About the artist

sui has been credited on Pokémon Trading Card Game illustrations from 2009 through 2025, with work appearing across series such as Sun & Moon, Black & White, and XY.

Visually, sui’s cards lean whimsical and cartoonish, with a playful, cheerful tone that is reinforced by vibrant color palettes—frequently softened into pastel or harmonious ranges. Compositions tend to stay simple and focused, keeping attention on the featured Pokémon while using dynamic angles or foreground emphasis to add energy without clutter.
