Gemi Grade Report
Chaos Rising
Published June 25, 2026
This Chespin shows excellent overall presentation, with near-perfect centering and very limited wear concentrated in a few small corner and edge nicks. The only notable caveat is reduced clarity in one back corner area, which was excluded from scoring due to image quality.

Grade Shape
Four-axis score profile
The card shows very strong centering on both sides. Front measurements are close to even at about 48/52 left-right and 52/48 top-bottom, while the back is similarly balanced near 51/49 both ways, supporting a top-tier centering result.
Corner wear is light overall, with only small nicks or whitening at the front top corners and a minor nick on the back bottom-right. A more pronounced back top-right corner issue was observed, but it was excluded from scoring because that area was affected by image quality, so the remaining visible corner wear is consistent with a high but not perfect result.
Observed
Edge wear is limited to a tiny white nick on the back left cut edge. With no meaningful edge issues seen elsewhere, the edge condition is consistent with a strong result despite that minor nick.
Observed
No surface defects were detected in the front or back art scans. The surface therefore presents cleanly, with no scratches, dents, creases, print lines, spots, or foil wear evident in the supplied scan evidence.
Corners (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 (Edges, 9.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
