A raw Pokemon card is an ungraded card that has not been submitted to a professional grading service like PSA or BGS. Raw cards are sold based on their visual condition rating (NM, LP, MP, etc.).
What do Pokemon card conditions NM, LP, and MP mean?▾
NM (Near Mint) means minimal wear with crisp edges. LP (Lightly Played) shows slight wear but no major flaws. MP (Moderately Played) has noticeable wear including edge whitening or light scratches.
