Collector Insights

Giratina is a Psychic-type Pokémon with 110 HP, featured in the Platinum series released on February 11, 2009. It has a retreat cost of two Colorless energy and a resistance to Colorless energy that reduces damage by 20. The card’s flavor text reflects its history of being banished for violent actions, with a theme of lingering observation from a distant realm. Giratina possesses two attacks: Dragon Claw, which costs two Colorless energy and deals 30 damage, and Dragonbreath, requiring two Psychic and one Colorless energy to deal 80 damage. The latter attack includes a random effect, flipping a coin to determine if it paralyzes the defending Pokémon or fails entirely. Its weakness to Darkness energy increases damage by 30, highlighting a key vulnerability. The card was illustrated by artist Yusuke Ishikawa, contributing to its distinct visual identity in the Platinum set.

It was banished for its violence. It silently gazed upon the old world from the Distortion World.
