Giratina in Pokemon Legends Arceus: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jryRZ5tnsLfWZas.html&

"I, Cyrus, won't have any more interfererererererererererererererere... °Cyrus.exe is not responding

While Arceus sits in the sky watching this whole event.

Giratina: "Heard you talkin' shit."

Hands down the most epic Pokemon cutscene ever. Cyrus: "Regardless, the effort is rash and foolish. I have harnessed the power of Dialga and Palkia..." Giratina: "They're *my* bitches, not yours."

This scared me as a kid... oh wait...

Lucas: I'm a brave boy. *Giratina emerges from a black pit of darkness and towers over everything* Lucas: noT A BRAVE ENOUGH BOY FOR THIS

DIALGA, the mythical Pokemon, and the master of time! ... And the other.

This is genuinly scary, and not just for the shock of the jumpscare. The music is creepy, Giratina's eyes are horrifying, and to top it all off, *it smiles before scaring you shitless*.

"what is this pressure i feel" has the same energy as "why do i hear boss music"

The nostalgia now hits way harder than the jumpscare.

Giratina: Oh you're a villain, alright. Just not a SUPER one! Cyrus: Oh yeah? What's the difference? Giratina: *PRESENTATION!*

I, Cyrus, won't have any more interferererererere...! "Famous Last Words"

Cyrus: I have harnessed the power of Dialga and Palkia... Giratina: Does it look like I give a shit?

I love how even Dialga and Palkia step back when Giratina comes in.

you know you're fucked when the gods of time and space get pushed back by giratinas distortion roar.

If you just rising up is enough to bend solid stone pillars. Then you mean business.

Cyrus: I have harnessed the power of Dialga and Palkia... Giratina: The amount of holy light i am emitting is how many fucks i give, Cyrus. _Boo._

After legends arceus coming back here you realise giratina has more character development than anything else in pokemon.

This cutscene and Rayquaza's one are probably the most memorable moment of all Gamefreak Pokemon games.

RIP camera man lol

2:30 Giratina: I heard you were talking shit.

Cyrus summons the literal gods of time and space Arcues: * sleep * A kid plays a flute Arceus: REAL SHIT

Cyllene - afraid of seeing a cute little centipede called Wurmple. Cyrus - isn't afraid of seeing a scary giant centipede called Giratina.

Somebody commented "while arceus watches this up in the sky" plot twist: you are arceus watching lucas/dawn go on their adventure

I love how technically Arceus is sitting on an invisible platform like 20 metres above Spear Pillar while this is all going down

Cyrus: The lake trio is here? Who cares, I have palkia and dialga *giratina starts to appear* Cyrus: Oh, there's a colossal pitch black hole in the ground and a pokemon is coming out, interesting *giratina comes out* Cyrus: Oh, I see you are scary enough to make dialga and palkia step back only with your presence and those are some pretty sharp wings you got there *giratina roars and prepares to attack* Cyrus: You know I don't give a fuck about this, do you?

Cyrus controls Time and Space, Giratina still gives no fucks.

And meanwhile Arceus is sitting above them, just chillin'

I like how it subtly implies through Cyrus's calm and calculated attitude he's on the verge of pissing himself when Giritina shows up.

I like how it's almost as if the rival knows some beast ass dragon-like Pokemon are going to pop up and wreck the place, so he just runs off.

Giratina be all "You remind me of this dumb blonde I knew a couple hundred years ago. Here, let me bring you to my pad"

I love how the Lake Guardians even come from the right directions when ascending to Spear Pillar. I love when this level of attention is paid to small moments.

imagine this with sun and moon graphics :o

Everything about this scene is bonechillingly perfect. The lack of dialogue from anyone but Cyrus serves to show that he's alone facing this complete unknown, we know something bad is going to happen and he alone does not. The sound design is also fantastic. Giratina's portal appears in a sea of distorted whining and scraping, and the music is a jumbled mess of broken sounds and scattered music notes, rising to a pitch as Cyrus is swept into the distortion world. Even the effects as Giratina attacks, with the Spear Pillar warping around it, and Cyrus' speech in-game _glitching out_ as Giratina sweeps forwards in the first and only jumpscare Pokemon has ever had.

Daily reminder that Giratina is the best Pokemon.

2:18 And that was the moment Cyrus knew, he fucked up...

cyrus, there's a reason dialga and palkia moves their asses back when giratina appeared.

My brother asks me "What's the scariest game you've ever played? Slender, Dead Space, Amnesia?" And I say "...Pokémon Platinum"

RIP I can’t believe we aren’t getting this incredible scene on Switch.

3D remake. We need. Please.

