How to Catch Giratina

Encounter Giratina in Turnback Cave

Giratina will be a lot less formidable this time around compared to your last encounter. Send out Pokemon that can withstand many of its attacks and can inflict decent enough damage to get its health down, such as Darkrai or Dialga. Darkrai can also inflict a status condition on Giratina with Dark Void.

The request cannot be completed unless you capture Giratina.

Giratina Respawns when Defeated

If you accidentally cause Giratina to faint while in battle, it will respawn in the same location when you reset the map. To reset the map, return to Jubilife Village and immdiately travel back to Cobalt Coastlands. It will continue to respawn until you are able to successfully catch it.

Get Giratina Origin Form with the Griseous Core

Get the Griseous Core in Turnback Cave

After completing the request, you also obtain a Griseous Core from inside the cave. You can use the Griseous Core on your caught Giratina to transform it into its Origin Form.
