Corners
7/10The yellow border at the upper-left tip shows visible whitening and slight rounding, with the corner point no longer fully crisp.
The upper-right yellow corner remains defined but shows mild softening along the outer tip.
The lower-left corner retains its general shape, with a small bright wear point against the yellow border.
The lower-right yellow corner is comparatively intact, though its apex is mildly softened.
Location: front bottom-left corner
Thin exposed white material is visible along the lower-left curved cut edge, especially near the corner.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Front corners show distributed wear, led by visible rounding at the top-left and lighter softening or whitening at the other three tips. The count and visibility of the corner wear support a score of 7. This face shows 7/10 to match the corners score the three independent evaluations agreed on.
Edges
7/10The top yellow edge is largely continuous but has small interruptions and light whitening near the upper-left section.
The bottom yellow edge shows scattered whitening, most visible toward the lower corners, while the cut remains straight.
The left yellow edge has visible wear and a slightly roughened appearance around the upper and lower sections.
The right yellow edge is cleaner than the opposite side but still contains isolated whitening near the corner regions.
Analysis: Front edges show visible distributed whitening and localized roughness, particularly along the top, bottom, and left sides. The right edge is comparatively cleaner, but the overall edge condition supports a score of 7. This face shows 7/10 to match the edges score the three independent evaluations agreed on.
Surface
7/10No analysis available
Location: front surface, lower text area and around the artwork frame
Front surface, especially below the attack text and along the artwork frame → broad uneven dulling and discoloration → extended areas rather than a single line → muted red-orange and pale patches interrupt the surrounding printed finish.
Analysis: Front surface condition is affected by broad visible discoloration and uneven gloss across the lower text area and around the artwork frame. No confirmed crease or deep scratch is visible, but the surface wear is noticeable without searching, supporting a score of 7.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)




Corners
7/10The physical top-left back corner, appearing on the right side of the back photograph, has a rounded profile with visible edge wear against the blue field.
The physical top-right back corner, appearing on the left side of the back photograph, is slightly blunted but remains intact.
The physical bottom-left back corner shows modest rounding along the blue perimeter.
The physical bottom-right back corner is worn at the apex, with a small loss of crispness visible against the blue field.
Analysis: The back corners display moderate handling wear concentrated at the physical top-left corner, with lesser rounding at the remaining tips. No corner lift or bent-corner deformation is visible; the overall back-corner score is 7. This face shows 7/10 to match the corners score the three independent evaluations agreed on.
Edges
7/10The red-lined top edge of the blue back is mostly intact, with slight whitening toward the left-side corner area.
The lower blue edge retains a clean straight outline but shows small pale wear points near the corners.
The physical left back edge, visible on the right side of the back photograph, shows a worn perimeter with minor whitening.
The physical right back edge, visible on the left side of the back photograph, is comparatively smooth with one small pale interruption.
Analysis: The back edges are generally straighter and cleaner than the front but retain visible whitening, especially along the physical left edge. The distributed edge wear supports a score of 7. This face shows 7/10 to match the edges score the three independent evaluations agreed on.
Surface
7/10No analysis available
Location: back surface, central Poké Ball and lower blue field
Back center and lower field → broad cloudy sheen variation and surface dulling → extended irregular areas → red, white, and navy-blue printed zones show uneven reflectivity.
Analysis: The back surface displays noticeable broad wear and uneven reflectivity rather than a clean uniform finish. The condition is consistent with a moderately played vintage card and supports a score of 7.
