Which artist served as Pokémon Pokopia’s art director?

Marina Ayano served as the art director of Pokémon Pokopia.

Ayano is credited in the development information for guiding the game’s art direction. That role is distinct from the listed designer, Megumi Sawada, and from the composers Hiromu Akaba and Jieun Kim. Kanako Murata is credited as the game’s producer.

Pokopia’s visual direction supports its restoration-focused premise. The game begins in an abandoned and damaged environment, then lets players reshape terrain, construct structures, plant elements, and arrange habitats for Pokémon. The contrast between a worn landscape and a growing Pokémon community is central to the game’s presentation.

Marina Ayano is associated with Koei Tecmo, the company whose Omega Force studio co-developed the title with Game Freak. The game’s art credits therefore reflect the same cross-company collaboration that shaped its sandbox systems and its distinctive slow-life atmosphere.
