NOTE: Niantic is reverting recent Raid changes, making certain Pokémon as good as they once was. The list of top counters are relatively the same, but some Pokémon might still be useful against Giratina.
And its easy to solo, you can basically farm Giratinas. Did two solo raids back to back first attempts with 12-20 seconds left on them. You need it weatherboosted with Mega Ray at level 46 Minimum.
Dope vid Count and idk if you’ve been on Reddit yet, Nerfantic is returning the raid meta to what it was prior to them adjusting the raid window, meaning Reshiram, Zekrom, Kartana and such return to being the best of their respective typing
@@stefanl.4249 well on Thursday Nerfantic confirmed they were adjusting the meta again and on Reddit ( shoutout to Reddit) some ppl way smarter than myself have done the research and it looks like Nerfantic is scaling the fast and charge moves to the .5 second damage window which will result in most legendary/ultra beasts reclaiming their spots in the meta
And of course throwing pokeballs is messed up. Tried to throw it softly and the ball flew WAY over off into the distance. It didn’t do this once… but more than 4 times.
Came here to ask if someone else had that problem. Did 3 raids and it seemed Giratina was very close and bslls flew right over it, even if I tried throwing softly. Very odd.
Sorry no offense, but Dawnwing Necrozama just replaced it as the best ghost type attacker. I would rather build second level 35-40 Dawnwing to use in raids than using maxed out Giratina. The dps gap is too large.
@@uhhhpersoniguess I must have started playing again at the perfect time. I have two DW necrosma's without really trying too hard, I guess I didn't realize how special it was.
I really want to touch on how important it is to farm Rocket Go leaders when they have pseudo legendaries as their first mon. Ive got 3 3* Shadow Tyranitars thanks to Cliff last year, and I wouldnt have any if I didnt focus on the opportunity. Arlo has beldum right now, this could be the day you get a Shadow Meteor Masher 😁
Yes. But it used to be highest dps in the game, by a long shot. So it didn't matter that it died fast, it did more dmg than anything tankier in that time. It's still really, really good. I just don't know if it's the absolute best dps anymore with mega ray out
@@PeterMurrayj well i still do think giratina is good because of the Shadow claw buff but i think Dawn Wings might also be the same but since giratina is out i think people who don't have dawn wings should get giratina and giratina Almost Wins everytime for me in PVP
yeah.... given niantic rigged pvp and this pokemons lack of type coverage. you should likely re-look at your materials 🎉and correct them. it covers some hard hitters but doesn't cover the flooded arena. its weaknesses are the hardest hitters in the current game : dark, ghost, fairy,ice, and dragon(not so much dragon). even still the quick atk energy is horrible for its most damaging charge moves. you will get smeared an aweful trying to use this.

Alright bro, thanks 🙏 🎉
@@CountJinsulaOfficial facts
they nerfed giratina
@@Eternalight2036 either Giratina were never the strongest when it came to raids
Love your guide🎉
Been waiting for this raid since February. I really need the shiny.

is this confirmed? i thought the last post by niantic confirmed that the change was intended

@@stefanl.4249 It is yes
I only need 18 XL candy to max mine! Thanks for covering this.
hope you get that maxed! just got my first giratina today lol
And of course throwing pokeballs is messed up.

Is that a bug? The ball flies to the other side of the world. I already lost 3 giratinas. Dont know what to do anymore

Very odd.
@@jonasabergsame for me came here for the exact reason almost impossible to hit a good throw 😂
have to wait for it to float up and its way easier
Mega T-Rar should be in that counter list
Would you powervup a 15-15-14 shiny giratina got no 100% iv? Greetings from austria
yes, that is a 98% IV
Hope they make zacian and groudon come back even for just a week as reparations
Agreed zacian was not here long enough they put limit too to 5 aswell and only giving us 9 days to max either one out
I have a shundo origin giratina that I still need to max out, so this will be great for candy
I just tried to catch it safe to say I won’t be catching close to all of the ones I deafeat
I already lost 3 and 2 had good ivs
Got a Shiny the first try then a 97% functional hundo the 5th time.
assuming a pvp team cannot hold both dawn wing and giratina, is giratina still relevant when i already have a maxed hundo dawn wing?
Giratina origin hasn't been ML meta for 4-5 seasons now...
Didn't ask
What day in October will it return or has the info not been released
14th ! :)

The dps gap is too large.
Good to know
Yeah, but this is way more accessible
@@uhhhpersoniguess I must have started playing again at the perfect time. I have two DW necrosma's without really trying too hard, I guess I didn't realize how special it was.
Does Necrozma with Shadow Claw nullify the effectiveness of this Giratina?
Will be just using my free raid pass

too bad you need to elite TM it because you probably won't be able to remove frustration until december community day thingy.
Ive actually got so many shinies. I have one transferred to home as well as a shiny lucky in game and like 4 shinies but no Hundo 😭
I got a shiny today that is a 14/15/14. Not perfect but pretty dang good
I will try to get level 50 giratina because I don't have it. And i will use it for pvp and pve.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but Isn’t gengar really glassy?
Yes. But it used to be highest dps in the game, by a long shot. So it didn't matter that it died fast, it did more dmg than anything tankier in that time.
It's still really, really good. I just don't know if it's the absolute best dps anymore with mega ray out
Ehh already got 5 shiny giratina origin form. Not going to waste my passes on things I have so many of.
But the BLUEEEE hahah ( more for me )
well, if you want or need to get rid of some, I'm new to the game and probably could use it.😅😂
@@MashKnight I wish I could trade long distance.
@@TetraTroyPoGo it's a nice shiny but why waste if I have so many?
i already have giratina so i might skip this one or i will for more candy
What do you think about giratina now that Dawn wings necrosma is out?
@@PeterMurrayj well i still do think giratina is good because of the Shadow claw buff but i think Dawn Wings might also be the same but since giratina is out i think people who don't have dawn wings should get giratina and giratina Almost Wins everytime for me in PVP
@@JackPlaysMinecraft575 thank you, I will think about trying to max one out. Two weeks should be enough time to get XL candy.
@@PeterMurrayj yeah you should Definetly Max out giratina as it does have a Bit of Bulk in my Opinion
My giratina is one away from a hundo
😂
