Special Features
Front
Centering Measurements
Excellent centering, with an estimated 54/46 left-right ratio and 52/48 top-bottom ratio. The yellow outer borders remain close in width, with the left and bottom margins modestly broader.
Back
Centering Measurements
Excellent back centering, with approximately 53/47 left-right and 51/49 top-bottom proportions. The blue frame is close to evenly positioned around the printed field.

Corners
8/10The top-left yellow corner remains generally square, although the holder glare limits inspection of the exact apex.
At the top-right yellow corner, the outer geometry appears intact with no confirmed bend or lift visible through the holder.
The bottom-left yellow corner shows slight softening and a small area of edge wear near the blue logo.
The bottom-right yellow corner remains defined, with no clear crease, lift, or substantial material loss visible.
Analysis: Front corners are mostly defined, but the bottom-left corner shows minor softening and pale wear against the yellow border. No structural lift or bent corner is confirmed. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 8/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
8/10The top yellow edge is straight overall, with mild surface glare and no clearly localized chipping confirmed.
The bottom yellow edge has a clean outline, though small pale interruptions near the lower-left logo suggest minor edge wear.
The left yellow edge remains straight beside the illustration, with no continuous whitening or rough fiber line visible.
The right yellow edge is intact along the text panel and does not show a clearly defined chip or exposed cardstock segment.
Location: front left edge
A continuous rough, pale fiber-like run follows the exposed outer left cut edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Front edges are mostly intact, with minor pale wear visible along the lower edge near the set logo. No continuous chipping, delamination, or structural edge deformation is confirmed. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 8/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Surface
6/10No analysis available
Location: front artwork, left-center near Pichu's ears and body
Several pale irregular linear marks cross the dark holographic artwork and interrupt the surrounding foil reflection.
Location: front artwork, center-right sky and treeline
Additional diagonal and short linear disruptions are visible across the purple-gray holographic background, distinct from the printed illustration.
Analysis: Front surface condition is reduced by multiple visible scratches or scuff-like disruptions across the holographic artwork. The marks are plainly noticeable and interrupt the reflective pattern, producing a surface score of 6.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
9/10The top-left blue back corner appears square, with the holder edge contributing some glare but no confirmed corner damage.
The top-right blue corner retains a clear point and shows no visible white fiber exposure at the available resolution.
The bottom-left blue corner is slightly less crisp than the opposite lower corner, but no definite bend or material loss is visible.
The bottom-right blue corner maintains its rectangular outline with no confirmed whitening or lift.
Analysis: Back corners appear generally sharp and structurally intact. Holder glare limits microscopic confirmation, but no definite whitening, crease, or bent corner is visible.
Edges
9/10The upper blue edge is straight, although diffuse holder reflection makes the surface boundary less distinct.
The lower blue edge retains a consistent factory-cut line with no isolated white flecks clearly resolved.
The physical left edge is represented on the right side of the flipped back image and appears even with no confirmed chipping.
The physical right edge, shown on the left side of the back image, remains cleanly outlined against the background.
Analysis: Back edges appear straight and largely clean beneath the holder glare. No definite whitening, fuzzing, chipping, or edge deformation is visible.
Surface
7/10No analysis available
Analysis: The back surface is visually cleaner than the front, although glare and the holder prevent high-confidence inspection of the finest marks. No definite physical scratch, dent, or coating loss is confirmed. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 7/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
