Sometimes I think you're overthinking it.

Firstly, contrary to the popular belief, being the Devil's number is 666, is not true. The actual number is 616. But yes, there is a connection.

enter image description here+enter image description here= Devils.

Yes, there is a lost of connection overall. Even with 666 and 616. Six Wings, Six spikes, Six Stipes and Six Legs. Giratina has a lot of 6's. The Giratina Description also says "Renegade Pokemon." Meaning it is somewhat evil, and is made to be a kind of Dark Beast Shadow. The point of your question though is true. Pokemon and GAMEFREAK designed Giratina as a Devil, so your observations are correct.

I though I was the only one to know that 616 was the Devil number. Giratina pokedex says it was banned for it's violence implying it was pretty dangerous.
not a demon, its a creature from a diffrent dimension
According to your answer, shelmet is the devil.
Giratina is supposed to be antimatter, playing in with the other two bad boys from this gen representing time and space.
NO! THE DEVIL'S NUMBER IS 666!
i would think Darkrai is the devil

Giratina may be considered the Devil in Pokemon, but only because the story behind Arceus and Giratina was connected to Christianity, with the two main figures, God and Satan. Arceus represents God, while Giratina represents Satan. It's natural for others to consider him as a Devil Pokemon.

No Giratina is the representation of antimatter (officially confirmed by the creators) people are so fanatic with this idea that giratina is a demonic being that they forget that all of this is just speculation and does not have any official evidence to suport it, plus theres a lot more going on with it's design than just "fallen angel", and the hole thing of the 666 makes no sence due to the fact that theres a bunch of other mons with the same pattern so its not exclusive to giratina and with the revelation of its beta design we can see that giratina was allways meant to have 6 legs, so its more of a coincidence than an actual intended thing.

While I dont blame people for thinking this, people sometimes forget that Pokemon is a game meant for all types of ages including children, and the concept of the devil is not that kid friendly, plus satan is an extremely controversial figure and I doubt that GF wants controversy, while I dont disagree that giratina may have some inspirations with the concept of a fallen angels banishement story, there is clearly a lot more with its design than just meets the eye, and this over exaggerated connections with satan that Pokemon fans do ruined the character and what it was meant to be.

i now understand why parents were afraid that Pokemon was a demonic game and I dont blame them

Soo which pokemon are like Giratina's design?
what do you mean ?, if you talking about the 666 crap then i can give you some examples, take groudon with 6 spikes on its neck 6 spikes close to its tail and 6 toes, heres another one zekrom with 6 things that form its wings 6 fingers and 6 things (that i dont know the name) close to its fingers that looks like hands, as i said the 666 thing is more a coincidence than an actual intended thing(at least in my opinion) believe in what you want to believe.
Ok never thought of that makes sense
