What is Pokemon card centering?
Pokemon card centering refers to how evenly the front image of the card is printed within its borders. It's a big deal for collectors because perfect centering can significantly increase a card's value and appeal. Imagine a picture perfectly framed vs. one that's too far to the left or right. Collectors often use the term when assessing a card's condition for grading.

It's literally how centered the picture is on the card. Perfectly centered = more $$$ if you're looking to sell or grade.
Had a card graded once and it got a lower score cuz of off-centering. Can confirm, centering matters a ton in grading.
Not to burst anyone's bubble, but unless you're really into collecting or selling, centering might not matter much to you. Play the game and have fun!
