Collector Insights
Giratina is a Psychic-type Pokémon with 100 HP, featuring a retreat cost of three Colorless energy and a resistance to Colorless energy that reduces damage by 20. Its primary attack, Earth Power, costs two Psychic and one Colorless energy, dealing 60 damage and flipping two coins to determine additional damage to Benched opponent Pokémon, bypassing their Weakness and Resistance. The card includes a Poké-Power ability called Let Loose, which allows the player to shuffle their hand into their deck and draw up to four cards after placing Giratina on the Bench during their turn. Giratina’s weakness to Darkness energy doubles its damage, making it vulnerable to certain strategies. It belongs to the Platinum series, released in February 2009, and is classified as a Rare Holo card. The card’s design is attributed to artist Kouki Saitou, and it carries the Pokédex number 487. This version of Giratina emphasizes its role as a defensive and disruptive force through its unique abilities and energy interactions.
