Corners
9/10The upper-left yellow corner retains a defined apex with no visible fiber exposure, rounding, or lift against the green frame.
At the upper-right yellow tip, the border color reaches the point cleanly and the corner remains flat without a visible bend.
The lower-left corner meets the yellow perimeter with crisp geometry; no white fiber or compression is visible at the available image resolution.
The lower-right yellow corner appears sharply cut and level with the surrounding card plane, without rounding or edge lift.
Analysis: All four front corners were examined for fiber exposure, rounding, compression, and lift. The yellow border remains continuous to each apex, with no confirmed handling defect visible. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
9/10The upper yellow edge is straight and continuous from corner to corner, without a distinct white fleck or rough segment.
Along the lower yellow edge beneath the text box, the factory cut appears even and no coating loss is confirmed.
The left perimeter beside the green artwork frame remains cleanly defined, with no visible chipping or fuzzing.
The right yellow edge beside the artwork and HP area is smooth in the photograph, with no isolated whitening confirmed.
Analysis: The full front perimeter was scanned for whitening, chips, roughness, and fuzzing. The yellow factory-cut edges appear continuous and clean in the visible image. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Surface
10/10No analysis available
Analysis: The holographic artwork, yellow frame, text panels, and lower information area were examined for linear marks, dull patches, dents, and pattern breaks. No physical surface defect is confirmed at the available image resolution.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
9/10The physical upper-left corner, visible on the right side of the back photograph, maintains a pointed blue perimeter with no confirmed whitening.
The physical upper-right corner, visible on the left side of the back photograph, shows a clean blue apex and no apparent softening.
The physical lower-left corner retains its rounded factory geometry without a visible chip, bend, or exposed cardstock.
The physical lower-right blue corner remains intact and flat, with no distinct white fleck or compression mark detected.
Analysis: The four physical back corners were checked using the blue outer frame as the reference. No confirmed whitening, rounding beyond the factory shape, lift, or structural corner damage is visible. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
9/10The physical top edge of the blue back shows a straight uninterrupted perimeter with no distinct cardstock exposure.
The physical bottom edge remains evenly cut around the reversed Pokémon logo area, without visible chipping.
The physical left edge, appearing on the right side of the back photograph, retains a consistent blue border and clean outline.
The physical right edge, appearing on the left side of the back photograph, shows no confirmed white flecks or fiber fuzzing.
Analysis: All four physical back edges were inspected using the blue perimeter as the contrast reference. No confirmed whitening, chipping, roughness, or delamination is visible. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 9/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
