Yeah, for the English side I’m keeping it to just new sets and the occasional Play! or Trick or Trade
Couple of interesting finds from Pokémon Trading Card Game: Illustration Collection Book
Sets Freeze Bolt and Cold Flare are called: Freeze Shock and Ice Burn
They are illustrated by: 5Ban Graphics
Not really sure what to make of this since the illustrator credit on the poster is Hideaki Hokozaki? I’ll take a look at the poster again when I go through my collection but seems like for now we should use the book?
Collection X and Collection Y are done by 5ban Graphics
Wild Blaze is illustrated by 5ban Graphics.

Hey @koala do you remember where you found the source for who illustrated the packing artwork for Eevee Heroes? Suprised its 5ban Graphics
I speculated when the set released based on how close it is to their RR Eeveelutions V cards (Sylveon V is by aky CG Works)

Thanks, all of them have been filled out with Hideaki Hakozaki and PLANETA Otani in their respective booster pack arts. Hakozaki is the founder of design studio PLANETA (September 2011)

Is this the first time ENG and JPN pack arts use the exact same render?

No plenty of times. Latest one I can remember Ruler of the Black Flame / Obsidian Flames. I wonder what the earliest one was though…

If there is one thing I’ve learned from this post is the HS era pack art had NO business going that hard
