Pokemon Platinum: Giratina's wormy new form

by JC Fletcher { May 15th 2008 at 11:45AM }

We're sure that some of you will be buying Pokémon Platinum (whenever it ends up coming out here) just for this thing, so here's a nice clear picture of it. This is the new form of Giratina, Platinum's cover Pokeman. Dengeki labels it the "Origin" form, and it's pretty clear that this is some kind of larval stage in the Ghost/Dragon Legendary Pokémon's development, with spikes sticking out where its legs go.

The screen shown in the CoroCoro scan, with the male trainer's new jacket, is also available in higher quality at the link, along with another screen featuring some mysterious shadow thing.

I was going to say that! And having Giratina... as a worm... with WINGS- how... charming... I DON'T LIKE IT!

Honestly... WHY CAN'T THEY GET RID OF THAT STUPID HAT? Ugh.

They should just give Mario hats to Pokemon trainers.

O... M... G!

New Jacket....

Freaky new larva giratina...

My god nintendo, have you lost all sense of creativity since your pathetic little changes to the combining crystal yellow emerald failures...

Really though, nintendo should have put a seriously hard task for darkrai and shaymin. (arceus MAY be making a debut in an up and coming game, my reasoning is thus:

A- Mew the supposedly "UN-OBTAINABLE WITHOUT EVENTS OR CHEATING POKEMON" will be OBTAINABLE via the wii-ware game Everybodys Pokemon Ranch.

A task should have been set for arceus and shaymin because theyre not that strong and there arent any nintendo events in australia (hence my fuming responses)

OK my rablings are done now

PS. Keep an eye out for my game AETHEREALM in the distant future

peace ou1 :)

B- Celebi will probably appear in the remake of G/S/C.

C- This leaves the last appearence (so far) of arceus to be in a not so distant game.)
