The Griseous Orb is an exclusive item for Giratina introduced in Pokémon Platinum. This item is the only way to transform Giratina into Origin Forme. When held by Giratina, it changes to Origin Forme and its Dragon and Ghost-type attacks increase in power by 20%.
The item can only be found if the player has caught Giratina from the Distortion World. If so, it can be found in an alternate part of the Distortion World which can be accessed inside Turnback Cave after the player has solved its puzzle. In Pokémon Black and White, it can be obtained from the Shadow Triad on Marvelous Bridge after the story's completion. In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, it can be obtained in the Dragonspiral Tower, along with the rest of the orbs.

Trivia[]
- The Griseous Orb is actually crystal-like in shape, not spherical like the Adamant Orb and the Lustrous Orb.
- If a Giratina with the Griseous Orb is taken into a battle against a player with Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, the Griseous Orb will go back to the player's bag. This is probably because Origin Forme is exclusive to Platinum only.
