Each year, The Pokémon Company holds a competition to find a new illustrator for their Pokémon TCG cards, now open to entrants outside of Japan.
After controversy surrounding an entrant using AI and multiple identities, Pokémon Company disqualified the cheat and acknowledged the issue.
The competition emphasizes smaller landscape images for card illustrations, with prizes for Best Standard Card Illustration, Best ex Card Illustration, and a Grand Prize.
The distinctiveness of the winning artworks this year highlights the growth and diversity in the Pokémon illustration community.
