-focused staging keeps expressions and gesture legible at card scale. Gengar & Mimikyu-GX is a concise example of this craft, pairing energetic clarity with controlled contrast. Among the most sought-after cards illustrated by Midori Harada is Gengar & Mimikyu-GX.
