Front

Centering Measurements
Excellent front centering measures approximately 54/46 left-right and 51/49 top-bottom, with left-right as the limiting axis. The textured foil-frame design makes exact border measurement approximate.
Back

Centering Measurements
Excellent back centering measures approximately 52/48 left-right and 51/49 top-bottom. The blue border remains proportionate around the Pokémon card-back artwork.
Front Side
Corner Close-ups (Front)
Corners
10/10The top-left front corner has a clean rounded factory profile against the pink and blue foil frame, with no confirmed white fiber exposure.
At the top-right front corner, the silver-pink frame reaches the edge cleanly and the corner shows no visible rounding beyond the designed profile.
The bottom-left front corner remains well defined where the blue and purple frame meets the cut edge, with no visible chipping or lift.
The lower-right front corner appears intact against the purple foil border; no physical whitening, compression, or bent corner is confirmed.
Analysis: All four front corners were inspected for fiber exposure, rounding, compression, and lift. The foil-frame color remains continuous to each visible apex, with no confirmed corner handling defect.
Edges
8/10The front top edge follows the pink and blue foil frame with a continuous, clean cut and no confirmed whitening.
Along the front bottom edge, the purple and blue frame meets the perimeter evenly; no chipping or rough fibers are visible.
The front left edge beside the blue foil accents appears straight and intact, with no isolated white flecks or fuzzing detected.
The right front edge bordering the pink artwork remains clean and continuous, without visible coating loss or edge dents.
Location: front bottom edge
A visibly rough, speckled run of light cardstock exposure extends along the dark bottom edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: The front perimeter was scanned from corner to corner for whitening, chips, roughness, and edge deformation. No confirmed handling defect is visible on the colored foil-frame edges. Magnified zoom inspection subsequently found: moderate whitening (bottom edge) — this score reflects those findings.
Surface
10/10No analysis available
Analysis: The pink, blue, purple, and black textured foil areas were reviewed across the visible surface for scratches, flattened texture, print lines, and indentations. No physical surface defect is confirmed; reflection bands are photographic glare.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
10/10The top-left back corner is crisp against the royal-blue border, with the printed blue coating extending cleanly to the tip.
The upper-right back corner retains a defined point beside the blue perimeter and shows no visible white fleck or softening.
The bottom-left back corner is intact where the blue border meets the edge, without observable fiber exposure or impact damage.
The bottom-right back corner maintains clean geometry against the blue field, with no confirmed rounding, lift, or coating loss.
Analysis: The four back corners show sharp, intact geometry against the blue Pokémon card-back border. Close inspection of the submitted image reveals no confirmed whitening, bending, or corner compression.
Edges
9/10The top back edge presents a smooth royal-blue cut line with no visible white interruption or fraying.
The lower back edge remains even across the blue border, with no confirmed chipping or exposed cardstock.
The physical left back edge appears straight beside the blue border and shows no distinct whitening or roughness.
The right back edge is cleanly defined against the background, with the blue coating intact and no visible edge damage.
Location: back left edge
A small white nick/fleck is visible on the dark-blue left edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: All four back edges appear clean and factory cut. The uniform blue perimeter shows no confirmed flecks, chipping, fuzzing, or structural edge irregularity. 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 blue perimeter and central Poké Ball artwork were inspected across the visible back surface. The print remains uniform with no confirmed handling-related surface defect.
