487.png Due to special coding in place in the article to illustrate Giratina's Formes, certain displays will change showing Giratina as though it were in the Pokémon world, therefore being in its Altered Forme. This will only affect the artwork shown in the infobox, the anime image shown, the manga image shown, the base stats entry which is unhidden, the Pokéathlon stats entry which is unhidden, and the type effectiveness entry which is unhidden. This changes every hour, so when the time comes, click here to return to the page and change the display.

Origin(s) section should be revamped

I searched and searched, but found no info on "Garathena". Nor do I see why the word "Giraffe" would have any bearing on its name. The rest of the info seems fine except for the whole Izami thing, I don't see how that relates to Giratina at all. EmptyStar 00:15, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Instead of giraffe, why not replace it with qilin (kirin in Japanese) instead? 神奇超龍 15:26, 5 September 2010 (UTC)
Becasue nothing in the name "Giratina" seems to sound anything like quilin/ kirin. EmptyStar 04:32, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

It's long neck is probably why it was associated with giraffe. Is it me, or does Giratina resemble Deathscythe from Gundam Wing?Tesseract 09:33, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

An Altered "Altered Forme"

Why does Giratina's Altered Forme's wings seem to differ from game to game? --Landfish7 04:03, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

So wait...

Does a Giratina from the Dream World not change its ability when it changes form? Or are we missing an ability somehow? --AndyPKMN (talk) 00:09, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Giratina (Origin)'s Hidden Ability is technically also Levitate, similar to Flygon. A Telepathy Giratina given a Griseous Orb will have Levitate, and it will revert to Telepathy when the Orb is removed. I imagine the distinction of why Flygon has an explicitly-stated yet identical Hidden Ability in the code is due to Flygon being capable of breeding, to still get Sheer Force Trapinches, while Giratina has no such complication. - Saethori 03:43, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Giratina is related to the Shinto shrine.

The legends associated with it are similar to those of Izanami, former wife of the kami Izanagi. When she died of severe burns from giving birth to a fire god, she went to the underworld, from which Izanagi tried, but failed, to retrieve her, as she had already accepted her fate.
