However, Cynthia points out the problems are due to the Distortion World being forcibly merged with the real one, and by defeating Giratina the connection can be severed. Cynthia will then heal your team. Before going forward to face Giratina, you need to decide if you want to catch it now or later. Save your game before using the platforms to reach it. Once you move forward and see Giratina fly by, move forward again and then some invisible platforms will become visible, allowing you to reach Giratina.

She also deduces that Saturn's operation of catching Azelf it made it easier to catch Mesprit due to it sensing that Azelf is in danger and made the cave appear to head out.

After this, head north to reach Jubilife City. GameFAQ.com user AnimeJet put together a helpful chart displaying the various strengths and weaknesses of the Pokémon types. When you're fighting a specific type of Pokémon, find its type on the upper section of the chart, then follow the line below it down until you find a circle. Follow the circle's line to the left and you should find a Pokémon type that is strong against your foe. Note that it is sometimes difficult to tell what kind of Pokémon you're fighting if you don't have them in your Pokedex; some educated guesswork based on their features may be required! A new Pokémon with flames coming from its body is almost certainly a Fire-type Pokémon, for instance.
