Fear the Altered Distortion World's behemoth! Giratina is an excellent wall thanks to its gargantuan bulk, able to deal with dangerous threats like Swords Dance Groudon, offensive Ho-Oh, and Dragon Dance Necrozma-DM. Will-O-Wisp ruins its foe's Attack stat, and Pressure drains the many low-PP moves Ubers is fulfilled with, such as Sunsteel Strike, Bolt Strike, and Water Spout. Defog is great support for its teammates, and with its ability, Giratina can switch in on entry hazard setters like Necrozma-DM, Groudon, and Ferrothorn, draining their hazard PP faster than it loses Defog PP. Giratina relies on Rest to recover its HP, which worsens its extreme passivity, so clerics like Clefable, Xerneas, and Blissey are wonderful teammates; the former two can also deal with physically offensive Taunt Yveltal and Marshadow, while the latter can handle many powerful attackers that threaten Giratina, such as Eternatus, Kyogre, and Xerneas. Giratina also appreciates Yveltal, which can deal with Calyrex-S and offers a secondary Defog user, freeing some pressure on Giratina.
