Front
Centering Measurements
Excellent front centering: left-right is approximately 54/46 and top-bottom approximately 52/48, with the left yellow border subtly wider than the right. The measured proportions remain within the 55/45 threshold.
Back
Centering Measurements
Excellent back centering: the left-right ratio is approximately 53/47 and top-bottom approximately 51/49. The slightly wider right blue border is consistent with the horizontal mirror relationship to the front.

Corner Close-ups (Front)
Corners
9/10The upper-left yellow corner retains a defined point with no confirmed white fiber exposure, rounding, or lift visible through the holder.
At the upper-right corner, the yellow border reaches a clean apex; no structural separation or visible cardstock exposure is present.
The lower-left corner appears square against the pale yellow frame, with no confirmed compression, softening, or corner whitening.
The lower-right yellow corner remains sharply formed and flat, with no visible bend, lift, or coating loss.
Analysis: All four front corners were examined at the available image resolution for fiber exposure, rounding, compression, and lift. The yellow border remains continuous to each apex, with no confirmed handling defect visible. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
9/10The upper yellow edge runs evenly above the Hitmonchan name area; no isolated whitening, chipping, or roughness is confirmed.
Along the lower yellow edge beneath the attack text, the factory cut appears continuous without visible white flecks or material loss.
The left yellow edge remains straight beside the artwork and text panel, with no confirmed fiber exposure or fuzzy cut texture.
The right yellow perimeter beside the HP and retreat-cost areas appears clean and even; holder reflections are not treated as card wear.
Analysis: All four front edges were scanned from corner to corner for whitening, chipping, roughness, and fuzzing. The visible bright lines outside the card boundary are consistent with holder reflections or scratches rather than card-edge damage. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Surface
9/10No analysis available
Location: front upper-left area of the surface
A faint diagonal surface line is visible across the lower portion of the artwork.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: The front surface was examined across the artwork, text panels, and holo background for scratches, scuffs, indentations, print defects, and pattern disruption. The visible foil pattern remains continuous; holder glare limits certainty but does not provide evidence of a card-surface defect. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
9/10The physical upper-left back corner, shown at the right side of the back photograph, maintains a clean blue edge and pointed geometry.
The upper-right physical corner shows an intact blue border with no visible white fleck, rounding, or raised edge.
The lower-left physical corner appears crisp where the blue border meets the swirling white artwork, without visible fiber exposure.
The lower-right physical corner remains flat and well defined, with the blue coating extending cleanly around the tip.
Location: back bottom-right corner
Small exposed white fibering is visible along the lower-right cut edge near the rounded corner.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: The four physical back corners were checked individually, accounting for the mirrored back orientation. No confirmed whitening, rounding, compression, or corner lift is visible against the blue border. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
9/10The physical top edge of the blue Pokémon back is straight and intact, with no confirmed coating loss along the border.
The bottom blue edge beneath the inverted logo remains smooth in the visible card area, without white cardstock exposure.
The physical left edge, appearing on the right side of the back photograph, shows a continuous blue cut with no confirmed chipping or fuzzing.
The physical right edge beside the blue swirl pattern is cleanly defined, with no visible isolated whitening or edge nick.
Location: back top edge
Tiny white flecks are visible along the dark-blue top border near the right side.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: back bottom edge
Multiple white flecks and short exposed-paper marks are visible along the dark-blue bottom edge.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: back left edge
Several small white flecks are visible along the dark-blue left edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: The back perimeter was inspected using the card-relative edge names and the horizontal mirror rule. No physical edge whitening, chipping, roughness, or delamination is confirmed; surrounding marks belong to the holder or background. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Surface
9/10No analysis available
Location: back lower-left area of the surface
Small white cardstock flecks are visible along the lower blue border near the bottom edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: The back surface was scanned across the blue border, logo, Poké Ball, and white swirl regions. Bright streaks and specks outside or across the holder are not counted as card defects, and no physical surface damage is confirmed. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
