Giratina

Giratina (ギラティナ Giratina) is a Legendary Ghost/Dragon-type Pokémon. It has the ability to change forms between its Altered Form and its Origin Form. Giratina is also the Version Mascot for the main series game, Pokémon Platinum.

Appearance
It looks like a giant sauropod. It has six legs, gold protrusions that look like external ribs, and golden horns on its head. The picture is completed by great wings of shadow with red jewels on the wingtips.

Special Abilities
Like Palkia and Dialga, it has a signature move called Shadow Force, which hits the opponent without fail even if if the foe uses Protect or Detect.

When in its Origin Form, it retains its phenomenal amounts of HP, like any other Pokémon that is in their alternate forms, and it focuses on more offensive moves, and less on the defensive moves. It switches its Attack and Special Attack stats with its Another Form, making it a great powerhouse. It is also a vastly powerful Pokémon that can use these benefits to fit the trainer's focus on attacking.

In Anime


Giratina has a large role in the 11th Pokémon movie, Giratina and the Sky Warrior, where it tries to attack on Dialga and Palkia for polluting its dimension with their earlier battles. However, later on it is captured by Zero and nearly killed after he tries to absorb its powers. Giratina is rescued by Ash and his friends, with help from Shaymin.