The 2 capital reasons Sinnoh was so scary. 1. This scene 2. Cynthia

For real tho... that creepy smile when Giratina was readying to pounce Cyrus. That's some Chara-level shit right there. I can't wait to see this in 3D.

Now that Pokémon Legends Arceus is out, this scene makes a lot more sense. Giratina saw that Cyrus was basically trying to pull a Volo and recreate the world in his own image, so it pulled him into the revere world to prevent that. Giratina, as well as Dialga and Palkia was eager to battle the player character as if it recognized him/her. It’s time with the player character in Hisui likely becalmed it and it no longer held a grudge against Arceus.

Despite how frightening it is, the best part of this cutscene? Its Giratina, pulling off a Big Damn Heroes moment. Scary yes, but would you rather live knowing you had the world and your ass saved by Giratina, than to live in a world where said fear would never have existed because you wouldn't know what fear was?

Not gonna lie.. the way dialga and palkia *MOVE BACK* implies giratina has strength enough for them to respect or fear. Nice seeing this after legends arceus to how how giratina was back then and is now. Some say it rules antimatter.. some say it rules gravity even i say it rules distortion itself.. but we can all agree whatever it rules.. is enough to make dialga and palkia somewhat fear and respect it that time and space bend to it. even less say its shadows.. maybe it rules all of these concepts at once which is why the distortion world is so strange.

Cyrus: I got the time and space. I’ve got the legendaries for my new world! Giratina: And you have a flight to catch.

I keep getting comments of people saying this scared them when they were a kids, only to realize this game came out almost 8 years ago, jesus

One of the best parts of this scene is watching Cyrus go from stone cold psychopath to “I *severely* fucked up” in mere seconds right behind Giratina lunges

Cyrus: What is this pressure I feel…something is enraged? Garitina: This will not happen AGAIN!

I love how Cyrus is unware of Giratina. Like he figured out how to create Red Chains and use them to subjugate Dialga and Palkia, but somehow he's just surprised by the third Creation Trio member Giratina.

This is why I loved platinum, I still think it's the best Pokémon game ever made. Not only did the story feel like it had something at stake, it also had the most memorable champion, and introduced some of the most liked mons to date. And it still managed to feel epic! A sense of actual exploration- Sinnoh didn't just feel like a giant gameworld, it felt like an actual continent. And that concludes my opinion. Problem genwunner?

This cutscene is just BRANDED into my mind. From the solemn calling of the fairy trio to the dark and creepy abduction of cyrus. It's PERFECT.

No wonder Giritina was banished from Sinnoh by arceus. It definitely has a temper. I remember playing this. It was at night and I had Popcorn next to me, I was under the sheets of my bed cover, to make it more dramatic. :D Doing it Climatic Style!

Cyrus: "I have harnessed te powers of PALKIA and DIALGA. Giratina making his hand-things: " Are you sure about that?"

This scene hits different after legends Arceus…

The storyline of Platinum was amazing

My favourite part about this cutscene, apart from all of it because its amazing, is that the moment he enters our dimension the stone pillars just bend,not break but bend Such a nonchalant display of power

The thing that made Giratina scary is that its shadow-figure wasn't looking at any of the characters. It was looking directly at the camera. It was looking directly at *YOU.* And it *lunged* at you to begin the fight.

When the gods of Time and Space back away from you, you know you're a badass.

In a potential remake, this scene has *a lot* of potential. But now that I notice... the rival heals your Pokemon, and flees, wishing you luck. He could have, at least, stayed to show support, but not even that =/

Second scariest jumpscare in Pokemon - right behind walking into a random Undella town house and seeing Cynthia

*Giratina isn’t paying attention to Cyrus *He’s staring right at YOU. [Attacks]

Did anyone get jumped when they played Platinum?

Love how Giratina blinks his eyes

I'm here again because Pokemon Generations recreated this moment. it was epic.

INTERFERERERERERE...

The creepy music, the Lake trio scattering in the sky from the distortion, the way Dialga and Palkia stepped back when Giratina rose from the depths, Giratina spreading its wings and deforming them into clawed hands, the music getting more and more intense as it closes in on Cyrus, all the way to it pouncing as it screams into the night. Giratina terrifies everything around it, even fellow Legendaries. And this cutscene shows us why: this Pokémon will be out for BLOOD if you piss it off.

While I love Giratinas appearance in PLA I do wish we got something more like this. Seeing it in a 3D cutscene and knowing yo have to fight this terrifying pokemon would be epic.

Oh, something's happening. ...what is that? And what is that? What is that? What is that? What is tha--WHAT IS THAT WHAT IS THAT WHAT IS THAT WHAT IS THAT WHAT IS THAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

2:47 I think that's literally the closest Nintendo has got to a jumpscare. That honestly scared me shitless as a kid.

