Fans took note of a few suspicious entries in the illustration contest among the top 300 finalists

The Pokémon Company holds regular illustration contests for fans to submit their artwork to possibly be used as official art for Pokémon trading cards, more recently made available to artists in the U.S. However, the company’s 2024 competition has had a new, not-so-fun wrinkle of controversy as AI-generated art has weaseled its way into the top 300 entries, and fans are not too happy that it passed through the company’s vetting process undetected.

The statement stops short of specifying what rules were broken or naming anyone that will be removed from the top 300, but says that other submitted entries will be added to the top 300 finalists to replace those disqualified. As of this writing, several of the pieces fans accused of being AI still appear on the contest’s website.
