To check the grade of your Pokémon card, you'll need to send it to a professional grading service like PSA (Professional Sports Authenticator), Beckett Grading Services, or CGC (Certified Guaranty Company). They'll assess its condition based on centering, corners, edges, and surface. The grade will range from 1 (poor) to 10 (gem mint) based on these criteria. Remember, you gotta pay a fee and wait for the results, but it's worth it if you've got a rare jewel!

Just eyeball it! If it looks pretty and shiny without any scratches or wear, it’s probably in good condition. Jokes aside, professional grading is the way to go if you're serious about knowing the exact grade. They've got the tools and the eye to give you an accurate score.

Honestly, unless you're looking to sell or insure your cards, professional grading might not be worth the hassle and cost. A quick visual inspection can usually tell you if it's in decent condition. If you're just sharing with friends or playing casually, save your money!
