'''Regigigas''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レジギガス''' ''Regigigas'') is a {{type|Normal}} [[Legendary Pokémon]] introduced in [[Generation IV]].


It comes to life only when {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}} are gathered. Therefore, it requires the three to be in the player's [[party]] to awaken it within the [[Snowpoint Temple]] (or [[Twist Mountain]]), where it sleeps. It still appears if they are absent, but does not awaken and the player regards it as a statue.
It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.


It is the [[trio master]] of [[Hoenn]]'s [[legendary golems]].
Regigigas is the creator of the [[legendary giants]], often viewed as their [[Legendary leader|leader]] by fans.

===Physiology===
[[File:Regigigas orb.png|thumb|left|250px|Regigigas in its slumbering state.]]
Regigigas shares several traits with the [[Legendary golems|Regis]]. For instance, it has seven dot-like "eyes" arranged in a specific pattern. The braille pattern is Regigigas's way of showing emotion (red if angry, blue if sad, etc.). It has six spots that are apart from its eyes, which seem to be gemstones. These gemstones seem to represent the Regis, with the red gems representing {{p|Regirock}}, the blue gems representing {{p|Regice}} and the silver gems representing {{p|Registeel}}. It has a golem-like shape and is primarily white in coloration, possessing long arms, with three fairly human-like white fingers, and short legs. It has large yellow-colored bands on its shoulders and wrists, with a sloping section on its chest that appears to be its head also being yellow. Its body is covered in black stripes, and it has moss growing in its back and feet, which may indicate it has been asleep for a long time.
Regigigas is a large, white, golem-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It has large yellow bands on its shoulders and wrists, and a yellow sloping section on its chest that appears to be its head. This section contains seven black circular "eyes" arranged in a specific pattern. The pattern is Regigigas's way of showing its anger; its eyes glow red when it is provoked. It has six spots that are apart from its eyes, which appear to be gemstones. These gemstones seem to represent the original three [[legendary giants]], with red gems representing {{p|Regirock}}, blue gems indicating {{p|Regice}}, and silver gems representing {{p|Registeel}}. Regigigas has long arms, with three fairly human-like white fingers, and short legs. Its body is covered in black stripes, and it has large bushes of moss growing in its back and feet.
====Gender differences====
Regigigas is a genderless species.
 
===Special abilities===
According to its [[Pokédex]] entries, the legends say that its extremely high attack stat, combined with its colossal strength, enables it to move continents.
Regigigas is capable of communicating via telepathy.
 
Regigigas is decent at crafting as it is capable of making golems of inanimate objects and bring them to life. Regigigas is capable of controlling these [[legendary golems]], even if they already belong to a {{pkmn|Trainer}}.
 
Regigigas is also able to survive extreme conditions as it is capable of working with high temperature {{p|Registeel|magma}},  ({{tt|1300-2400°F|700-1300°C}}) as well as extremely cold {{p|Regice|ice}} ({{tt|-328°F|-200°C}}).
 
===Behavior===
When Regigigas is disturbed from its slumber within [[Snowpoint Temple]], it goes on a rampage and shoots powerful {{m|Hyper Beam}}s. When it is befriended, however, it is calm and gentle, as seen in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]''.
 
===Habitat===
It resides in the [[Snowpoint Temple]], having done so for hundreds, maybe thousands of years. According to the [[braille]] in the [[Generation III]] games, it was sealed away in order to protect people, and three keys (the [[legendary golems]]) were created so that only one with the power of {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}} would be able to catch it. Regigigas can handle any terrain.
 
