Raid guide
How the fight goes and what to bring.
Giratina is Ghost/Dragon, weak to Ghost, Dragon, Ice, Dark, and Fairy — plenty of options, with other Ghosts and Dragons leading the charge. It's a comfortable trio and duo-able when it's the Altered Forme. The real value here is PvP: Origin Forme is a top-tier Ultra League pick thanks to Shadow Claw spam and Shadow Ball/Dragon pulse pressure, and Altered Forme is a defensive wall. As a Ghost raid attacker, Origin Giratina is also excellent. This is one of the highest-value legendaries for competitive players.
Shadow Giratina (Altered) resists Fighting, Normal, Bug, Electric, Fire, Grass, Poison, Water — leave those attackers out even if they are your highest CP.
