Oswaldo KATO
Linework, lighting, and a sense of scale



Oswaldo KATO’s Pokémon TCG work first appeared in Chilling Reign. Pokémon’s Brilliant Stars art feature looks closely at Torterra and Bidoof: foreground characters, smaller figures, and expressive lines give their scenes texture and scale. Stadium illustrations offer a different view of that world-building, from Collapsed Stadium to Path to the Peak. Follow the lighting and the spaces around the Pokémon as much as the characters themselves.
