Giratina ExAncient Origins #93 Pokémon Card

Giratina, a formidable Ghost/Dragon-type Legendary Pokémon, hails from the Sinnoh region, introduced in Generation IV. Known as the Renegade Pokémon, it commands the Distortion World, a dimension where the laws of physics are warped and inverted. In the Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum games, Giratina is a pivotal figure, particularly in Platinum where its role as the guardian of the Distortion World is central to the storyline. Its unique serpentine, multi-limbed form in its Altered Forme and its majestic, winged Origin Forme are visually striking, reflecting its power and otherworldly nature. Giratina's lore often ties it to antimatter and the balance of dimensions alongside Dialga and Palkia. Its diet is purely conceptual, as it exists in a realm beyond conventional sustenance, feeding on the very fabric of its dimension. Its behavior is often portrayed as solitary and territorial, fiercely protecting its domain. As a Dragon type, it is weak to Ice, Dragon, and Fairy types, while its Ghost typing makes it vulnerable to other Ghost and Dark types. However, its dual typing also grants it resistances and immunities, such as immunity to Normal and Fighting moves. Giratina's imposing presence and complex backstory have cemented its status as one of the most iconic and revered Legendary Pokémon.
