§ 02 — About XY

A look inside the set.

XY presents a full 146-card spread with 120 Pokémon cards supported by 15 Trainers and 11 Energy, giving the set a clear, collection-like structure. The rarity mix is weighted toward Commons and Uncommons, then steps up through Rares and holo treatments into a smaller tier of EX and Ultra cards. Across the binder, the dominant look is vibrant and upbeat: balanced, simple layouts and focused character staging keep most scenes readable, while select cards push into more dynamic, action-forward framing.

Among the visual highlights, Xerneas-EX{xy1-146}(88) stands out as a polished showcase piece, with M Venusaur-EX{xy1-2}(82) offering a second, more forceful variation on the same high-gloss language. The set’s illustration footprint is led by 5ban Graphics, whose digital and 3D-render sensibility shapes much of the EX presentation, while Ryo Ueda adds sharper motion and graphic clarity. Together, they sit within a wider field of cartoonish, colorful art that keeps the overall mood lighthearted and energetic.

I · Visual identity

Vibrant palettes dominate, often paired with natural accents and occasional contrasting pops that keep characters separated from their backgrounds. The prevailing style reads cartoonish and playful, supported by digital polish; compositions stay balanced and focused, then pivot into dynamic action framing for select cards, maintaining an energetic, lighthearted tone across the set.

II · Illustrators

5ban Graphics is the primary visual engine here, accounting for a large share of the set and defining its digital, 3D-render finish on many higher-rarity cards. Ryo Ueda is the next most present, bringing crisp motion and graphic structure that complements the set’s preference for clear, focused staging.
