Distortion World: Difference between revisions

SM, this is what I wanted to do originally but I'm just not sure if the subsection should be titled "effects in gameplay". 神奇超龍, that was an oversight.

The Distortion World is the only place in which a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that has used {{m|Transform}} can assume {{p|Giratina}}'s {{DL|Form differences|Giratina|Origin Forme}} in [[Generation IV]]. As no Pokémon besides Giratina could hold the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Griseous Orb}}, all Pokémon that transformed into an Origin Forme Giratina would immediately become the {{DL|Form differences|Giratina|Altered Forme}} outside of this area.
{{pkmn|battle|Battling}} Giratina here is the only instance in the Generation IV games where the battle scene does not include a platform graphic underneath the Pokémon.
Although [[time]] is said to not flow here, the game clock counting total gameplay time will still add time spent here and events affected by time, such as {{p|Eevee}}'s evolution to {{p|Espeon}} or {{p|Umbreon}}, still occur.


After defeating [[Cyrus]], the {{key|IV|Journal}} entry for that day reads "''Met Distortion World's Cyrus!''".

In interviews [[Junichi Masuda]] and Takeshi Kawachimaru did for {{wp|G4 (TV channel)|G4}}, it was revealed that Giratina and the Distortion World are personifications of {{wp|antimatter}}. The Distortion World's antimatter affects the real world's {{wp|matter}} and vice versa, though they mentioned that antimatter is more fragile than matter.
