Front
Centering Measurements
Excellent front centering measures approximately 55/45 left-right and 53/47 top-bottom, with the left yellow border modestly wider. The measured ratios remain within the 55/45 threshold.
Back
Centering Measurements
Good back centering measures approximately 56/44 left-right and 54/46 top-bottom, with the left-right axis limiting. The horizontal shift is modest and does not indicate a severe centering issue.
Front Side
Corner Close-ups (Front)
Corners
9/10The upper-left yellow corner retains a defined point with no confirmed fiber exposure or structural lift visible at the available image resolution.
At the upper-right yellow border, the corner geometry remains intact; bright areas are consistent with lighting reflection rather than confirmed whitening.
The lower-left yellow corner shows a slight softness at the apex, but no definite crease, bend, or exposed cardstock is resolved.
The lower-right corner meets the yellow border cleanly with a preserved point and no visible lift or material loss.
Analysis: Front corners are generally sharp and structurally flat. The lower-left apex is slightly less defined than the other corners, producing a minor close-inspection concern without confirmed whitening. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
10/10The top yellow edge is continuous from corner to corner, with no confirmed chip or rough fiber exposure.
The lower yellow edge remains substantially smooth beneath the rules text, with no definite white flecks resolved.
The left yellow edge follows a straight factory-cut line; reflected brightness near the border does not show confirmed coating loss.
The right yellow edge is visibly continuous beside the artwork and text area, without a confirmed chip, nick, or fuzzy section.
Analysis: Front edges present clean, continuous yellow borders with no confirmed whitening, chipping, or roughness. Reflections limit microscopic certainty but do not provide sufficient evidence for a deduction.
Surface
10/10No analysis available
Analysis: Front surface inspection covers the portrait, name area, attack text, and lower rules text. Reflection bands are broad and lighting-related, while no defined physical surface defect is resolved.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
10/10The physical top-left back corner, corresponding to the opposite side of the photo, appears rounded only by perspective with no confirmed fiber exposure.
The top-right physical back corner has a clean blue perimeter and no visible bend, lift, or cardstock exposure.
The lower-left physical back corner maintains a continuous blue edge with no confirmed structural damage.
The bottom-right physical back corner remains intact and pointed, with no clearly resolved whitening or corner fold.
Location: back bottom-left corner
A clear white cardstock fleck is exposed at the dark-blue bottom-left corner edge.

White cardstock exposure and small flecks are visible along the rounded dark-blue bottom-right corner and adjacent bottom edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Back corners appear clean and flat against the blue card perimeter. No confirmed whitening, rounding, lift, or bend is visible in the submitted back image.
Edges
10/10The top blue physical edge is straight and uninterrupted, with no resolved white fleck or delamination.
The bottom blue edge remains continuous around the lower logo area and shows no confirmed material loss.
The physical left back edge appears clean beside the blue frame, with no clearly visible roughness or exposed cardstock.
The physical right back edge retains an even blue perimeter and no confirmed edge chip or whitening.
Location: back bottom edge
A small exposed light fleck is visible along the lower cut edge near the rounded left corner.

A tiny white cardstock fleck is visible on the blue border near the lower-middle area.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: back right edge
A small white fleck is visible at the lower rounded edge/corner cut.

Tiny white cardstock flecks are visible along the lower rounded cut edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Back edges appear smooth and intact across the visible blue perimeter. No confirmed whitening, chipping, fuzzing, or structural edge damage is visible.
Surface
10/10No analysis available
Analysis: The back surface remains visually uniform across the blue border, logo, and central Poké Ball design. Reflection changes follow the lighting and do not form a confirmed card-surface defect.
