Gigantic Pokémon Lugia

A gigantic Pokémon (Japanese: 巨大ポケモン gigantic Pokémon) is a Pokémon in Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX that takes up nine tiles rather than the usual one.

A gigantic Pokémon has a larger reach with its attacks, and some attacks are completely different, such as Outrage. Gigantic Pokémon are also immune to Sketch.

In Super Mystery Dungeon, The player can only bring one gigantic Pokémon into a dungeon at a time. However, it is possible to have up to five gigantic Pokémon on the player's team at one time if the player has at least two party members that know Transform use it on a gigantic Pokémon and brings the Djinn's Bottle into a dungeon and uses it to call Hoopa Unbound, who can further call a gigantic Legendary Pokémon.

In Rescue Team DX, this restriction is removed, and the player is allowed to have as many gigantic Pokémon as they would like, up to the max team size.

Gigantic Pokémon also existed in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, but were not playable.
