Phases:

1. The fight is pretty straightforward, but Giratina can be tough. The main thing to watch out for is its signature move, Shadow Force. If you see it charging up for this attack, your best bet is to get away from it immediately.

Strategy:

• Focus on exploiting Giratina's weaknesses. Bring Pokémon that know Ghost, Dark, Ice, or Dragon-type moves.
• Don't forget about status conditions! Moves that can inflict paralysis, sleep, or confusion can really turn the tide in your favor.
• If you have a powerful team, like a Lv. 100 team, the fight will be much easier. However, even with a strong team, be mindful of Shadow Force.
• After defeating Giratina, you'll receive the Rock Horn item, which boosts the recruitment rate for Rock-type Pokémon. Giratina itself might also join your team!
