Pokemon Go Giratina Counters and Shiny Giratina (Altered Forme)

Trainers, the Legendary Pokemon Giratina in its Altered Forme is the new five-star Raid Boss, with a chance to be Shiny.

To our delight, we can challenge Altered Forme Giratina, and we might even get a Shiny Altered Giratina form if we successfully defeat it. Even though it looks scary, it has a lot of weaknesses, such as Dark, Dragon, Fairy, Ghost, and Ice-type Pokemon.

The best counters for Altered Forme Giratina are Mega Gengar, Shadow Salamence, Shadow Dragonite, Shadow Weavile, Shadow Mewtwo, and Shadow Mamoswine.

It takes 2 to 4 Trainers to defeat it in a battle, that is, if you use the best counters and movesets.
