§ 02 — About Celestial Storm

A look inside the set.

Celestial Storm (Sun & Moon) presents 187 cards with a clear structural emphasis on Pokémon (142), backed by 43 Trainer cards and a small Energy presence. The rarity profile is broad, moving from a large base of Commons and Uncommons into multiple tiers of holo and Ultra rarities, including Rainbow and Secret cards. Across the set, the prevailing look is colorful and digital, with a consistent preference for balanced, focused layouts that keep subjects readable and centered.

The set’s visual character is defined by playful, energetic moods and a predominantly vibrant palette, often sharpened by contrasting color choices. Among the visual highlights are Articuno-GX (sm7-31) and Articuno-GX (sm7-171), both showcasing the set’s clean, character-led framing. Illustration duties are led in volume by 5ban Graphics and Ken Sugimori, with Kagemaru Himeno and Mitsuhiro Arita also contributing key portions of the artwork mix.

I · Visual identity

Celestial Storm’s dominant visual language is bright and character-centric: vibrant color palettes, frequent contrast, and clean, focused framing. The mood skews playful and energetic, with dynamic poses appearing often, yet most scenes remain readable through balanced compositions and simple, uncluttered staging.

II · Illustrators

The set is anchored by high-volume contributions from 5ban Graphics and Ken Sugimori, establishing much of its digital polish and classic character presentation. Kagemaru Himeno and Mitsuhiro Arita add further variety within the same clear, subject-forward approach that runs through the set.
