Help me identify double holo shining gyarados 🤩

Hey folks,

Wondered what people’s opinion on double holo or not on my shining? Feels like it’s a bit in between but there’s such a big cluster above the bow of the boat and across most clouds I’m just not sure!

Regular holo

Looks like the regular version

As others have said, this is a regular holo.

The double holo error (holo bleed error; Right) only has a small line of cloud ink visible and the holo pattern extends to all portions of the card. The cosmos holo pattern does not shine through all parts of the cloud ink on a normal copy (Left).

There are really three versions of the holo, with the first two being categorized as “normal” and the last version being categorized as “double holo error” by grading companies. Yours is the “Moderate Holo Bleed,” though this distinction of non-error copies is not made in the market or by collectors.

Hope this helps!
