Information on the New Giga, Shaymin, and Giratina Forms
 
This was posted on Serebii, i know some one got the full story.
BUT it was edited.

New Stuff:
Quote:

Several new Pokémon 'forms' exist in the game; Giratina's Origin Form, Regigigas' Sky Form, Shaymin's Another Form
Edit @ 13:56 BST: Thanks to slowkingsley on the forums, we have some further info regarding these translated. Giratina & Regigigas' new forms are said to be able to get the Levitate ability and Shaymin's Another form may be at least part Ice Type
Which roughly states, that Giga's "Sky form" may not be able to fly, and Shaymin will turn into Grass/Ice such as Abomasnow, making it even more pathetic.


El Gofre May 10th, 2008 5:42 AM

Bear in mind they said at least part ice, meaning that they could change the initial type. Ice flying for example would be a nice typing, albeit the quad rock weak.

Toblerone May 10th, 2008 5:45 AM

Can't wait to see 'em! New forms of those Pokémon would be awesome!

Azonic May 10th, 2008 5:51 AM

Finally some actual proof of the game. I'd assume Shaymin's new form would only have its appearance changed to make it look snowy, when it says it's "at least part ice type". Also, Regigigas may turn to the uber environment if the change of abilities is true. The main reason it was of Borderline was because of it's ability, and if it truly obtained Levitate, it would probably be uber.

Toblerone May 10th, 2008 5:52 AM

Does this mean Shaymin is going to be catchable in the next game?

Since it doesn't need slow start.
Its stats might be lowered down in the next game.
Like deoxys were when you switched it from game to game.

Mitchman May 10th, 2008 5:58 AM

Wow platinum is coming in 2009. YAY! Me thread didnt go to waste. Can I use it for it?

Toblerone May 10th, 2008 6:03 AM

Oh no.. 1 year? Aww man.. i thought it was coming at around the end of this year.. ah well.

Mitchman May 10th, 2008 6:03 AM

May I ask, Why would Regigigas would turn to the Uber Enviroment? Is it broken? ...

EDIT- Nevermind I forgot its stats were over 600

Azonic May 10th, 2008 6:18 AM

It would lose its Slow Start ability and gain an immunity if it truly gained the Levitate ability in its Sky Form. It would be broken by that reason. For now, it isn't broken when it has Slow Start.

paperfunk May 10th, 2008 6:18 AM

whoa, that giratina in the movie picture looks awesome. im getting me one of them! then, i shall RULE THE WORLD!! MWA HA HA!
When it comes to the new shaymin form, i hope its ice and something else, because grass would make it pathetic.

AJ™ May 10th, 2008 6:18 AM

it has UBER high attack,
and without slow start, it'd be crazy strong.

Matt-O May 10th, 2008 7:28 AM

Again, Regigigas might not have te same stats in Sky form. However, like Deoxys switching forms, though individual stats may change, the Base Stat Total will not. Because its BST is 670, it will probably be an uber in that form.

Atomic Sharks May 10th, 2008 7:46 AM

Yeah this is great but what i am wondering is can you get your pokemon from Diamond or Pearl into it

AJ™ May 10th, 2008 7:48 AM

Probably through wifi.
Its just like trading from the old GBA games,
you had to trade them through a link cable,
so you'll probably have to put em on ranch, or trade them to another DS.

Atomic Sharks May 10th, 2008 7:49 AM

Yea i was thinking that but if you have over 200 pokemon it might take awile to do it right

AJ™ May 10th, 2008 7:51 AM

It took a while to do in the old games too.
So live with it. :p

Atomic Sharks May 10th, 2008 7:52 AM

But if you need to trade it will take even Longer ANd i have so many shinies
(MOANING)

AJ™ May 10th, 2008 7:54 AM

Go get Pokemon Ranch :p

(fillerrr)

Atomic Sharks May 10th, 2008 7:56 AM

what do you meen i only have DIAMOND

AJ™ May 10th, 2008 7:57 AM

Then you're probably screwed :P

Atomic Sharks May 10th, 2008 8:00 AM

Or if it is the trading where you need to trade back and fourth all i need to do is catch over 200 pokemon right

Mike Ukiuki May 10th, 2008 9:11 AM

I saw that on serebii I would go look at it.

Mukkamoto May 10th, 2008 11:55 AM

This news is not 100% confirmed...maybe a few days and we may get more info. Cant wait to hear the results. The forms are no big change but they are diffrent and cant wait to see if they actually have a small change in design between the forms.

AJ™ May 10th, 2008 2:47 PM

When new info comes, i'll update the thread.

LethalTexture May 11th, 2008 12:06 AM

The image of the new Giratina form has been released months ago. I thought everybody new that by now ._.

There it is. Heres the link if you can't see it.

Sweet Speed May 11th, 2008 1:39 AM

Yeah, we do know that Deano. We are chatting about the types, I think levitate on Giratina wont really make any difference, but on Regigas we are looking at our newest Uber :P.

I cant wait to play with these Pokemon, it will be fun ;)

Amen to that, they should be fun to play around with. :D

And I know that alot of people have seen this, I just wanted to clear it up for those people who post that they can't wait to see Giratina's new form. Unless I read it wrong and they mean Shaymin/Regi D=

tylerowicz May 11th, 2008 5:55 AM

has there been any more info on regigigas or shaymin?

GreenStorm May 11th, 2008 6:06 AM

I just got my Diamond, now there's a Platinum?! Doesn't matter. But I don't think Platinum goes with Diamond & Pearl. Also, the Giratina sky form looks good. I've seen it before though. I can't wait to see the other new forms.

tkay1493 May 11th, 2008 7:52 AM

Maybe some 5th gen pokemon will appear.. who knows. well nintenod does but who in the puplic knows...
all i know is imgonna buy it when it come out.

AJ™ May 11th, 2008 7:53 AM

New pictures on main page!

Matt-O May 11th, 2008 8:23 AM

Do you guys think we'll be able to change the forms of Giratina, Regigigas, and Shaymin at will or will it be like 3rd Gen Deoxys?

AJ™ May 11th, 2008 8:41 AM

Like deoxys.
switchin between games.
