Corner Close-ups (Front)
Corners
9/10The upper-left yellow corner retains a defined apex with no confirmed fiber exposure or rounding visible at the available image resolution.
At the upper-right yellow frame, the corner point appears crisp and flat without visible whitening or lift.
The lower-left corner against the pale yellow border remains pointed; no definite white fiber or compression is visible.
The lower-right yellow corner shows intact geometry and no confirmed rounding, bend, or exposed cardstock.
Analysis: All four front corners retain sharp geometry with no confirmed whitening, rounding, lift, or structural damage. The visible yellow border continues cleanly into each apex. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
9/10The top yellow edge around the Dark Gloom name area appears straight and clean, without a confirmed chip or rough section.
Along the lower yellow edge beneath the rules text, the cut line remains continuous with no clearly physical whitening.
The left yellow edge beside the artwork and text panel appears even and factory-cut; bright areas are consistent with lighting rather than confirmed coating loss.
The right yellow perimeter next to the HP and text area remains straight, with no visible chipping or fuzzing.
Location: front left edge
A small isolated white fiber/fleck is visible along the outer left cut edge near the upper-middle portion.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: The four front edges appear clean and straight, with no confirmed whitening, chipping, fuzzing, or edge deformation. Reflections in the photograph were not treated as physical defects. Magnified zoom inspection subsequently found: faint whitening visible only under magnification (left edge) — this score reflects those findings.
Surface
10/10No analysis available
Analysis: The front surface appears clean across the artwork, text panel, and yellow frame. Inspection at the available image resolution found no confirmed handling scratch, scuff, dent, or discoloration.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
8/10The card-relative upper-left back corner, appearing on the right side of the photograph, maintains a clean blue apex without visible fiber exposure.
The card-relative upper-right back corner shows a firm blue edge intersection with no confirmed softening or bend.
The card-relative lower-left corner appears square against the blue border, with no clear material loss at the tip.
The card-relative lower-right back corner remains flat and pointed; reflected light does not reveal a confirmed lift or crease.
Location: back bottom-left corner
Multiple white flecks and exposed-looking fibers are visible along the dark-blue bottom-left corner and adjacent bottom edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: The back corners appear sharp and structurally intact. No confirmed rounding, exposed fibers, corner lift, or bend is visible in the submitted photograph. Magnified zoom inspection subsequently found: moderate whitening (bottom-left corner) — this score reflects those findings.
Edges
8/10The card-relative top back edge bordering the upper blue field appears continuous and free of confirmed edge loss.
The card-relative bottom back edge beneath the inverted logo remains smooth, with no clearly visible whitening or rough cut.
The card-relative left edge, shown on the right side of the back photograph, retains an even blue perimeter without a confirmed chip.
The card-relative right edge beside the blue Pokémon field appears straight and intact from corner to corner.
Location: back top edge
Several white flecks interrupt the dark-blue coating along the top cut edge.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: back bottom edge
Multiple small white flecks are visible along the dark-blue bottom edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: All four back edges appear intact and smoothly cut. No confirmed white flecks, chipping, fuzzing, or structural distortion is visible. Magnified zoom inspection subsequently found: moderate whitening (top edge); moderate whitening (bottom edge) — this score reflects those findings.
Surface
10/10No analysis available
Location: back upper-left area of the surface
A small exposed-white area is visible at the upper-left rounded cut corner.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: The back surface shows no confirmed scratches, scuffs, white dots, dents, stains, or holo disruption. The visible bright areas follow the lighting and do not form card-bounded damage.
