I like how they related the gen 4 legends to the states of matter. Dialga is solid which is why it’s steel, Palkia is liquid so it’s part water and Giratina is gas/antimatter which is why it’s ghost since ghosts aren’t solid beings or liquids
@@robertharris6092 If you really wanna dig into it, you could say it's Rotom. Not a legendary but hey, if you want to reach for an answer, this should suffice.
There was a pretty cool reason for it - Jumpluff knows Sleep Powder (75% accuracy) and what with Chlorophyll (boots speed in sun), base high speed, and sitting next to Primal Groudon causing sun it's the fastest thing in the whole tier - and getting a sleep off on the first turn could be amazing.
@@controlcore1 Probably something similar involving Spore, which is a 100% accuracy sleep move. Parasect's speed (and survivability...) are garbage though. Maybe he utilized Follow Me or Rage Powder in order to get the Spore off? IDK.
Omg mine was Jolly Nature and so under leveled compared to the elite four but it WRECKED! I think I transferred it to my poke bank and I’m going to recreate my sinnoh team. I used a master ball on it too. I loved that Pokémon so much. 🖤💜🖤💜
@@SinYue They better not include Dynamax in the gen 4 remakes since they'll probably be gen 8 And the mechanics of the gens the games were remade in were always carried over to the remake. Though they'd have to redesign it completly with stadiums and such so I hope not.
Papa Taurean That is, if GF decides to go the HGSS route of including all changes to Platinum. But considering Masuda’s idiotic philosophy, it’s only a pipe dream.
One reason I don't like the 3D models as much as the sprites: Giratina's "wings" in the sprites looked like they were made of shadows. Minimal shading and the fact they were all one solid color gave them the appearance that they weren't really physical objects in our world, more like its wings were tears in reality leading to the distortion realm or something. *...Then the 3D models just made them look like black wrinkly socks*
Giratina is one where its sprite art waa just fantastic, so the models really don't hold up. I think my problem is that they're too smooth -- the spritw makes its body look ridged, while the model is flat. Rather than a ghost serpent with a golden skeleton it looks like a stripy slug with a mask. Also it looses the curve of its body that gave it a super nice profile, like most things with levitate. Gyarados loosing its iconic curled poses being another good example. I like the 3D models overall, but since this is one of my favorite pokemon its always been one that particularly bothered me.
Connor Stickels even the eh models were for the most part made worse on transition due to the lack of movement making all the 3D models look more lifeless then the sprites ( granted game freak has had more practice with sprites so it makes sense that for the most part it would be worse)
eat hot chip and lie it’s wings never looked like tears though. They were always blatantly tentacles since Giratina could lie them down and move them like tentacles as shown in Platinum and BW.

My favourite legendary, and the only one that gave even Arceus a headache in the time of creation. While not relevant to competitive, its shiny looks gorgeous.
I feel like you're kinda underplaying the prevalence of Giratina-Origin in gen 7. It was THE defogger because it was the only viable defog user that: 1. Wasn't weak to stealth rock 2. Wasn't immediately threatened by Primal Groudon's stone edge and actually threatened common setup variants like the rock polish or swords dance sets. It didn't really see much use on stall because of its lack of a reliable recovery compared to ho-oh and lugia but it definitely saw a lot of play on the super common bulky offense teams usually alongside both primals. It was far and away the best pokemon in the tier for this.
Thank you for finally covering one of my all time favorite pokemon. Personally I think Shadow Force is underrated as while yes it is a 2-turn semi-invulnurable physical move it has the unique property of blasting through Protect and Detect while also doing massive damage and getting STAB. Phantom Force from gen 6 is basically its little sibling with the same effects but less power. A shame Giratina isn't used much in VGC though as it has the potential with its signature move to be very annoying to face since its not uncommon to double target mons.
@@darthvigilante technically yes and no, it only has those stats in its eternamax form during the move eternabeam, oddly though its special attack is lower in that form..which makes no sense, both of it's defenses rise to 250 base and it's hp increases too, but it's all redundant because you can't stay in the form lol
This dude always brings good points to the table. I always thought Rayquaza was far superior as a dragon legendary, but Giratina is more useful than I thought.
