Sanosuke Sakuma (Japanese: 佐久間さのすけ), born October 31, 1990, Kanagawa Prefecture, is a freelance illustrator who began providing artwork for the Pokémon Trading Card Game in 2013, with her first illustrations featured on cards released in the Shiny Collection. Following a lengthy career on the TCG, her first role on an official Pokémon game was as a character designer on Pokémon Sword and Shield, where she created many of the games' various Trainer Classes.

Sakuma states that she began drawing from an early age with a particular interest in anime and manga, and was head of a manga club while at high school and college. She specializes in producing artwork with cute characters and invoking a warm atmosphere, utilizing a specific color palette and soft drawing style. She also experiments with different styles, including anime, impasto, and watercolor, and likes to convey a sense of motion in images that require it.
