Hi @gam3rartz

 

I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

I would like to inform you that when you are currently playing the story of a region, you will be able to use only the Pokémonnative of that region, meanwhile all the one native of other regions will be locked in your pc until you have the 8th badge of the region you're playing.

 

Therefore, as you're currently playing Sinnoh's story, all your Kanto/Johto/Hoenn Pokèmon have been blocked into your PC and you will be able to use them only after you will have obtained the 8th badge of Sinnoh.

The fact that a lock is not being displayed over the Pokémon might just be a visual bug, but i can assure you that Pokémon like your Charizard, Dragonite, Raichu etc will be locked until you obtain the 8th badge of sinnoh as they are native of other regions and not from Sinnoh.

 

Regard your issue in beating Giratina, i can suggest you to catch a Sturdy Graveler and teach it Toxic and use it then on Giratina. You will see that each turn Giratina will receive more and more damage until it will faint. Revives can be also useful in this case as they can help you to make the battle longer while the pokemon is poisoned.

 

I hope the information given provided some clarification, please let me know if you have any further questions.

Have a wonderful day!
