Atsushi Furusawa has been illustrating Pokémon cards since 2021. He made his Pokémon TCG debut after applying to the first Pokémon Trading Card Game Illustration Grand Prix in 2018. Since then, he was in charge of the art for the promo cards given out as early purchase bonuses for the Pokémon Legends: Arceus, Pokémon Scarlet, and Pokémon Violet games. He likes Pokémon that have simple shapes, especially Magnemite. For the Pokémon Illustration Contest 2024, he was interviewed and talked about his thoughts and techniques that go into the process he uses to create his art.
He was one of the Illustrator Judges for the 2024 TCG Illustration Contest and they were quoted saying: "Four years ago, I took part in this contest and submitted my art. I can hardly believe that now I'll be sitting on the other side judging submissions. "
