§ 02 — About EX Trainer Kit 2 Minun

A look inside the set.

EX Trainer Kit 2 Minun presents a tightly edited 12-card selection: 7 Pokémon supported by 3 Trainer cards and 2 Energy. With nearly every card built on simple, focused layouts, the set prioritizes legibility and direct character presentation. Color trends toward vibrant and warm, softened by occasional pastel and monochrome notes, keeping the overall look light and approachable.

Within that clean framework, a few illustrations stand out for their character-forward presence, including Charmeleon (tk2b-3), Arcanine (tk2b-1), and Growlithe (tk2b-4). The illustrator mix is led by Ken Sugimori and Midori Harada, whose contributions shape much of the set’s cartoonish, cheerful tone. Supporting work from Kouki Saitou and Naoyo Kimura adds subtle variation while staying consistent with the set’s clear, minimal visual rhythm.

I · Visual identity

The visual language is clean and character-first: simple, focused compositions dominate, with clear silhouettes and minimal scene complexity. Moods skew playful and cheerful, carried by vibrant, warm color palettes and softened accents that keep the presentation friendly and straightforward.

II · Illustrators

Ken Sugimori leads the set by count, with Midori Harada close behind, together establishing much of the cartoonish, upbeat baseline. Additional contributions from Kouki Saitou and Naoyo Kimura provide measured stylistic variety while remaining aligned with the set’s clear, minimal compositional approach.
