Just got a 100iv Giratina

But look at its stats here, the attack is terrible and only dragon claw is useful among its charge moves. Sigh.

Giratina has no potential with it's current moveset, but congrats!

Caught a 98% myself, so I know... 98% of your pain.

I'm still holding on to hope that Niantic stops being lazy and greedy and introduces a way to.change Giratina's form, and a way to unlock exclusive moves when it inevitably gains Shadow Force.

Probably gunna raise mine regardless some day, because I think that the combo of Dragon Claw and Shadow Claw is pretty cool.

Origin form still has the same moves as altered so it's still shit. If altered were the rapidash, origin would be the Typhlosion without blast burn.

As the questionably proud owner of a 100% Suicune and a 100% Regice, I feel you on this. Right now, a perfect IV Giratina is a cool trophy Mon to have, but sadly it's not terribly useful. Perhaps it could be fun to use one day in PvP with the shadow claw/dragon claw moveset as a tanky Mon with fast moves that are a pain to dodge.

This is a great point. With two of the least resisted types in the game coming out in a flurry, many chances to dodge, and great overall bulk, Giratina might be a top tier PVP-mon

Bin it. I binned all my Giratinas save for my first 91 and never raided one for a week.

You need no more than 1 91+ and 15 attack copy of this garbage and more than 1 has 0 trade value and are just slot cloggers. It is no more useful than Rapidash.

You're just mad because you started to power up that 91% then caught a 93% and felt you needed to make a point by binning it.
