I really like Giratina. I think its a briliant pokemon. but I would like to point out a couple of things that have been bothering me, and explain why Giratina is far better with legs than without.
As you can see here, Giratina is in a sensible form. It is large and strong, with six legs ensuring maximum balance and a pair of wings suitable for flight. As a predator Giratina would probably be very effective.
Lets look at Giratina in its non-legged form:-
Here Giratina's is streamlined, and no doubt far faster than the other legged form. However, in this form, I fail to see how Giratina could possibly live, as its wings are thin and small, and the big gaps between the wings would create a large amount of air resistance. Therefore to stay up at all, Giratina would need to use a huge amount of energy. In the legged form this would not be a problem, as Giratina has the muscles capable of creating such energy. However in his non-legged form there barely seems any room for muscles which would be needed to create such energy, due to the un-aerodynamic features of the wings.
Assuming Giratina is able to produce the energy needed to fly, it then has to face the problem of food. Whilst the legged Giratina could feed on ground animals, the non-legged form would find this impossible, as it cannot move on the ground, and to eat a ground animal whilst hovering in the air would require Giratina to literally hover upside down. With its wings that have big gaps in them.
Thanks for reading this long,boring post and if you have any comments on this then please reply. I probably missed something, and no doubt someone will present me with an argument for non-legged Giratina. Please do
GIRATINA WITH LEGS IS AWESOME.
