Giratina, as was mentioned before, is a Ghost/Dragon-type Pokémon, at Level 70. It is the only Pokémon that is weak to both of its types. It has an extremely large amount of HP, and its Attack and Special Attack are great. Its Defense and Special Defense are alright (for a Legendary, that is), but with the amount of HP Giratina has, it won't be going anywhere anytime soon. Its lowest stat is Speed, and even that isn't terrible.

Giratina knows some very dangerous moves, so you will need to watch out. First, inflict a status ailment (other than burn and poison). Next, reduce its HP with a good move that are super effective (such as Ghost-type, Dragon-type, {{type2|Ice}} or {{type2|Dark}} move). Then, use attacks that are regularly or not very effective to reduce its health further. (Be extremely cautious if you actually use Psychic-type Pokémon, as Giratina will knock them out with {{m|Shadow Force}}. If you're using Rock-type or Steel-type Pokémon, watch out for {{m|Earth Power}}.) When Giratina's HP bar is in red, start chucking Dusk Balls (because you're in a cave) until you catch it. It will take 10, 20, maybe 30, or even 40 tries before you succeed. Giratina has its [[signature move]] -- Shadow Force, a powerful two-turn Ghost-type attack with 120 base power (like {{m|SolarBeam}}). Before striking, Giratina vanishes for one turn and will be invulnerable to any of your attacks during that time. When Giratina reapppears and attacks, it will strike through Protect or Detect. Thankfully, this move only has 5 PP, but if the Pokémon it hits isn't a {{type2|Normal}} Pokémon, which is immune to Ghost-type attacks, it can really hurt, or even knock out your Pokemon in 1 hit.
