Giratina is a combination Ghost/Dragon-type Pokémon. 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. As a Ghost-type, it surpasses all others. Like Mew, Latias, Latios and Arceus, it can learn Flying moves. 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. It lives in old cemeteries, feared by the living and the dead. It is sometimes known as the Lord of Phantasms. Giratina's classification is the Renegade Pokemon, for an unknown reason. Giratina has a large role in the 11th Pokemon movie as one of the main villains at the start of the movie, where it tries to get revenge on Dialga and Palkia for polluting its dimension with their earlier battles. However, later on it is captured by Zero, the real villain and nearly killed after Zero tries to absorb its powers. Giratina is rescued by Ash and his friends, with help from Shaymin.
Trivia: Although it can fly and learn Psychic, Electric and Ground-type moves, it is incapable of learning Ice or Fire attacks.
it is also rumored to be foes with regigigas for unknown reasons.
