Temporal Forces was a landmark set — it marked the return of ACE SPEC cards and introduced a deep roster of Ancient and Future Pokémon ex, making it one of the most celebrated SV releases among both players and collectors. Within that star-studded checklist, the Litten IR stands apart as a pure artwork piece — not a chase ex, but a collector's card with staying power. Litten's enduring popularity as an Alola starter, combined with the scarcity of this print and Makura Tami's signature cozy style, keeps demand steady and raw copies liquid on the secondary market. If you're building a serious binder or eyeing a submission to PSA or BGS, this is the copy to have.
