'''Giratina''' ({{ja|ギラティナ|Giratina}}, ''Giratina'') is a creature from the {{uv|Pokémon}} series.

{{pkmn|Giratina}} is a Ghost/Dragon-type {{iw|bulbapedia|Legendary Pokémon}} introduced in Generation IV, and is a member of the {{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon of Myth}} of Sinnoh along with [[Dialga]] and [[Palkia]]. It is the {{iw|bulbapedia|version mascot}} of ''{{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon Platinum}}'', and is categorized within the Pokédex at #487 as the "Renegade Pokémon". Giratina represents antimatter, and lives in the {{iw|bulbapedia|Distortion World}}. It has two {{iw|bulbapedia|Forme}}s: the Origin Forme, which it can assume only in the Distortion World or when holding a {{iw|bulbapedia|Griseous Orb}} (''Platinum'' to ''{{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}'') or {{iw|bulbapedia|Griseous Core}} (''{{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon Legends: Arceus}}'' onwards), and the Altered Forme, under which it appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''. In ''Pokémon Platinum'', it takes the role held by Dialga/Palkia in ''Pokémon Diamond/Pearl'' respectively: {{iw|bulbapedia|Team Galactic}} attempts to use its power to recreate the universe with {{iw|bulbapedia|Cyrus}} as a ruler; after defeating Cyrus in the Distortion World the player has a chance to catch Giratina.

Giratina's Altered Forme appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]'' as a [[Poké Ball]] and [[Master Ball]] summon. When summoned it attacks three times, breathing out a large vortex which damages enemies for 2% while carrying them away, similarly to [[Mario Finale]]. It can turn around before attacking if no enemies are in front of it. Touching Giratina's body deals 12% damage with weak diagonal knockback.

|desc-ntsc=This Ghost/Dragon-type Pokémon is a resident of the Distortion World. When it is given a Griseous Orb, it'll change into its Origin Forme. Its Dragon Breath attack can catch fighters in a powerful, damaging tornado. If you're on the receiving end, be careful it doesn't carry you right off the stage.

|desc-pal=Also called the Renegade Pokémon, Giratina lives in a dimension known as the Distortion World. It has two Formes, and will only be seen in Origin Forme in our world if it's holding a Griseous Orb. Its Dragon Breath attack creates a powerful tornado that not only damages you, but can carry you off the stage!
