well,we dont even know what this new forms base stats are yet, so how can you say normal beats it because of stat distribution?
I like the normal one. Giving pokemon new forms seems stupid to me.
No, it can learn Fly. Just look it up in the Pokedex.The normal Giratina form neither learns fly (I don't think so, but even if it does it's not as rediculous as taillow being able to carry you) nor is seen flying.
