Sumiyoshi Kizuki

Pokémon card illustrator

Sumiyoshi Kizuki (Japanese: 木月すみよし, born 1967) is a veteran Japanese illustrator and picture-book artist who has worked on the Pokémon TCG since the 1990s. She is instantly recognizable for her soft, gentle, crayon- and pastel-like look that gives her Pokémon a warm storybook feel, distinct from the slick CG art around her. With well over 200 cards illustrated, she is one of the longest-tenured artists in the game.
