Speaking of Ken Sugimori, there's an upcoming artbook of his works through his career.

Ken Sugimori? He's the main designer of Pokemon and does ALL the artwork in the main games.

........oh lord. Never going to NOT see it ever again. THANKS.
I love it. If it were Devianart-ish, it'd be way overdone, but this is just right. You can tell it's Sugimori by Peach's face -- looks like one of the Pokémon gym leaders:

Not to be "that guy", but to be that guy, I agree. I thought it was fanart when I first saw it (I mean the "okay" kind, not the "godly" or even "very good" kind).
It's cool that Ken made a picture for Greninja's inclusion, it really is, but this is some of the weaker work I've seen of his.

Sugimori seems to like drawing Peach.

Looks great and I'll probably preorder that book soon.
His Toon Link is charming too but his Peach is fantastic.
She's always got her hands on her hips. Why she so angry for
Because she knows you're looking at her with your pervy eyes!

So everyone else is in fight poses and Peach...sticks her ass in the air?
Toon Link especially. Like holy fuck.
That's one of her attacks
I don't know man, I'm pretty sure I've seen her do a move like that on previous smash games

I like it. Peach looks cooler in that style.

Yeah, I agree. I think his watercolor work is significantly better than this.
I would definitely be interested in picking this up if I could find a way to import it...

Great art, I guess it was released for the Smash Nintendo Direct that happened today?
Cool, no wonder Charizard and Pikachu look so good.

I don't like this :/ feels like every element on the picture overlaps each other, when he clearly wanted the emphasis on Greninja, so it kinda clashes. And the work in the coloring aspect it's really bland...
But i'm thinking this could have probably been a fast made piece so i won't complain, specially with the man who gave life to the pokemon designs.
