Gracidea
File:Glacidea flower.png The Gracidea Flower (Japanese: グラシデアの花) is a key item used in Pokémon Platinum to change Shaymin between its Land and Sky Formes. The flower is native to Gracidea, hence its name. It can be received during the player's first trip to Floaroma Town, although the player's party must contain an event Shaymin given away at the eleventh movie. This item cannot be used at night or when Shaymin is frozen. In some places people give bouquets of these flowers that resemble Shaymin, as seen on the right.

In the movie Giratina and the Sky Warrior, a character named Leila owns a Gracidea Flower bouquet, which has the same purpose as it does in Platinum. Shaymin also live in a field full of these flowers.
Trivia
- The flowers on a Shaymin's head resemble Gracidea Flowers.
- While the Gracidea Flower can only be obtained when the player has an event Shaymin, any Shaymin can transform using it.
- The Gracidea Flower appears as a toy in the game My Pokémon Ranch, after receiving the Platinum update. Like in Pokémon Platinum it is used to change Shaymin between its Land and Sky Formes. It only appears if the player has the Gracidea Flower on their Pokémon Platinum card.