I know this probably wasn't going to come up, but Giratina is THE best Pokemon in Pokemon GO - at least, for the longest time. Both its forms reigned supreme in the Ultra and Master Leagues for the longest time, until Regice got the incredible toy Lock-On to finally create a Pokemon strong enough to bring it down reliably.
how good was Hariyama actually? it’d be interesting to focus on a pokemon that had a decent singles history but was insanely versatile in doubles and VGC
I caught a shiny Giratina in my last playthrough of Platinum. The very first encounter was shiny. It even was the nature I was hoping for thanks to my Espeon's Synchronize. I couldn't believe my luck. I used my Master Ball not being willing to risk knocking it out or even having technical problems. I was ina Skype call with my then girlfriend and I actually had one of those "moments of hype" that a lot of gaming channels like to show off. It's my favorite shiny that I loved using to destroy every colosseum in Battle Revolution with in glorious 3D.
that was hilarious because it was less broken than Aegislash. At least for the day because I am sure people could find other broken sets besides the mixed attacker which was already neat.
Ah, yes. My favorite Pokémon, my first legendary, and ruler of the Distortion World. Tank or fighter, you can always find a use for it. I'm really hoping that it gets a Mega Rayquaza/Ultra Necrozma-Esque power boost in the Sinnoh Remakes, though it's tough to say.
At least it got one of the hardest boss fights in pokemon history, being a 3-phase 6v8 in a game where having high speed doesn't automatically mean a win
I had to run and check because I was also sure that it had been covered only to find nothing. I'm guessing we were confused because it gets mentioned in almost every video lol. Hell if you just cut together all of the mentions it has in the other videos you could probably get a 15 minute video.
So Gen 7 is ending soon and the early videos didn’t cover gen 7 performance. It will be nice to make some videos to supplement the Gen 7 performance of pokemons introduced in early videos like charizard, salamence, gengar and garchomp.
Just assume what they are in Gen 7 now. Charizard suck while Megas are not that makes Zard Y sometimes UUBL in the tier. Venusaur Mega was OU and now UU
Legend has it if the distortion world is in gen 4 remakes, we will be able to start a online battle with giratina-O not being restricted to griseous orb
Giratina has been my favorite legendary ever since I found it in diamond. I clearly remember it being one of the few times I was playing Pokemon with my friends. Thanks, FSG, for taking the time to analyze this unequivocally awesome Pokemon.
"Master of Sinnoh's creation trio" ....Isn't Arceus the master of it? I mean, it's like saying Registeel is the master of the Regi trio while Regigigas twiddles his thumbs in the background

Fantastic design. Easily my favorite legendary. I'm a huge fan of both forms, and I think its fine with how its used. They both have their functions, regardless if one is more used or not. And thats rad
When the Sw/Sh metagame will be stabilized, I think it's a good idea to update the history of the competitive scene of the pokemon that you had just dedicated a video when 7th gen hasn't released yet. Sorry if I misspelled something, I don't speak english so well
In each state of matter exist life. Solid - animals, humans, plants. Liquid - fishes, plants gas - birds and plasma - ghosts, red light spectrum entities, and stars (which are living creations of plasmas that grow) all exist in these states of matter.
Seeing Giratina made me realize that I don't want a Diamond and Pearl Remake If anything, I want a Platinum Remake. I would love to see that Giratina scene on Spear Pillar as it stared at Cyrus, before jumping him, pulling him into the Distortion World. I would love to see it in HD, and please Gamefreak please. MAKE IT NIGHTMARE FUEL WORTHY!
So if the sinnoh remakes turn out to be in gen 8, then doesn't that mean that giratina might be getting a gigantamax form? (simular to how rayquaza got a mega in the hoenn remakes)
dynamax/gigantimax is region locked to the Galar region. Pokemon are only able to dynamax in Galar because of the special power spots where the gyms are built on top of that allow pokemon to be affected by the invisible Galar particles that these power spots emit. So pokemon can't dynamax/gigantimax outside of the Galar region because there is no power spots or Galar particles.
