Thank you.Well I don't like the blue clothes+the red baret,also there are some kind of spatters on the ground in the picture of Giratina and Cyrus(?).Maybe they changed the HP bar for the battle with Giratina,maybe because it is an evil pokémon they changed the color to black instead of white.
 
Notice that in the battle screen, Giratina doesn't have a 'base' underneath it, as if it was floating. And the background is all funky blue and purple. Does this mean we'll be battling it in a different dimension? And the overworld 'sprite' of Giratina doesn't look sprite-ish to me. I think it looks like a 3D model :D. This is most noticeable if you look at the red things on its wings.

Oh, and there's an even better quality scan over at PokéBeach.
 
That scan does have a good quality (and is larger)..now I can see Lucas's custom even better..as for Giratina not having a ground base..maybe because it is in a different dimension..or something ..I don't know.
 
Giratina is at level 47 in that battle, so it's likely he is fought at the same point in time as Dialga and Palkia in D/P. There also appears to be some black ooze around him, and with the large shadow, maybe he was pulled from his dimension? This is supposed to be his "Origin" form, maybe he was taken from a separate time also.
 
Well, I see that dialga and palkia are behind him, which means they also can be caught. I hope this is the case, I'd like to SR for both of them...
Also, the poll might as well be closed..
 
I'm almost certain of the new Giratina now. Look: Serebii recieved a rumour that the new one was 6.9m and 650kg a few months ago, and it's on the cover. :D.
 
Just an observation.

It looks like the male trainer is wearing a winter coat.
 
kagster123, Leaf Blade was a signature move for Sceptile and yet Leafeon and Gallade got it in D/P. I know Pikachu is too special for Nintendo, but only God knows what they have in mind... They already made Surfing Pikachu with only one possible (sucky) nature.


You make a good point. But signature moves wouldn't be "signature" if other pokes learned them, but i can make a case for luxray. >:)


It had so much potential :(

Heres what a choice banded Volt Tackle can do to some standard Walls...

I noticed the no-base thing too. Are you fighting it while it's just floating around or something? Or maybe Pokemon with the levitate ability/flying types no longer have bases underneath them? That, or it is a different dimension.

That guy standing in front I'm them I'm pretty sure is Cyrus, because of the lack of a red hat.

And in other news, blue winter coat+red beret? Goodness. Outfits have been getting worse since FR/LG.

I'd laugh if they gave the guy a winter sweater and all they did was change the color or Dawns skirt to blue/black. Contradictions much?
