Front

Centering Measurements
Perfect centering with front left/right borders approximately 52/48 and top/bottom borders approximately 55/45. The yellow outer border remains within the measured threshold, with the lower border marginally wider.
Back

Centering Measurements
Perfect back centering with approximately 52/48 left/right and 53/47 top/bottom proportions. The blue frame shows only a subtle horizontal shift and remains within the 55/45 threshold.

Front Side
Corner Close-ups (Front)
Corners
9/10The yellow border at the upper-left apex shows a slight softening with a small pale fiber exposure visible on close inspection.
Upper-right corner retains a defined point against the yellow frame, with no confirmed rounding or structural lift visible.
The lower-left yellow corner remains substantially pointed, though the tip is marginally less crisp than the adjacent straight edges.
Bottom-right corner maintains clear geometry against the yellow border without visible fiber loss, bending, or corner lift.
Analysis: The front corners are generally well-defined, with one pinpoint fiber exposure at the top-left tip. No bent, lifted, or materially rounded corner is visible; the single close-inspection flaw produces a face score of 9. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
10/10The upper yellow edge is straight and generally intact, with a faintly pale section near the left side that is not clearly separable from reflected light.
The lower yellow edge runs cleanly beneath the text box, with no confirmed chipping or exposed white cardstock.
The left yellow edge is continuous from corner to corner and shows no definite roughness, fuzzing, or isolated white fleck.
The right-side yellow perimeter remains even beside the artwork and lower text area, without a confirmed chip or whitening segment.
Analysis: The front edges appear straight and intact across the full visible perimeter. Brightness variation along the upper edge is consistent with lighting rather than confirmed coating loss, so no edge deduction is applied.
Surface
10/10No analysis available
Analysis: Front surface inspection covered the artwork, text panels, border, and lower rules for scratches, dots, scuffs, dents, and print disruption. No physical surface defect is confirmed; the visible sheen is attributed to glare.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
8/10The physical top-left back corner, appearing on the right side of the back photograph, has a clean blue frame and a stable pointed profile.
The top-right back corner shows a neat blue edge junction with no confirmed whitening or compression.
At the physical bottom-left corner, the blue border remains intact and the tip shows no visible fiber exposure at the available image resolution.
The lower-right back corner has a firm angular outline with no apparent lift, crease, or white cardstock exposure.
Location: back bottom-right corner
White cardstock is visibly exposed along the lower-right cut edge and corner tip.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: All four back corners retain sharp geometry within the blue frame. Close inspection checked for fiber exposure, rounding, compression, and lift; none is confirmed in the submitted photograph. Magnified zoom inspection subsequently found: moderate whitening (bottom-right corner) — this score reflects those findings.
Edges
10/10The blue top edge is smooth and uninterrupted, with the reflection band treated as lighting rather than physical whitening.
The lower blue edge maintains a clean factory-cut line with no visible material loss or fuzzing.
The physical left back edge, visible on the right side of the photograph, remains evenly blue and free of confirmed edge chips.
The physical right back edge, visible on the left side of the photograph, shows a continuous blue perimeter without white specks or rough fibers.
Analysis: The back edges show a continuous blue border and straight outline. No confirmed whitening, chipping, roughness, or edge deformation is visible.
Surface
10/10No analysis available
Analysis: The back surface was checked across the logo, Poké Ball, blue field, and lower perimeter. Reflection remains broad and soft rather than a defined card scratch, leaving the back surface at 10.
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.
