Corner Close-ups (Front)
Corners
8/10The upper-left yellow corner retains defined geometry with a small bright area at the tip consistent with minor edge wear.
The upper-right corner remains pointed, with the yellow frame largely intact and no obvious rounding.
The lower-left corner shows slight softening where the yellow frame meets the card edge, while the corner remains substantially intact.
The lower-right corner is visibly worn at the outer yellow tip, with the point still present but less crisp than the upper corners.
Analysis: Front corners show minor close-inspection wear at the upper-left, lower-left, and lower-right tips. Because multiple corners exhibit visible wear, the count-aware front corner score is 8. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 8/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
8/10The upper yellow edge is generally straight, with a few small pale interruptions near the left section.
The lower yellow edge shows scattered light wear near the left and right portions but remains structurally straight.
The left yellow edge remains continuous overall, with slight roughness near the lower corner transition.
The right edge is mostly clean along the yellow frame, with a small pale interruption toward the lower half.
Location: front bottom edge
Tiny pale fibers or flecks are visible along the bottom cut edge near the middle-right of the segment.

A clearly visible rough, frayed white patch interrupts the right edge near the middle of the region.

A tiny white fleck is visible at the outer bottom-right corner edge.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Front edges show scattered minor whitening and slight roughness, most evident along the bottom edge. Multiple close-inspection edge issues result in a score of 8. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 8/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Surface
10/10No analysis available
Analysis: The front surface shows no confirmed scratches, dents, scuffs, or holo pattern disruption at the available image resolution. The Lugia artwork, yellow border, and lower text panel retain consistent finish.
Back Side
Corner Close-ups (Back)
Corners
8/10The physical top-left back corner appears mostly square, with a slight light mark along the blue edge.
The physical top-right back corner retains a defined point, though the blue border is mildly softened at the apex.
The physical bottom-left back corner has the clearest whitening, with a small chipped-looking area at the blue tip.
The physical bottom-right back corner is slightly softened but remains intact, with the blue coating continuing around most of the tip.
Analysis: Back corners contain several minor wear points, including a more distinct white exposure at the physical bottom-left corner. The distribution of corner wear supports a score of 8. Magnified inspection adjusted this face to 8/10 — see the limiting factors and condition summary above.
Edges
7/10The upper blue back edge is straight with a small light interruption near the right-side corner area.
The lower blue edge has visible light wear toward the left-side corner transition, while the central run remains intact.
The physical left back edge is largely even, with minor pale points along the lower section.
The physical right back edge remains mostly blue and straight, with a small light mark near the upper transition.
Location: back top edge
Multiple small white flecks are visible along the dark blue top cut edge.

The lower-left corner has a visible chipped area with exposed white cardstock and roughened edge.

A pale, intermittently rough line of exposed stock runs along the dark blue left cut edge.

Several bright exposed fibers and a small rough chip are visible along the lower-left blue border and corner.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: back right edge
A visible run of pale exposed edge material and small flecks follows the outer right border.
View magnified evidence photoLocation: back right edge
The outer right edge has a clearly rough, frayed white exposure through the middle portion.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: Back edges show several small whitening points, with the strongest localized wear along the lower edge near the physical bottom-left corner. The distributed minor wear supports a score of 7. Magnified zoom inspection subsequently found: moderate whitening (top edge); moderate chip (bottom edge); moderate whitening (bottom edge) +6 more — this score reflects those findings.
Surface
10/10No analysis available
Location: back lower-left area of the surface
The lower-left corner shows a conspicuous white fiber-exposed chip and roughening along the blue border.
View magnified evidence photoAnalysis: The back surface shows no confirmed physical scratches, white dots, indentations, stains, or scuff patches. Broad bright areas are consistent with lighting reflection rather than card damage.
Confidence Level: High
Grade Uncertainty: ±1
Grade B — Good
Minor issues with lighting or focus. Reliable grading with minimal uncertainty in fine details.
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.
