-In total, 5,343 entries were submitted. Fifty illustrations that passed the primary screening were published on the competition website on April 26, 2019. The top 8 entries were announced on May 30 and the final positions were announced during the 2019 Pokémon Japan Championships on June 8. One overall winner received ‎¥300,000, a trophy featuring their name and winning illustration, and had their artwork featured on an oversized TCG card; one runner-up received ‎¥100,000 and a trophy featuring their name and illustration. The website stated four entries as selected by the panel were to receive ‎¥50,000, yet five were ultimately included as part of the Judge's Award, as well as an additional Slowpoke Award, chosen due to its popularity amongst the panel. It is unknown if the additional Judge's and Slowpoke Award-winning entries were also given a prize. Entries deemed excellent by the panel were also approached by Creatures, Inc. to produce official artwork for the TCG. Of the fifty artists whose entries were published, nine have since illustrated official cards: winner [[Yuu Nishida]], runner-up [[Narumi Sato]], Slowpoke Award recipient [[Amelicart]]; as well as [[teeziro]], [[Atsushi Furusawa]], [[OKACHEKE]], [[Nagomi Nijo]], [[takuyoa]], and [[Souichirou Gunjima]].
