Regirock (Japanese: レジロック Regirock) is a Rock-type Pokémon.

Contents

Biology

Physiology

Regirock is a large golem made of rocks. Regirock has a braille pattern on its face that resembles a capital letter "H". The interesting thing about Regirock is that the rocks it is made of come from several different places. The reason for this is that whenever gets damaged in battle, it searches for rocks to repair itself with. This habit also contributes to Regirock's patchwork appearance. What is even stranger is that Regirock has no internal organs.

Gender differences

Regirock is genderless.

Special abilities

Regirock mostly knows Rock, Ground and Fighting-type attacks. For some odd reason, Regirock can learn Electrical attacks, more specifically the move Zap Cannon that it learns naturally. If Regirock is damaged, it can repair itself by building its body with rocks.

Habitat

Regirock was sealed in Hoenn's ancient ruins.
