How grades work

Grades describe the current framework result from the evidence available. They do not prove real-world performance, genetic value, or global rank.

Structural Quality

Visible conformation, support, alignment, balance and condition.

Traditional Fighting Projection

Photo-grounded projection from traditional TGI eye/leg/scale mappings and C-scores. Uploaded photos are the visual evidence; verified performance is a separate layer.

Breeding Potential

Phenotype estimate first; stronger only with pedigree and offspring records.

Genetic Uniqueness

Requires usable rare-trait or population evidence. It is not a DNA test.

Overall Elite Index

Weighted combination of evaluated categories only. NYE categories are excluded, not counted as zero.

NYENo scoreNot Yet Evaluated

Required evidence is missing. Unknown is not treated as a poor grade.

S+9.5–10.0Exceptional

Extremely rare, outstanding profile. Requires strong evidence before being treated as foundation-level.

S9.0–9.4Elite

Outstanding profile with very few meaningful limitations.

A+8.5–8.9Excellent

Multiple high-level strengths with limited weaknesses.

A8.0–8.4Very strong

Strong, balanced profile with clear practical value.

A−7.5–7.9Strong

Above-average profile with clear strengths and some limitations or missing evidence.

B+7.0–7.4Good

Good profile useful for targeted goals or improvement.

B6.0–6.9Average-positive

Generally sound with moderate strengths and several development areas.

C5.0–5.9Limited

Mixed profile or insufficient evidence for a higher category.

D0–4.9Weak

Low evaluated score. This is different from NYE.

Important rules

  • The top Overall Grade must match the Overall Elite Index.
  • Missing evidence is NYE, not D or 0.0.
  • Visual confidence is separate from the grade.
  • Breeding grades remain provisional without pedigree and offspring records.
  • S and S+ require very high evaluated scores and strong evidence.
