This species is one of the three cosmic rulers created by Arceus, and alongside Dialga and Palkia, who rule time and space, Giratina’s role is to rule over antimatter. The Ghost and Dragon-type species is one of the most powerful Legendary Pokémon players will encounter during their time in the game.

There are two different forms of Giratina. One is more difficult to acquire and not something players will encounter during their adventures. The more common form though is something that players can easily capture once they’ve reached the endgame.

How to catch Giratina

You’ll need to have already defeated the Elite Four and acquired the national Pokedex to encounter Giratina. Here’s where to go if you want a shot at capturing this legendary beast.

Before encountering this Legendary, make sure to save, so you can reset if necessary. Also, you’ll need plenty of Poké Balls to capture it with and a strong team to face off against the level 70 Pokémon.
