Something that has always interested me was why TPCi has never allowed any Western artists create art for the TCG. Sure there's a few exceptions like Snorlax, Mewtwo (which was really good IMO), and the Kids WB contest cards, but those were just promo cards. Since Pokémon is a global phenomenon and has been for years, I'm shocked that they have never recruited worldwide artists. I'm know there's some awesome artists out there in North America and Europe that could create great art for Pokémon cards.
The Unnamed Wizards set was supposed to contain all original cards created by Wizards with art by their own artists, but it never came to be obviously. With all of that said, would anyone be interested in cards in official expansions with artists outside of Japan? Would it break tradition? Should only Japanese artists create official card art? Post your thoughts here.