===Diet===

==In the anime==
[[File:Regigigas anime.png|right|thumb|250px|Regigigas in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Regigigas appeared in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. In the movie, it lives in a temple in the mountains of {{si|Gracidea}}. It had been asleep for centuries, for so long that moss began to grow on its body. However, when [[Zero]] entered the [[Reverse World]] and began shattering pillars of ice within it, the glacier in front of Regigigas' temple suffered catastrophic explosions and began moving. This disturbed the great titan's slumber, rousing it into action. When [[Dawn's Buneary]] and {{TP|Dawn|Swinub|Mamoswine}} failed to stop the glacier with the help of a large group of wild Pokémon, Regigigas appeared in the command of a herd of dozens of {{p|Mamoswine}} and together, they began pushing on the glacier to hold it back. Regigigas returned to its temple at the end of the movie, where it is seen using {{m|Hyper Beam}} on {{TRT}} during the credits.
 
Another Regigigas appeared in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship]]'' at the [[Snowpoint Temple]]. [[J]] wanted to steal it so it was rudely awakened by her. It went on a rampage after, using {{m|Hyper Beam}} on practically anything. It even used {{m|Confuse Ray}} to control [[Pyramid King Brandon]]'s set of [[legendary golems]] to help it. At the end of the episode, it healed Brandon and his golems using {{m|Hidden Power}} to restore them from their petrification. It was then taken back to the temple to return to its slumber.
 
===Minor appearances===
A Regigigas appeared as part of Meowth's [[boss fantasy]] in ''[[DP173|Dealing With a Fierce Double Ditto Drama!]]'', alongside Giratina.
 
A Regigigas appeared in the opening scenes of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

==In the manga==
Regigigas is a skilled craftsman. It created golems out of inanimate objects and elemental energies in its image, bringing them to life. Regigigas is also capable of controlling these legendary giants, even if they already belong to a different {{pkmn|Trainer}}. It can also survive extreme conditions as it is able to work with the boiling temperatures of magma as well as frigid ice (−328&nbsp;°F / −200&nbsp;°C). When Regigigas is disturbed from its slumber, it goes on a rampage and shoots powerful beams of energy. When it is befriended, however, it is calm and gentle, as seen in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]''. According to Sinnoh legend, Regigigas's strength enables it to move continents. Regigigas can be summoned or awakened by the legendary giants.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Gi}}
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], its silhouette was first seen inside the [[Snowpoint Temple]] in ''[[PS400|Bogging Down Quagsire]]''. When {{Adv|Platinum}}, [[Maylene]], and [[Candice]] were about to freeze in a blizzard following their defeat at the hands of [[Jupiter]], it was the one who carried them to safety. Whilst in her trance, Platinum unconsciously rolled over an empty [[Poké Ball]] to the creature, and it ended up in her bag before choosing to join {{Adv|Diamond}} in an effort to stop {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}'s clash. It was later named "Gi."
 
===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===
{{main|Hareta's Regigigas}}
In [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]], [[Hareta]] captures Regigigas by persuading it to help him stop [[Team Galactic]].

==In the anime==
===Main series===
[[File:Regigigas anime.png|thumb|250px|Regigigas in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====Major appearances====
Regigigas debuted in ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''. It lives in a temple in the mountains of [[Ten'i Village]] and had been asleep for centuries, subsequently having moss growing on its feet and shoulders. However, when [[Zero]] entered the [[Reverse World]] and began shattering pillars of ice within it, the glacier in front of Regigigas' temple suffered catastrophic explosions and began moving. This disturbed its slumber, rousing it into action. When [[Dawn's Buneary]] and {{TP|Dawn|Swinub}} failed to stop the glacier with the help of a large group of [[wild Pokémon]], Regigigas appeared and commanded a herd of dozens of {{p|Mamoswine}} to hold the glacier back. Once the crisis was resolved, Regigigas returned to its temple. It was last seen using {{m|Hyper Beam}} on {{TRT}} during the ending credits.
 
Regigigas made its main series debut in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'' at the [[Snowpoint Temple]]. [[J]] wanted to steal it, and a result, it was rudely awakened. It went on a rampage afterwards, using Hyper Beam on anything. It even used {{m|Confuse Ray}} to control {{an|Brandon}}'s set of {{TP|Brandon|legendary giants}} and force them to help it. At the end of the episode, it healed Brandon and his giants using {{m|Hidden Power}} to restore them from their petrification. It was then taken back to the temple to return to its slumber.
 