The best part about this cutscene is that you can totally hear Palkia and Dialga's cry when Giratina shows up and they back away. It's almost like you can hear them saying "Oh shit, you fucked up. You really fucked up."

Welcome to Pokemon Platinum, where the Giratina jumpscare is enough to make Freddy Fazbear shit his pants.

Am i the only one who realizes that giratina literally tried to kill cyrus?

Gen 4 was peak lore.

yo watchmojo you guys might be shit but thanks for putting my video

This cutscene hits harder and makes more sense once you've played through Legends Arceus

I like how when Giratina appears Dialga and Palkia back away, crying, like either "OH SHIT" or, if they were rappers or gang members, it would be like "OH, Wassup, wassup!"

I love how the video ends at the jumpscare, implying to people who don't know what comes after, that it was a game over

When I played this for the first time, I was playing with my best friend (it was a sleepover), and the light in my room flickered as Giratina showed up, and completely went out when it jump-scared me. We both were scared shitless, but it's really funny to look back on.

Cyrus: "you can't defeat me" Lucas "I know, but he can" *shadow rises out of the void*

*Giratina appears* Palkia and Dialga: "Run, bitch, run". 😱😱

It's ironic that Giratina, the very same Pokémon that Arceus created and banished to the Distortion World, interfered with the world destroying plans of Team Galaxy and save the world of Pokémon and even the universe itself.

& this people...is why giratina is my favorite legendary pokemon!

If I remember correctly, this scene initially plays out very similarly to the same scene in Diamond and Pearl, but with both Dialga and Palkia. The Lake Trio appearing to break them free is different, but my favourite touch is that when Giratina begins to appear, the Lake Trio in the sky start to go haywire and lose their stable movement.

I can't believe there is a jumpscare in a kids' game. Gee...

Spoilers: “Something feels Enraged” That might have more meaning now. What if, due to the events of PLA, Giratina has come to regret the actions it took? What if, seeing Cyrus attempts to create a similar event it’s angry that another fool would try to repeat the past? What if, in Pokémon Platinum, we’re seeing Giratina’s Redemption Ark?

Giratina:”Ah no, I already dealt with a god wannabe once.”

Had to rewatch this after that new Pokemon Generations episode

Damn, Platinum was pretty darn creepy. NOT SO KID FRIENDLY NOW ARE YOU GAME FREAK

Both dialga and palkia backed the fuck up cause they know what giratina is capable of and that sadistic smile when he grabbed Cyrus gave me chills

The cutscene in a nutshell: Cyrus: Muahahhaha! I now control both Dialga and Palkia! Nothing can stop me! Lake trio: We can! Cyrus: No, you can't. Lake trio: No... we can't... HAI GAIZ! Giratina: I can. Cyrus: No you can't! With the combined power of Dialga, Palkia, and my luxurious blue hair, nothing can stand in the way of my plan to... Giratina: OMNOMNOMNOMNOMNOM! Hero: Sweet! Happy fun black vortex of death time! WHEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeee...

Cyrus: you cannot stop Palkia and Dialga! Giratina: lol, I know. How squishy are *you*?

So you see , that's where the trouble began. 2:45 That smile. That darned smile.

SwSh: I forgot to pay the power bill 1k years into the future Platinum: Ima hard reset the universe

Imagine if this was a consistent thing Like, you’re fighting Eternatus and then a menacing black puddle comes out of the ground

You know Cyrus is a threat when the devil has to step in and put an end to his plans of universal domination

Now it's been understood why Giratina interfered with Cyrus' plan The Pokemon legends arceus explained it all *Cough*,* cough *Volo

It's my head Canon that giratina is the older brother who constantly picks on his younger brothers but we'll go ballistic if he see someone hurts them

It's wing spikes get bigger and burn white just before he grabs Cyrus...was Giratina literally trying to kill Cyrus? Like straight up impale the fucker and drag his arse to the Distortion World? Damn Giratina, you scurreh. On another note, the Helsing Abridged comments in the chat make me smile. Cynthia and the Player just watch Giratina doomgaze at Cyrus. Giratina: OH, you want to recreate the world hmmmmm? Well summon your legendaries! Call upon your admins! Give me a huuug! Cyrus: *shitting himself* WAIT I'M SOR- Giratina: OMNOMNOMNOM *grabs Cyrus and drags him back into the portal kicking and screaming. Later... Cynthia and Player are in the Distortion World trying to find Giratina. Suddenly it just flys up to them in it's (admittedly horrific) Origin Forme. Giratina: HEY KIDS! WANNA SEE A DEAD BODY!?!?!? *flys off spinning around doing the 'woopwoopwoop'*
