Condition. Check for centering on the manga-style artwork, edge whitening common on foils, surface scratches from play, and print defects like color bleeding; alt art variants prone to holo scratches and rainbow patterns

Storage. Use semi-rigid top loaders with sleeves, store in cool dry place away from sunlight to prevent foil oxidation, avoid stacking in binders without dividers

Authenticity. Verify Bandai hologram and UV-reactive ink under blacklight, match font/spacing to official scans, check card weight/thickness (fakes often lighter), use official grading like graded/graded for confirmation; reprints lack original set code placement
