Perfect centering: back left/right ratio is approximately 51/49 and top/bottom ratio approximately 52/48. The blue outer frame shows only a subtle vertical difference.
Front Side
Corner Close-ups (Front)




Corners
9/10The upper-left silver frame meets a sharply defined corner with no confirmed white fiber or rounding visible in the photograph.
At the upper-right frame beside the HP area, the apex appears intact and flat without confirmed tip whitening.
The lower-left silver corner retains a clean pointed profile; glare limits fine detail but no physical whitening is confirmed.
The lower-right corner along the green artwork border appears square and undamaged, with no visible lift or compression.
Analysis: All four front corners were checked for fiber exposure, rounding, lift, and compression at the available image resolution. The silver frame remains continuous to each apex, with no confirmed handling defect. This face shows 9/10 because the overall grade is held at 9: it was photographed inside a holder, which limits how closely the surface and edges can be inspected.
Edges
9/10The top silver edge is straight and continuous around the Heliolisk name area, with no confirmed chipping or white flecks.
Along the lower silver edge beneath the copyright line, the cut appears even and no physical edge whitening is confirmed.
The left frame edge beside the artwork has a smooth visible outline; lighting variation is present but no cardstock exposure is confirmed.
The right silver edge bordering the green illustration remains visually continuous from top to bottom without a confirmed chip or rough section.
Analysis: All four front edges were scanned for whitening, chipping, fuzzing, and roughness. No physical edge defect is clearly resolved, though glare and soft focus reduce confidence. This face shows 9/10 because the overall grade is held at 9: it was photographed inside a holder, which limits how closely the surface and edges can be inspected.
Surface
9/10No analysis available
Analysis: The front surface was checked across the artwork, text areas, and lower rules section for scratches, scuffs, dots, dents, and print abnormalities. No physical surface defect is clearly distinguishable from glare at the submitted resolution. This face shows 9/10 because the overall grade is held at 9: it was photographed inside a holder, which limits how closely the surface and edges can be inspected.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)




Corners
9/10The card-relative upper-left corner, visible on the right side of the back photograph, shows a sharp blue-frame apex without confirmed whitening.
The card-relative upper-right corner, visible on the left side of the back photograph, maintains a clean blue outline and flat profile.
The card-relative lower-left corner retains its blue border geometry with no visible rounding or material loss.
The card-relative lower-right corner appears intact against the blue frame, with no confirmed fiber exposure or bend.
Location: back top-left corner
Several small light flecks and slight fiber exposure are visible along the dark top edge near the corner.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: The four back corners were individually reviewed for whitening, softening, lift, and structural distortion. The blue border remains clean and the corners appear flat, although image-based assessment carries moderate uncertainty. This face shows 9/10 because the overall grade is held at 9: it was photographed inside a holder, which limits how closely the surface and edges can be inspected.
Edges
9/10The top blue edge of the back shows a straight factory-cut line with no visible white interruption.
The bottom blue edge beneath the inverted Pokémon logo appears even and free of confirmed material loss.
The card-relative left edge, appearing on the right side of the back image, remains solid blue with no confirmed whitening.
The card-relative right edge beside the visible blue frame is cleanly outlined, with no confirmed roughness or chipping.
Analysis: The blue back perimeter was checked across all four physical edges. The outline remains straight with no clearly visible whitening, chips, or fuzzing. This face shows 9/10 because the overall grade is held at 9: it was photographed inside a holder, which limits how closely the surface and edges can be inspected.
Surface
9/10No analysis available
Analysis: The back surface was reviewed across the blue border, logo region, Poké Ball, and lower inverted logo. No physical surface defect is clearly visible. This face shows 9/10 because the overall grade is held at 9: it was photographed inside a holder, which limits how closely the surface and edges can be inspected.
