Diet

Nobody knows what Registeel eats, or if it even eats anything at all. It has no visible mouth with which to eat, however.
In the anime
Registeel made an appearance with Regice and Regirock in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew. The Regi Trio were guardians of the Tree of Beginning.
Ash battled against Brandon's Registeel in Overjoyed!. It also appeared again in Pace - The Final Frontier! along with Regirock where they blasted off Team Rocket.
Brandon used Registeel again in his battle with Paul. It battled with Paul's Magmar and easily took out his Nidoking. In the next episode he would release it so it could protect Regigigas in the Snowpoint Temple.

Sprites
Trivia
European DP sprite
- In the European (excluding UK & Ireland) versions of Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Registeel's sprite was edited because of its arm. The arm's original position is reminiscent of the greeting of the Nazis. In Pokémon Platinum, the sprite was changed for all regions to the continental European variation.
- Registeel and Mawile are the only pure Steel-type Pokémon.
- By being a pure Steel-type it has eleven resistances and one immunity, the second highest number among all Pokémon, second only to Magnemite and its evolutions. Other Pokémon who share this number of resistances and immunity are Mawile, Empoleon and Dialga.
- In Pokémon Ranger, Registeel is the only of the three Regis that has a Field Move. The other two have a Poké Assist instead. Registeel could be used on a boulder near its chamber to find a Dugtrio.
- Registeel, Regirock, and Regice are the Pokémon with the strongest move by base power, Explosion, as a starting move.
- In Generation III, Registeel had the weakest STAB move among all legendary Pokémon. Its only attack of its type, Metal Claw, has a base power of 50. Registeel learns Iron Head and Flash Cannon in Generation IV, eliminating this dubious distinction.
Origin
This Pokémon is based on the golems of Hebrew legend. The legends cast them as servants of higher powers and are said to have writing on their heads. When the writing is removed, the creature would be weakened. It may also be based upon a robot.
Name origin
This Pokémon's name is the combination of the words regius, which is Latin for royal, and steel.
