Arita has continued to produce illustrations since the very beginning of the TCG, and as a result, he is among the TCG's most prolific artists. Arita started doing art for the cards in their prototype stages, even before [[Pokémon Red and Green Versions]] had been released. Not knowing if they would be a success, he did not know how long the job would last. He said of the experience, "I was honestly worried about finding another project before the end of my contract." | Arita has continued to produce illustrations since the very beginning of the TCG, and as a result, he is among the TCG's most prolific artists.

Not knowing if they would be a success, he did not know how long the job would last. He said of the experience, "I was honestly worried about finding another project before the end of my contract." He was invited to the project by [[Keiji Kinebuchi]], and also designed the symbols for the first six {{TCG|Energy}} types.<ref>[https://twitter.com/MitsuhiroArita/status/1466208683558260741 @MitsuhiroArita]</ref> | ||
Arita’s coloring style has changed over the years. His earlier illustrations were often a mix of watercolor or pastel with distinct outlines, but he has developed a more fluid style that emphasizes the use of vibrant colors, as well as light and shadow to create dynamic and realistic looking images. Many of his images also use high and low angles or tilt to help achieve this. Thus far, Arita has illustrated {{PAGESINCATEGORY:Illus. by Mitsuhiro Arita}} cards.
