Morpeko ex · Pitch Black
Back · 7.5 — centering 7.0 · corners 7.5 · edges 8.5 · surface 7.5
Centering is graded on both faces, and the final grade weights the front more heavily.
Corners is the weakest sub-score, so it's the most likely thing to cost this card a grade. Sharpness under magnification. Softening from shuffling or a binder shows here first, and corners cost more grades than anything else.

An estimate from one photo — not a grade, and not affiliated with PSA. Lighting, angle and photo quality all move these numbers, and a grader sees the card in person.

The short version
Morpeko ex looks like an 8.
The wear is spread across all four areas (8.5–9.0) rather than concentrated in one. A better photo will not move this much — the card is what it is.
Worth repeating: this is one photo read by a model, not a grade. Lighting and angle move these numbers, and a grader has the card in hand.
Grade one of yours free →What each score measures
How evenly the border frames the art, front and back. PSA publishes a tolerance per grade — it is the one sub-score you can measure yourself before you send.
Some corner wear is showing — the most common reason a card lands at 8 rather than 9.
Sharpness under magnification. Softening from shuffling or a binder shows here first, and corners cost more grades than anything else.
Edges are strong, with only the faintest wear visible.
Whitening and nicks along the card's edge, most visible on dark borders.
Surface is strong, with nothing obvious beyond the odd faint mark.
Print lines, scratches, dimples and gloss. Holo cards scratch easily and it rarely photographs well.
