nagimiso (凝水そう) has illustrated 161 Japanese-language Pokemon TCG prints, according to Limitless’s exact-artist search — a catalog that opens with two Team Aqua and Team Magma EX cards from 2015’s Double Crisis and, a decade later, is still adding Special Art Rares to the Scarlet & Violet and MEGA eras. In between sits a three-card Special Art Rare release of Paradox-Pokemon ex cards, an Art Rare Team Rocket print, and a two-part connected Stadium card from July 2026’s Storm Emeralda.
One of those prints — the Mega Scrafty ex Special Art Rare from November 2025’s MEGA Dream ex — is currently in our PSA 10 vault. This guide covers that card alongside nagimiso’s other notable Special Art Rare and Art Rare prints, the sealed booster boxes that carry them, and what’s confirmed about nagimiso’s work in Pokemon TCG Pocket.
nagimiso (凝水そう) has illustrated 161 Japanese-language Pokemon TCG prints per Limitless’s exact-artist search (149 per Serebii’s reprint-inclusive Cardex count), debuting in 2015’s Double Crisis before returning to the catalog with Burning Shadows. In stock now: PSA 10 Mega Scrafty ex SAR, M2a 241/193 (更新:当前售罄 — 可通过 Quick Order 申请补货), currently listed at ¥8,972. For sealed product, the Cyber Judge Booster Box is currently listed from ¥10,200 and carries nagimiso’s Iron Leaves ex, Iron Crown ex, and Iron Boulder ex trio.
Who Is nagimiso?
nagimiso’s Japanese-language name, per Bulbapedia, is 凝水そう. Limitless’s exact-artist search (artist:"nagimiso" lang:jp) returns 161 Japanese-language Pokemon TCG prints, the figure used throughout this guide for card count. Serebii’s Cardex, which counts reprints and uses its own methodology, lists 149 cards for the same artist. Neither number is wrong — they’re measuring the catalog through different counting rules, and we keep them separate rather than blending them into one headline figure.
Per Serebii’s Cardex, nagimiso’s first credited prints were Team Aqua’s Kyogre-EX and Team Magma’s Groudon-EX, both from 2015’s Double Crisis — a small-format expansion built around the Team Aqua/Team Magma rivalry rather than a mainline numbered set. After that debut, roughly two and a half years pass with no further credited prints in the Cardex record before nagimiso reappears during the Burning Shadows era and becomes a far more frequent contributor from that point forward — a pattern that shows up clearly across the Scarlet & Violet and MEGA-era Special Art Rares covered below, which cluster almost entirely in 2024 through 2026.
That means most of nagimiso’s highest-profile work sits in a fairly narrow, recent window. Rather than a decade of steady output, the catalog reads more like an early one-off contribution followed by a concentrated, multi-year run once the Scarlet & Violet era got underway — three Special Art Rares in Cyber Judge alone, plus further ex and Trainer prints across five more sets through mid-2026.
nagimiso’s catalog sits alongside other illustrators we track closely, including sui and kirisAki, both of whom have their own guides covering their most notable printings.

In Stock Now: PSA 10 Mega Scrafty ex SAR

Mega Scrafty ex, card 241 of 193 in November 2025’s MEGA Dream ex set, is a Special Art Rare and the nagimiso print currently sitting in our PSA 10 vault. Special Art Rare is the full-illustration rarity tier that carries the Pokemon over an alternate, scene-style background rather than the standard card frame — the tier where nagimiso’s recent headline prints sit. Mega Scrafty ex is the most direct way to own a confirmed nagimiso illustration today rather than tracking a restock. A PSA 10 copy is currently listed at ¥8,972 (更新:当前售罄 — 可通过 Quick Order 申请补货).
MEGA Dream ex belongs to the same MEGA-era run as Storm Emeralda, and it’s where nagimiso’s 2025 output lands alongside the Cyber Judge and Inferno X prints covered below. For the wider MEGA Dream ex chase-card lineup, see our MEGA Dream ex set guide.
The Cyber Judge Trio: Iron Leaves, Iron Crown & Iron Boulder ex
Cyber Judge, released January 26, 2024, is where nagimiso illustrated a three-card run of Paradox-Pokemon ex Special Art Rares back to back — Iron Leaves ex, Iron Crown ex, and Iron Boulder ex, three consecutive card numbers in the same set. Iron Leaves, Iron Crown, and Iron Boulder belong to the Paradox Pokemon group introduced in the Scarlet & Violet era — alternate, ancient-or-future-styled forms of existing species — and Cyber Judge’s future-styled trio all landed together as consecutive Special Art Rares from the same illustrator, rather than being spread across separate sets.
Running three ex Special Art Rares back to back on consecutive card numbers, all from the same illustrator, is the clearest single showcase of nagimiso’s SV-era output in one set. For the full Cyber Judge lineup, see our Cyber Judge set guide. Sealed Cyber Judge product is the direct route to all three — see the box listing in the Where to Buy section below.
Mega Sharpedo ex and Team Rocket’s Houndoom

Mega Sharpedo ex, M2 113/080, is a Special Art Rare from September 26, 2025’s Inferno X — nagimiso’s other MEGA-era ex print alongside Mega Scrafty ex. For the rest of the Inferno X lineup, see our Inferno X set guide.

Team Rocket’s Houndoom, SV10 100/098, is an Art Rare from April 18, 2025’s Glory of Team Rocket — a different rarity tier from the ex Special Art Rares above, and the one entry in nagimiso’s catalog covered here that sits in the Team Rocket subset rather than a mainline ex or Paradox-Pokemon line. Art Rare sits a step below Special Art Rare in most Scarlet & Violet-era sets, typically pairing a Pokemon with an expanded background illustration rather than a full alternate scene. For the full Glory of Team Rocket lineup, see our Glory of Team Rocket set guide, or browse our wider Team Rocket cards guide.
The M6 Stadium Card and M5’s ムク

Storm Emeralda, released July 31, 2026, carries a nagimiso print outside the ex/SAR pattern entirely: 伝説の山顶, card 73, a Stadium printed at Uncommon. It’s one half of a two-part connected Stadium — card 73 pairs with card 74 to form a single connected image across both cards, a printing style Storm Emeralda used for several of its Stadium slots. We cover how that two-part mechanic works, and the full set of connected Stadiums in Storm Emeralda, in our two-part Stadium card guide for Storm Emeralda.
Abyss Eye, released May 22, 2026, carries the other non-ex nagimiso print covered here: ムク, card 111, a Trainer at Super Rare. Its printed card text lets a player discard up to two Pokemon from their hand — excluding Pokemon with a Rule Box, such as ex or V cards — and draw three cards for each Pokemon discarded that way. For the rest of the Abyss Eye lineup, see our Abyss Eye set guide.
Beyond the Cards: nagimiso in Pokemon TCG Pocket
nagimiso’s work extends into Pokemon TCG Pocket, the mobile card game, where nagimiso is credited with 37 cards since the app’s Genetic Apex launch, per Serebii’s Pocket Cardex. That’s a separate catalog from the physical TCG prints covered above — TCG Pocket runs its own card set with its own numbering, so the 37-card Pocket count and the 161-card physical-print count aren’t directly comparable, but together they show nagimiso’s output spans both the paper game and its mobile counterpart.
Beyond the TCG Pocket credit and the print catalog covered above, no further biographical or commercial detail about nagimiso has been confirmed through the sources this guide relies on, so we don’t speculate beyond what’s documented.
