Tips for an illustrator binder
- Chronological or by Pokémon? Oldest-first shows how a style changes over the years. Grouping by Pokémon turns repeat subjects into satisfying rows.
- Start with what's affordable. Most of an illustrator's work is commons and uncommons, so the binder fills up fast before you chase the big cards.
- Add an art insert as a title page. See finding artwork for binder art inserts, including The Art of Pokémon's illustrator pages.
