Grading Summary
This Gyarados presents as a strong copy overall, with excellent centering and clean edges/surface. The main limitation is back-corner whitening, including one observed defect in an image-quality-affected region that was not used for scoring.

Four-axis score profile
The card is well centered overall. The front shows a mild left/right and top/bottom shift, while the back is essentially even, which supports a strong centering result.
Corner condition is held back by visible back-side wear, including a more noticeable white-loss area on the top-left corner and smaller whitening on the top-right. A back bottom-right corner issue was observed but excluded from scoring because that region was affected by scan quality, so the result reflects the reliable corner evidence only.
Observed
Edges appear clean overall with only a very small possible nick or whitening along one cut edge on the front. There is no meaningful edge wear on the remaining sides, consistent with a top-tier edge result.
Observed
Surface preservation is strong, with only two tiny spots in the front blue border/background area. No scratches, dents, creases, or foil wear were indicated, so the surface grade remains high.

What's holding this card back
Lowest axisCorners (8.0) 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 (moderate, back).
Bringing corners up to the level of the next-weakest axis (Surface, 8.0) would be the single biggest improvement available.
