Grading Summary
This Pikachu presents as a very clean card overall, with excellent centering and no detected edge or surface issues. The only visible flaw is a small back bottom-left corner nick, which keeps the corners just shy of perfect.

Four-axis score profile
Measured centering is very strong on both sides, with the front and back staying close to a 50/50 split horizontally and vertically. That balance is consistent with the 10 result.
Corners are overall clean, with the only noted issue being a small white nick/chip on the back bottom-left corner near the start of the arc. That isolated minor wear is enough to explain the 9 while leaving the rest of the corners in excellent condition.
Observed
No edge wear was detected on either the front or back edge strips, and the art scans were also clean. The edge performance supports the top result.
The front and back art scans showed no surface scratches, dents, creases, print lines, spots, foil wear, or other visible anomalies. With no surface defects detected, the 10 is well supported.
What's holding this card back
Lowest axisCorners (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 Corner Wear (minor, back).
Bringing corners up to the level of the next-weakest axis (Centering, 10.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
