Corners
9/10The yellow top-left corner retains a defined point, with minor rounding visible along the outer apex.
The upper-right yellow corner is generally crisp, with a small bright edge reflection attributed to the holder rather than confirmed card whitening.
The lower-left yellow corner shows mild rounding and a softened outer profile near the blue e-reader mark.
The lower-right yellow corner remains substantially intact, with slight softening at the tip but no structural lift.
Analysis: Front corners show minor softening at the top-left, bottom-left, and bottom-right yellow corner tips. No corner lift, fold, or structural bend is visible. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
9/10The yellow top edge is mostly continuous, with scattered light flecks and holder glare near the upper border.
The lower yellow edge has a generally straight cut with light wear concentrated near the left and central sections.
The left yellow edge remains continuous, with mild wear visible around the lower half and no obvious chipping.
The right yellow edge appears cleanly cut, though a few bright points near the upper and lower runs may reflect minor edge wear.
Analysis: Front edges show scattered minor whitening rather than continuous chipping or roughness. The cut remains straight, and no structural edge lift is visible.
Surface
8/10No analysis available
Location: front upper artwork and lower text field
Several small pale spots are visible across the tan artwork and reddish text area → scattered minor extent → pale marks contrast with the warm brown, yellow, and red printed fields.
Analysis: Front surface is affected by multiple minor visible spots and uneven surface reflections, especially across the artwork and lower text field. No confirmed crease, deep scratch, or indentation is visible.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
8/10The physical top-left back corner, corresponding to the right side of the back photograph, has a rounded blue outer profile.
The physical top-right back corner retains a mostly defined blue apex with mild tip softening.
The physical bottom-left back corner appears rounded along the blue frame, with visible edge wear at the apex.
The physical bottom-right back corner is intact but not perfectly sharp, showing light softening of the blue border.
Analysis: Back corners show the strongest wear at the physical top-left and bottom-left corners, with moderate rounding against the blue border. No lifted corners or crease-related deformation is visible. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 8/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
9/10The blue top edge is intact but shows a narrow line of light wear along the upper perimeter.
The blue bottom edge has localized whitening near the corners but remains materially intact.
The physical left back edge, visible on the right side of the photograph, has light scattered whitening against the blue frame.
The physical right back edge, visible on the left side of the photograph, appears mostly smooth with subtle wear near the upper corner.
Analysis: Back edges display minor scattered whitening around the blue perimeter, with no continuous chipping, delamination, or rough structural break.
Surface
9/10No analysis available
Analysis: Back surface remains generally clean, though holder glare reduces certainty across the central Poké Ball artwork. No confirmed handling scratch, stain, or structural surface defect is visible.
