How Pokémon Sword And Shield's Art Director James Turner Draws Pokémon

by Ben Hanson on Oct 14, 2019 at 11:11 AM

While visiting Game Freak for our latest cover story on Pokémon Sword And Shield, we spoke with the new game's art director James Turner about the history of the Galar region and how his experience in the U.K. influenced the design. Thankfully, we also had time for Turner to show and explain his process for drawing Pokémon. Watch the video above to see Turner draw Vanillite and talk about his unexpected journey to working at Game Freak. Also, thanks to his generous donation, we'll be auctioning off James' drawing for charity during this year's Extra Life stream on November 2. Tune in!
