"Rediscovering the True Art of Pokémon: Archivists Share High-Quality Scans of Originals"

Pokémon archivist Lewtwo and software developer Christopher Wells are working to upload high-quality scans of the original 251 Pokémon artwork, preserving Ken Sugimori's artwork with as much accuracy as possible. The scans reveal details that were not noticeable before, reminding fans that the art they admire is all made by people. The process of preserving artwork is important for understanding the history of media, and even new content needs to be preserved for future generations.