In ''[[JN113|Chasing to the Finish!]]'', a [[Dynamax]] Regigigas was awakened in the [[Crown Tundra]] after [[Project Mew]] succeeded in gathering all the legendary giants together.
 
====Minor appearances====
In ''[[DP173|Dealing With a Fierce Double Ditto Drama!]]'', {{MTR}}'s [[boss fantasy]] featured a Regigigas.
 
A Regigigas appeared in the opening sequence of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.
 
In the beginning of ''[[M18|Hoopa and the Clash of Ages]]'', a Regigigas was summoned by a {{an|Hoopa}} Unbound in [[Dahara City]] one hundred years prior to the events of the {{pkmn|movie}}, alongside a {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}. The three fought Hoopa, but were easily defeated and sent back through portals to their original homes.

===Pokémon Generations===
[[File:Regigigas PG.png|thumb|250px|Regigigas in [[Pokémon Generations]]]]
In ''[[PG01|The Adventure]]'', a {{pkmn2|wild}} Regigigas was awakened in the [[Snowpoint Temple]] by a nearby battle between {{ga|Red's Pikachu}} and a wild {{p|Probopass}}. It proceeded to easily smack Probopass aside, shrug off Pikachu's {{t|Electric}} attack, and retaliate with a devastating attack of its own.

===Pokémon Adventures===
{{main|Reg}}

When {{adv|Platinum}}, [[Maylene]], and [[Candice]] were about to freeze in a blizzard following their defeat at the hands of [[Jupiter]], it was the one who carried them to safety. Whilst in her trance, Platinum unconsciously rolled over an empty {{i|Poké Ball}} to the creature, and it ended up in her bag before choosing to join {{adv|Diamond}} in an effort to stop {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}'s clash. It was later named "Reg."
 
