Pokémon TCG Illustration Exhibition Opening remarks by Rianti Hidayat Pokémon Trading Card Game Illustrator from Indonesia Hello everyone! Something fun is happening here! "Pokémon TCG Academia" is now being held in Indonesia! If I may talk about my story; as a huge Pokémon fan, one of my dreams has always been to see my drawings become part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. The chance presented itself when I discovered the 2nd Pokémon Card Game Illustration Grand Prix contest; there, I submitted two illustrations, one is for Wishiwashi and the other is for Zacian. The Zacian illustration managed to win the Judge's Award category, and finally opened the way to greater opportunities! When I heard that this event will be held in my homeland, I felt amazing! In the future, I hope that more Indonesians know about Pokémon Trading Card Game and are moved to become one of the Pokémon card illustrators! 🌟 Enjoy the event, and together let's grow the Pokémon Trading Card Game community in Indonesia!

Galarian Zapdos Expansion: S12a - VSTAR Universe	Ini karya pertama saya yang dijadikan desain untuk satu kartu selembar penuh! Saya menikmati semua proses pengerjaannya; ada lebih banyak ruang untuk melakukan eksplorasi, dan saya bisa bermain lebih banyak dengan kedalaman dimensinya. Prosesnya tak hanya sampai di situ; setelahnya saya harus memastikan kualitasnya sesuai dengan standar yang sudah ditetapkan secara seksama; untuk mendapatkan hasil terbaik dan konsisten. Yang paling membekas di benak saya adalah saat mengetahui bahwa bahkan untuk cakar di setiap Pokémon ada aturan warna Pantone-nya sendiri yang harus diikuti. Seru!	This is my first design work for a Full Art card! I enjoyed every aspect of the production; there is more room for exploration, and I could play more with the depth in the dimensions. The process doesn't stop there; afterwards I have to thoroughly ensure the work's quality is up to the determined standards, to get the best and consistent results. One thing that's stuck in my mind is learning that even the claws on each Pokémon have their own Pantone color rules. Fun!
Magearna Expansion: S10P - Space Juggler	Ini pertama kali saya menggambar Pokémon dengan latar di dalam ruangan, dan asyik sekali bisa bermain dengan sudut pencahayaan. Dan karena Pokémon ini memiliki bentuk dasar berlekuk, ini jadi tantangan baru tersendiri untuk membaurkan bentuk dimensi bulat dengan gaya gambar saya, dengan tetap menangkap esensi desain dari Magearna itu sendiri.	This is the first time I drew Pokémon with an indoor setting, and it was really fun to play around with the lighting angles. Since this Pokémon has a curved basic shape, it presents a new personal challenge to blend rounded shapes with my art style, while still capturing the essence of Magearna's design itself.
Beartic Expansion: S9 - Star Birth	Salah satu dari beberapa karya pertama yang saya buat sejak mendapat kehormatan untuk membuat ilustrasi kartu Pokémon. Beruangnya memiliki bentuk menyerupai serpihan tajam es, sangat cocok dipadankan dengan gaya ilustrasi saya yang didominasi garis tegas dan sudut bersiku, menghasilkan ilustrasi bergaya dinamis dengan sentuhan elemen bersiluet segitiga di beberapa sisi area.	One of my first works since I received the honor to illustrate Pokémon cards. The bear's shapes resembling sharp ice shards fits perfectly with my illustration style which heavily uses straight lines and sharp angles, producing a dynamic illustration with a touch of triangular silhouettes in some areas.
Impidimp Expansion: SCE - Awakening V Starter Deck (Indonesia-exclusive product)	Kartu dengan komposisi ilustrasi yang paling saya sukai sejauh ini, dibanding dengan beberapa kartu yang lain. Untuk dapat menangkap esensi 'jahil' dari Impidimp tentunya tantangan berbeda, tapi menyenangkan! Segera setelah saya menyelesaikan ilustrasi ini, berikutnya tiba-tiba saya berakhir mengoleksi beberapa boneka plushie Impidimp, karena saya jadi benar-benar jatuh cinta dengan Pokémon yang satu ini.	This card's illustration has my favorite composition thus far, compared to the others. Capturing the "mischievous" essence of Impidimp is surely a unique but fun challenge! Soon after I finished this illustration, I ended up collecting a few Impidimp plushies because I truly became in love with this Pokémon.
