Condition Details
The centering appears slightly top-heavy. Edges and corners look sharp from the photo, though minor surface scuffs may be hidden by the holographic glare. No visible creases.
Grading Recommendation
Low priority unless for personal collection. As a modern non-English/non-Japanese card, the value ceiling is lower and the cost of grading may exceed the value gain unless it achieves a flawless 10.
Card Description
HP 90 Lightning type. Attack: Pika-Check - Look at the top card of your opponent's deck. Attack: Dynamic Spark - This attack does 30 damage for each Energy card you discard from this Pokemon.
Notable Features
Full art illustration featuring Pikachu and Growlithe from the Detective Pikachu movie aesthetic; features Simplified Chinese exclusive set logo/border patterns.
Authentication Notes
The holographic pattern shows the vertical prismatic streaks consistent with official Simplified Chinese Pokemon cards. Font and spacing match the official S-C production from the Nine Colors Gathering / Jumbo Adventure era.
