Read more ↓Giratina is a legendary Ghost/Dragon-type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV. It is the mascot of Pokémon Platinum and plays a significant role in the lore of the Sinnoh region as the ruler of the Distortion World, a dimension opposite to the real world. Giratina’s existence is tied to the creation trio, alongside Dialga and Palkia, representing antimatter. Its Pokédex entries often describe it as a banished Pokémon, exiled for its violence. In its Altered Forme, Giratina resembles a large, serpentine dragon with six legs, while its Origin Forme is more ethereal and centipede-like, floating with its wings. Giratina is known for its immense power and its unique ability to traverse dimensions. Its natural habitat is the Distortion World, a chaotic realm with altered physics. In the games, it is typically encountered in the climax of the Platinum storyline or as a post-game legendary. In the anime, it has appeared in films like "Giratina and the Sky Warrior," further cementing its mysterious and powerful persona. Its dual typing gives it unique matchups, being weak to Ghost, Ice, Dragon, Dark, and Fairy, but resistant to Poison, Bug, Fire, Water, Grass, Electric, and immune to Normal and Fighting attacks.
