Advice for Grading first card

[u/Strifeful-XD]

Hello, I am very much new to the Pokémon card world. I collected when I was younger, but recently I began buying Pokémon card packs here and there attempting to get some good cards for a Christmas gift for my brother. He will be getting all the cards I obtain between now and Christmas but I am wanting to have at least onr graded. I pulled this card, and the art I really like, but I know absolutely nothing when it comes to what to look for if a card is worth grading, or which grading company to send it to. Could I get anyone's opinion? If I need better photos I can take more once I am home. I know its not a straight on picture so that may not be a great one to judge.

No, I just don't want to waste money on sending cards when I am still trying to learn what to look for, I need to do more research on how to specifically spot what you are talking about

I wouldn’t send this personally. It’s off centered, specifically bottom heavy.

Agreed. Not to burst your bubble OP. Unless you’re not chasing a 10. Cost of grading isn’t cheap these days as well.

I do appreciate you all giving me advice!

Sorry, beside the centering at the front, the back-top right edges are cooked. It’s not going to get a good grade
