Collector notes

Condition. Check for centering on full art holofoil, edge wear from thin borders, surface scratches on printed training artwork, and print lines common in Ultra Rares; avoid whitening on corners.

Storage. Use semi-rigid holders or top loaders with sleeves for full art protection; store in cool, dry place away from sunlight to prevent holo fading.

Authenticity. Verify official Pokémon holo pattern and text alignment; check card stock thickness and UV blacklight for authentic fluorescence; compare to official database images on pokemon.com; fakes often have blurry text or incorrect damage effect wording.[5]
