Every card credited to Saki Hayashiro
Every printing we can attribute to this artist, shown card by card: English first, then the Japanese printings that never had an English release, then the sets that only ever ran in Japan. Each printing is listed under its own language rather than merged, because a Japanese original and its English release are different cards to a collector. Cards whose official image is not in the open card databases are still listed, and say so.
- Sword & Shield Era 32 (2019–2023)
- Scarlet & Violet Era 8 (2023–2024)

Their Simplified Chinese cards
The Simplified Chinese print run — the cards we actually price and sell. Simplified Chinese cards have only been issued since 28 October 2022, so however long the career, it shows up here as the late Chinese slice of it.
