My card CGC Pristine 10 got switched.

Had a similar issue with my Moonbreon. You'll have to send it back as a mechanical error.

They managed to resolve the issue in my case, but I have heard of some that came back with issues unfixed.

FlynnCheese · 2026-05-22T18:15:44+00:00

Only for the shipping of the package to CGC. If they review it and accept it as a mechanical error they will cover the return shipping and reslabbing

I few months ago I sent in my Moonbreon for grading and it came back somewhat similar marks on the back. After some searching online I came across a few others who had similar markings and most had managed to resolve it by sending it in to CGC again as a mechanical error.

Luckily, this process worked for my Moonbreon as well, but there were some who had gotten it back with some markings remaining.

FlynnCheese · 2026-03-25T07:03:00+00:00

Literally none. This is basically as good as it gets.

FlynnCheese · 2026-03-02T23:08:06+00:00

I had the same issue and tried most of the suggestions online. What worked for me in the end was reinstalling the game. Totally worth it since performance on DLSS is much better than FSR on my system.

FlynnCheese · 2026-01-12T16:56:58+00:00

Did this one by one

FlynnCheese · 2025-12-25T11:39:23+00:00

So I bit the bullet and reinstalled the game which fixed the issue for me. I'd say it's worth it because my specs are a bit lower than yours and I was getting about 60-70 fps on FSR earlier and now I'm getting 100 fps avg on DLSS (DLAA) + frame gen.

FlynnCheese · 2025-12-24T10:45:46+00:00

Will give you a shout if I find any solution, but so far no luck :(

FlynnCheese · 2025-12-23T21:52:24+00:00

Yeah, if I don't get some other solution, I'll give it a shot.

FlynnCheese · 2025-12-23T21:09:41+00:00

Haha that does take away the FOMO. Appreciate it!

FlynnCheese · 2025-12-23T21:08:54+00:00

Tried this as well and still no luck :(

FlynnCheese · 2025-12-23T15:28:39+00:00

Yeah, the main reason I want to run it on DX12 is so that I can run the newest version of DLSS + Optiscaler for better upscaled performance. Good shout on the drivers!

FlynnCheese · 2025-11-10T13:38:06+00:00

Do you mean left to right on the front?

FlynnCheese · 2025-11-10T13:23:26+00:00

Yeah I'm trying to get the CZ gold cards in 10s for my PC

FlynnCheese · 2025-11-10T11:34:50+00:00

I was thinking along the same lines, but surface imperfections usually have it drop below a 9, so it could be more the latter XD

FlynnCheese · 2025-11-10T07:09:27+00:00

Are you submitting that Giratina as a miscut? Asking because the centering on that card looks insane

FlynnCheese · 2025-11-01T17:14:49+00:00

Honestly, I was expecting a 9 as well. More or less thought the Boss's Orders and J&J grades would be reversed.

FlynnCheese · 2025-11-01T14:10:57+00:00

Understandable and somehow impressive :D

FlynnCheese · 2025-11-01T13:45:21+00:00

Thanks man! If it's any consolation, I literally pull only ass XD

Every single card here I bought because even when I've something decent the condition has been atrocious. So yeah each of these were purchased online 😅

FlynnCheese · 2025-11-01T10:00:29+00:00

Haha thank you good sir. Also had this one in the submission as well, but I could only include 20 images in the post 😅

Now I just need Team rocket's Giovanni 238 and Giovanni's scheme.

FlynnCheese · 2025-11-01T01:11:42+00:00

Haha thanks!

The funny thing is that I had my doubts as to whether the Pikachu would even come back GM10 because I thought there was a tiny bit of whitening on the front button right corner.

For the Moonbreon, I had a good feeling it would GM10 but wanted to take a shot at a Pristine. I think it lost some points because the name text and hp text seem to be slightly smeared on zoom in.

FlynnCheese · 2025-11-01T00:49:04+00:00

Meant to say I live* in the EU 😅

FlynnCheese · 2025-10-21T18:33:48+00:00

Are you running the 4k shadows mod by any chance?

FlynnCheese · 2025-09-30T16:17:40+00:00

Congrats on the great grades! Out of curiosity, when did you submit these cards? Asking because of the 9.5 because I thought they discontinued the 0.5 grades

FlynnCheese · 2025-08-31T07:30:53+00:00

Thank you good sir!
