LoRA trained to recreate the iconic official Pokémon art style of Ken Sugimori (early to mid-series era, roughly Gen 1–5 / 1996–2013). Clean, crisp, hand-drawn anime linework with bold black outlines, smooth flat cel-shading, bright saturated primary colors (classic Pokémon palette: vivid reds, blues, yellows, greens), soft airbrushed gradients for highlights and subtle shadows, glossy specular shine on eyes/hair/metallic surfaces, cute yet slightly realistic proportions for Pokémon and trainers, expressive big sparkling eyes, dynamic yet balanced poses, simple clean backgrounds or minimal environmental detail to keep focus on character/creature.

Perfect for authentic Pokémon-style portraits, trainer redesigns, official-looking Pokémon art, nostalgic Gen 1–5 vibe, clean colorful anime aesthetic with that unmistakable Sugimori charm.

Usage tips:

• Strength: 0.65–0.95 (sweet spot usually 0.75–0.85)

• Negative prompt suggestions: dark colors, muted palette, realistic shading, soft gradients, 3D render, modern pokemon style, low contrast, sketchy lines, heavy shadows

Best for: Pokémon redesigns, trainer + Pokémon duo art, nostalgic official card/game art recreations, clean colorful portraits, anything that needs that pure Ken Sugimori "Pokémon feels" look.

Gotta catch 'em all in style. ⚡🐉
