Front
Centering Measurements
Excellent centering at approximately 53/47 left-right and 52/48 top-bottom, with the left border slightly wider than the right. The measured ratios remain within the 55/45 threshold.
Back
Centering Measurements
Good internal centering at approximately 55/45 left-right and 58/42 top-bottom, using the logo, central Poké Ball, and blue frame as anchors. The back is borderless in presentation, so traditional printed-border measurement is unavailable.

Corner Close-ups (Front)
Corners
8/10The upper-left corner meets the orange-yellow frame with a defined point; no confirmed rounding or structural lift is visible.
At the HP and Fire-symbol side, the corner remains geometrically intact with no confirmed white fiber exposure.
The lower-left tip beside the illustrator and number area appears slightly softened, with a small pale edge spot against the orange frame.
The lower-right corner beside the descriptive text retains its point, although the perimeter shows mild surface brightness from the lighting.
Location: front top-left corner
Multiple pale exposed flecks and a roughened light line are visible along the dark rounded top-left cut edge.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: front bottom-left corner
The rounded bottom-left cut edge shows a visibly pale, roughened band with exposed fibers.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Front corners are generally well defined, with one minor close-inspection fiber-like spot at the bottom-left tip. No bent, lifted, folded, or heavily rounded corner is visible. Magnified zoom inspection subsequently found: moderate whitening (top-left corner); moderate whitening (bottom-left corner) — this score reflects those findings.
Edges
7/10The top edge along the silver frame shows a rough, mottled perimeter with scattered pale exposure across an extended portion.
The bottom edge beneath the copyright line has visible pale spotting and an uneven-looking cut, particularly toward the left and center.
The left edge beside the orange card frame appears visibly rough with multiple light-colored spots along its length.
The right edge beside the HP and attack-text panels has a comparatively continuous blue perimeter, though isolated pale specks are visible.
Location: front top edge
Multiple pale flecks and mottled exposed material are visible along the dark top edge near the left corner.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: front left edge
Multiple small white fiber flecks and a slightly roughened run are visible along the dark left cut edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Front edges show distributed roughness and whitening, strongest along the left edge and lower perimeter. The damage is visible on close inspection but does not show major chipping or material loss. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 7/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Surface
7/10No analysis available
Location: lower-center front surface, across the attack text panel
Lower-center front surface → diffuse pale and dull patches interrupt the orange finish → extended irregular area across the lower text panel → reduced orange saturation and gray-white haze contrast with the surrounding peach-orange background.
Location: front upper-left area of the surface
Multiple light cardstock flecks are visible along the dark top border near the upper-left corner.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: front lower-left area of the surface
Multiple white fiber-like flecks and roughness are visible along the dark blue bottom border and around the lower-left corner.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: front lower-right area of the surface
Multiple pale flecks and worn-looking areas are visible along the lower blue border near the bottom-right edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Front surface condition is reduced by visible diffuse scuffing or gloss loss across the lower orange text area and footer region. No confirmed deep scratch, indentation, stain, or crease is visible.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
9/10The physical top-left corner, adjacent to the blue field and white swirl, remains pointed without confirmed material loss.
The top-right corner beside the upper Pokémon logo area is angular and intact, with no confirmed rounding.
The physical bottom-left corner near the reversed logo has a clean outline and no distinct white fiber exposure.
The lower-right tip against the blue frame appears crisp, with the surrounding blue coating continuing to the corner.
Analysis: Back corners retain sharp geometry across the blue outer frame. No confirmed whitening, rounding, lift, bend, or compression is visible at the available image resolution. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
7/10The blue top edge above the Pokémon logo is straight overall, with a few small pale points interrupting the otherwise continuous blue.
The blue bottom edge below the reversed logo remains largely even, with slight light spotting near the corners.
The physical left edge, appearing on the right side of the back photograph, shows a mostly smooth blue cut with minor pale speckling.
The physical right edge, appearing on the left side of the back photograph, has the cleanest visible blue perimeter with no distinct continuous whitening.
Location: back top edge
Multiple small white flecks are visible along the dark blue top cut edge.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: back bottom edge
A visibly rough, pale fiber-exposed run follows the lower cut edge.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: back bottom edge
A thin uneven whitish fiber-exposed line is visible along the lower edge near the rounded corner.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: back left edge
Multiple small white flecks are visible along the dark blue left edge near the lower rounded corner.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Back edges are cleaner than the front, with minor isolated pale specks along three sides. No heavy chipping, delamination, or major edge deformation is visible. Magnified zoom inspection subsequently found: moderate whitening (top edge); moderate whitening (bottom edge); moderate whitening (bottom edge) +1 more — this score reflects those findings.
Surface
8/10No analysis available
Location: back lower-left area of the surface
Several small white flecks are visible on the dark blue left border.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Back surface remains visually clean under the reflected lighting, with no confirmed scratches, scuffs, dents, white dots, or holo disruption. Bright bands are broad reflections across the glossy blue design rather than physical damage. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 8/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Confidence Level: High
Grade Uncertainty: ±1
Grade B — Good
Minor issues with lighting or focus. Reliable grading with minimal uncertainty in fine details.
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.
