Gemi Grade Report
Chaos Rising
Published August 5, 2026
This Xerneas shows excellent centering and otherwise very strong overall condition. The only meaningful wear is minor edge/corner whitening, with one back-edge note excluded because of image-quality limitations.
Image Quality
1 back-side defect ignored due to scan quality.
• Strong flash glare is visible across the upper portion of the card, especially near the top-right corner, which can obscure edge and corner inspection.
• Parts of this scan are hard to inspect. Glare, overexposure, or low detail may reduce grading confidence.
Grade Shape
Four-axis score profile
Centering is excellent on both sides, with the front measuring about 48/52 left-right and 49/51 top-bottom, and the back measuring about 48/52 left-right and 46/54 top-bottom. These balanced measurements support a top centering result.
The corners present very clean overall, with only a subtle nick/whitening noted at the front top-right corner. The mark is minor and light enough that the corner quality remains effectively pristine.
Observed
Edges show minor whitening/nicking on the front right cut edge near the corner, which is consistent with a slight reduction from perfect edge quality. A small back-edge whitening note was observed in a glare-affected region but was excluded from scoring because that area was not reliably inspectable.
Observed
No surface scratches, dents, creases, print lines, spots, foil wear, or other surface anomalies were detected in the reliable scan areas. The surface therefore reads as clean and well preserved.
Edges (9.0) is the lowest of the four axes. It's the main thing keeping this card from a higher grade.
The limiting defect is Edge Wear (minor, front).
Bringing edges up to the level of the next-weakest axis (Centering, 10.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
