Midori Harada has been part of the Pokémon world since 1996, though she only began illustrating cards with the Aquapolis expansion, debuting with Cubone, Eevee and Houndour. Her work is recognised under the personal banner "Aire Verte" — calm European landscapes that also fed into the official regional maps and game guidebooks for Kanto, Johto, Hoenn and Sinnoh. Across more than 360 TCG cards she has kept that quiet, scenic sensibility, and she has confirmed in passing that her own first card subject, Cubone, remains her favourite Pokémon.
