Raw card expectations
A raw card listing should not be treated as a future graded-card promise. Ask for exact-card photos and condition notes before paying when grading potential matters.
Pokemon card grading guide
Use this guide before payment when a raw card might be grade-sensitive. It explains centering, corners, edges, surface checks, common PSA, CGC, and BGS language, and why MW Pulls does not imply any future grade without card-specific owner proof.
Centering and corners
Centering, corner sharpness, whitening, dents, and edge wear can affect grading outcomes and should be reviewed with front, back, and close-up photos.
Surfaces and holo areas
Scratches, print lines, texture issues, surface dents, and holo wear can be hard to see without angled photos, especially on modern full-art or textured cards.
PSA, CGC, and BGS language
Third-party grading companies use their own standards and final grades. MW Pulls should describe raw cards conservatively unless a card is already slabbed and owner-verified.
Proof before grade-sensitive buying
If you are buying with grading in mind, ask MW Pulls to verify the exact card, condition, photos, language, packaging, and shipping protection before payment.

Questions before checkout
Does this guide mean MW Pulls guarantees a future grade?
No. This guide explains grading-sensitive checks only. Raw cards do not carry a grade promise, and any grade expectation needs card-specific owner proof before payment.
What should I ask for before buying a raw card to grade?
Ask for clear front and back photos, corners, edges, surface and holo angles, centering context, language, set number, and protected shipping details.
Can AI decide whether a Pokemon card will grade well?
No. AI can help create a checklist, but grading potential depends on the exact physical card, photos, human review, and the grading company standards.
