I have a use for Giratina: double battles in PtHGSS. I traded my Arceus and Giratina from my Pt to my HG, obtained another Giratina through Sinjoh Ruins, and gave my Griseous Orb to one of the Giratina. That makes a Defense and Offense team where one is defense and offense, but they are the same. That's a use for Giratina (Altered Forme). [[User:Pawsrent|Pawsrent]] 14:33, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

@Knuclear: Keep in mind that just because they're on the list doesn't mean they're completely useless, just not on par with top tier teams. You always have to factor in the fact that in Pokemon, you don't just have one but 5 other Pokemon. So if you make them work, more power to you.
@Pawsrent: Most battle communities enforce species clause, which prevents Pokemon of the same Pokedex number from being used. Same Pokedex number meaning that different forms of the same Pokemon may not be used on the same team. However, you are partially right because at the time this article was written, the VGC international tournament didn't happen yet and apparently the most popular uber after Palkia and Kyogre was Scarf Giratina AF.
