Pokémon Art Academy Competition Winners Chosen!
See the winning submissions in the Pokémon Art Academy Competition!
June 05, 2015
Earlier this year, thousands of inspired artists submitted their works of Pokémon art for the Pokémon Art Academy Competition. The judges have decided the winners! Three entries were chosen for each of the two categories: “Dress-Up Pikachu” and “Your Favorite Pokémon.” Artists from North America were in their own pool, while artists in Europe and Australia competed in the other. All 12 of our winners will receive a 100-card pack of custom-designed Pokémon Trading Card Game cards displaying their artwork!
Dress-Up Pikachu—North America
Xime
Judge Commentary:
“It meticulously expresses the flavor of a tropical island with its colors. The costume is drawn well and is cute and pretty. It’s a high-quality work.”
Ashley
Judge Commentary:
“This piece expresses the atmosphere of Kabuki and Japan very well. It’s wonderful. The costume, the makeup, the stage, the runway, and the lighting are all very well drawn.”
Me!
Judge Commentary:
“Pikachu dressed as the queen of hearts caught my eye, especially the gorgeous costume.”
Dress-Up Pikachu—Europe, Russia, Australia, and New Zealand
Lily-Chan
Judge Commentary:
“It’s very well drawn with such detail. The ear covers and the snowflake-shaped accessories are very cute.”
Rhivern
Judge Commentary:
“You can’t take your eyes off of Pikachu because it’s in a precarious situation, which makes the picture even cuter.”
Meli
Judge Commentary:
“The light and the shadow are well balanced, and the highlights have some good effects.”
Your Favorite Pokémon—North America
Mireil
Judge Commentary:
“It depicts the magnificence of Primal Kyogre very well. It’s a stunning illustration with perfect overall balance.”
Gosha
Judge Commentary:
“It’s a fun piece completed very beautifully with only a few colors. The elements are simple yet elaborate.”
Gabi
Judge Commentary:
“The theme that depicts the trust between Pokémon and humans is wonderful.”
Your Favorite Pokémon—Europe, Russia, Australia, and New Zealand
Phanpy
Judge Commentary:
“The use of color and lighting reminiscent of a fairy tale is very beautiful. It mystically depicts the scene when Mew and other Pokémon met for the first time, and captivates the imagination.”
Scarlett*
Judge Commentary:
“As every single detail is painstakingly drawn, I would enjoy looking at it for a long time. The texture of the body is great, and the Pokémon’s happy expression makes me smile.”
Peegeray
Judge Commentary:
“I could tell this was a very well-drawn picture with just one look. It shows both painting skills and charm as a picture.”
Congratulations to all of our winning artists, and thank you to everyone who participated in the Pokémon Art Academy Competition!
