Corner Close-ups (Front)
Corners
9/10Yellow border reaches a defined apex with no clearly resolved fiber exposure or lift visible in the photograph.
The upper-right yellow corner retains its shape, although glare slightly limits fine inspection of the tip.
The lower-left yellow corner shows slight softening and a small pale area at the tip against the gold border.
Bottom-right corner remains substantially pointed with no definite lift, bend, or cardstock exposure resolved.
Analysis: Front corners are generally well preserved, with the bottom-left tip showing minor softening and pale wear. No corner lift, fold, or major rounding is visible. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
8/10The upper yellow edge is straight overall, with mild pale wear visible near the left-side run.
Bottom yellow edge is straight and largely intact, with subtle lightening near the lower-left transition.
The left yellow edge shows a few pale interruptions along the mid-to-lower section while remaining structurally straight.
Right yellow edge remains cleanly cut with no clearly resolved chipping or fiber exposure.
Analysis: Front edges show minor whitening along the top-left and left-side areas, while the right edge remains clean. The observed scattered wear places the front edge condition below pristine. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 8/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Surface
9/10No analysis available
Location: lower-center holofoil attack area
Lower-center front holofoil → faint linear reflection interruption → short, close-inspection extent → pale line contrasts with the green and orange reflective background, though glare limits certainty.
Analysis: Front surface is holographic and heavily affected by reflective glare. A faint possible holofoil line is visible in the lower-center area; no crease, dent, stain, or foil peeling is confirmed.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
9/10Blue border meets the upper-left physical corner cleanly, with no definite white fiber or deformation visible.
The upper-right blue corner maintains a firm pointed profile without visible material loss.
Lower-left blue corner appears intact and flat, with the border color extending to the tip.
Lower-right corner is visibly defined against the blue frame and shows no confirmed whitening or bend.
Location: back bottom-right corner
Small localized light exposure is visible along the lower-right corner cut edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Back corners appear sharp and structurally intact. The blue border reaches each visible apex without confirmed fiber exposure or rounding. Magnified zoom inspection subsequently found: faint whitening visible only under magnification (bottom-right corner) — this score reflects those findings.
Edges
9/10The upper blue edge is straight with an even printed boundary and no confirmed white flecks.
Lower blue edge remains intact and level, with no visible chipping across the examined run.
Physical left edge of the card, appearing on the right side of the back photograph, shows a smooth blue perimeter.
Physical right edge, appearing on the left side of the back photograph, is cleanly defined with no confirmed whitening.
Analysis: Back edges appear straight and clean, with the blue border continuous around the perimeter. No definite edge chipping, roughness, or whitening is resolved. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Surface
10/10No analysis available
Analysis: Back surface appears clean across the blue frame, logo field, and Poké Ball artwork. Reflection bands are consistent with lighting and are not treated as card damage.
Confidence Level: Moderate
Grade Uncertainty: ±2
Grade C — Fair
Moderate issues with glare, blur, or lighting during capture. Fine-detail assessment carries some uncertainty.
Raw Card — No Protective Case
Card photographed without protective covering. All features and defects fully visible for optimal assessment accuracy.
Grading confidence based on image clarity, protective case impact, defect detection certainty, and grade uncertainty.