@@blacknight1257 they would have to make yet another alternate timeline for them to fit dynamax spots in, but even so, eternatus should get a role in the games and that seems unlikely

Finish the mythicals and legendaries of DPP! How good was Shaymin actually!
They might not do it next week though because there's also Shaymin Sky
@@bonqbon I will air slash flinch trap them until they give my happy bush some love!
Fantastic design. Easily my favorite legendary. I'm a huge fan of both forms, and I think its fine with how its used. They both have their functions, regardless if one is more used or not. And thats rad
Ah, yes, the literal devil of the Pokémon World...
*How fitting for Christmas*
When the Sw/Sh metagame will be stabilized, I think it's a good idea to update the history of the competitive scene of the pokemon that you had just dedicated a video when 7th gen hasn't released yet. Sorry if I misspelled something, I don't speak english so well
In each state of matter exist life. Solid - animals, humans, plants. Liquid - fishes, plants gas - birds and plasma - ghosts, red light spectrum entities, and stars (which are living creations of plasmas that grow) all exist in these states of matter.
Accidentally finding Giratina in gen 4 inside those ruins is a feeling that new Pokémon games will never achieve. Current Pokémon is so soulless
Giratina: i'm the only pokemon that's weak to both of it's typings
Dragapult: allow me to introduce myself
Merry Christmas FALSE SWIPE GAMING!!!!
3:58 substitute on layout twice lol
Molthree It's the new meta
He did it on purpose dude
one for each form I guess
*Giratina's unique ability that breaks through Protect*
Urshifu with Unseen Fist in 2020: think again
I really hope Giratina, Palkia and Dialga get powered up forms like the weather trio did when we get a Sinnoh Remake.
The only mon that can out bulk suicune. Merry Christmas False Swipe Gaming and the FSG community!
The most powerful Giratina is the one with Rain Dance and Chesto Berry.
Whenever I hear about cyrus getting dragged into hell it gives me chills cause it's such a cool scene in the game
Seeing Giratina made me realize that I don't want a Diamond and Pearl Remake
If anything, I want a Platinum Remake. I would love to see that Giratina scene on Spear Pillar as it stared at Cyrus, before jumping him, pulling him into the Distortion World. I would love to see it in HD, and please Gamefreak please. MAKE IT NIGHTMARE FUEL WORTHY!
Unfortunately, we never got one because GameFreak caters to little kids exclusively nowadays.
My first pokemon game was platinum. I remember my first team had a giratina named Tina.
good times
And here I was expecting another ice type today, not the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come.
Thanks for this video today. Giratina is one of my favourite pokemon and it so happens to be my birthday today😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
The "Y" in Yveltal isn't silent. It's E-vel-tall
No it's Yah-vel-TALL
It's yahveltal
"This is giratina ruler of the distortion world he is great at stealing credit cards"
So if the sinnoh remakes turn out to be in gen 8, then doesn't that mean that giratina might be getting a gigantamax form? (simular to how rayquaza got a mega in the hoenn remakes)
dynamax/gigantimax is region locked to the Galar region. Pokemon are only able to dynamax in Galar because of the special power spots where the gyms are built on top of that allow pokemon to be affected by the invisible Galar particles that these power spots emit. So pokemon can't dynamax/gigantimax outside of the Galar region because there is no power spots or Galar particles.
@@norsegoat1408 I'm referring to a possible remake. they could very easily add them into the game even if it maybe doesn't make much sense
@@blacknight1257 they would have to make yet another alternate timeline for them to fit dynamax spots in, but even so, eternatus should get a role in the games and that seems unlikely
I half expected it to end with, “And that’s how Giriatina became untiered, the highest dishonor for a fully evolved Pokémon”.
Fans: Giratina when?
FSG: Giratina now!
I remember seeing him come down from the top of the screen in platinum it was so AWESOME
How GOOD was Eelektross ACTUALLY? - History of Eelektross in Competitive Pokemon (Gens 5-7)
I remember getting genuine chills when Giratina Origin first appeared in Platinum, at Spear Pillar. That and the Distortion World was wild.