===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Due to {{a|Slow Start|its Ability}} weakening it, Regigigas has more in common with {{p|Slaking}} than it does with other [[Legendary Pokémon|legendaries]]. They share the {{type|Normal}}, the same base stat total of 670, the same base {{stat|Attack}} stat of 160, and [[ability|Abilities]] that limit their power.
* Due to {{a|Slow Start|its Ability}} [[:Category:Abilities with negative effects|weakening it]], Regigigas has more in common with {{p|Slaking}} than it does with other [[Legendary Pokémon]]. They share the same {{t|Normal}} [[type]], the same base stat total of 670, the same base {{stat|Attack}} stat of 160, and {{Abilities}} that limit their power.
** Regigigas and {{p|Slaking}} also have the highest [[base stats|base stat]] in {{stat|Attack}} of all {{type|Normal}} Pokémon. They have the fourth highest attack of all Pokémon, after {{p|Deoxys}}'s Attack Forme, Black {{p|Kyurem}}, and {{p|Rampardos}}.
** Regigigas and Slaking also have the highest base {{stat|Attack}} stat of all Normal-type {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.
* It is the only Pokémon who can learn [[TM]]s that cannot learn {{TM|17|Protect}} or {{TM|44|Rest}}. This is probably to prevent people from countering its own Ability by avoiding damage or healing itself.
* Regigigas is the only one of the [[legendary giants]] not to have its type referenced in its name.
* Regigigas is the only one of the [[Legendary golems|Regis]] not to have its type in its name. {{p|Regirock}} is a {{type|Rock}}, {{p|Regice}} is an {{type|Ice}}, and {{p|Registeel}} is {{type|Steel}}.
* In Platinum, by hacking to obtain [[Cherish Ball]]s, it is possible to trick the game into opening {{si|Rock Peak Ruins|Rock Peak}}, {{si|Iceberg Ruins|Iceberg}}, and {{si|Iron Ruins}}: by catching the in-game Regigigas in a Cherish Ball, the game thinks the Regigigas was obtained at an event.
** Regigigas is also the only one of the Regis that does not use the remix of the legendary golem battle theme in {{v2|Platinum}}. Instead, it uses the legendary battle theme, much like in {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}}.
* In [[Generation IV]], Regigigas is the only Pokémon required to acquire the [[diploma]] that cannot be obtained without the use of [[Pal Park]] or an event, even with all Generation IV titles. This limitation occurs because Regigigas cannot be obtained without the use of the other legendary giants, which in turn cannot be obtained without either [[transfer]]ring them from [[Generation III]] or obtaining them in Platinum with an event Regigigas.
*** In [[Pokémon Black 2 and White 2 Versions|Black 2 and White 2]], however, the remix of the legendary golem battle theme is used.
* Regigigas is the only [[Generation IV]] Legendary Pokémon whose Attack stat is higher than its {{stat|Special Attack}} stat.
* Regigigas is one of the two [[trio master]]s which were not introduced in the same generation as its trio, along with {{p|Lugia}}.
* Regigigas, {{p|Magikarp}}, and {{p|Gyarados}} are the three {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that can be encountered in the {{pkmn2|wild}} at the lowest and highest levels.
* Due to their [[Type|types]], Regigigas and the other legendary golems all share a common weakness to {{type|Fighting}} moves.
** Regigigas is the lowest-[[level]]ed Legendary Pokémon that can be encountered in the wild, being level 1 when fought in {{game|Platinum}}.
* Despite being called the Colossal Pokémon, Regigigas is only the fourteenth tallest Pokémon and only the eighth heaviest.
** Regigigas also has the highest level of any scripted Pokémon encounter in the wild at level 100 in the [[The Crown Tundra]], tied with the Shadow {{p|Giratina}} in [[Ramanas Park]] in [[Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl]].
* In Platinum, by hacking to obtain Cherish Balls, it is possible to trick the game into opening [[Rock Peak Ruins|Rock Peak]], [[Iceberg Ruins|Iceberg]], and [[Iron Ruins]]: by catching the in-game Regigigas in a Cherish Ball, the game thinks the Regigigas was obtained at a Nintendo event.
* In {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Regigigas has the widest [[walking Pokémon|overworld sprite]] of all Pokémon.
* Regigigas's strength is exaggerated in the legend that it towed the continents with ropes; in its first appearance in the movie Giratina and the Sky Warrior, Regigigas failed to push back a glacier even with the help of many Mamoswine, despite what the legend claimed. This could be due to its {{a|Slow Start|Ability}} though, as it had just awoken when it went to stop the glacier.  
* Regigigas and {{p|Eternatus}} have very similar category names in Japanese, with the only difference being in how they're written: Regigigas's category name is in {{wp|hiragana}} (きょだいポケモン), while Eternatus's category name is in {{wp|katakana}} (キョダイポケモン). In either case, the category name is pronounced the same: {{tt|''Kyodai Pokémon''|Gigantic Pokémon}}.
* In [[Generation IV]], Regigigas is the only Pokémon required to acquire the [[Diploma]] that cannot be obtained without the use of [[Generation III]] games or an event, even with all Generation IV titles. This limitation occurs because Regigigas cannot be obtained without the use of the other legendary golems, which in turn cannot be obtained without either importing them from Generation III or obtaining them in Platinum with an event Regigigas.
* In [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], Regigigas is the only Legendary Pokémon whose [[Research task (Legends: Arceus)|research tasks]] for the [[Pokédex]] do not involve seeing it use its [[signature move]].


===Origin===
===Origin===
Regigigas is based on the {{wp|golem}}s 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. While the legendary golem's type can be associated as the {{wp|three-age system|three major ages}}, Regigigas could also be a reference to the {{wp|Mesozoic Era}}, as it is famed by legend to have towed the continents in the [[Pokémon world]].
Regigigas seems to be based on the {{wp|golem}}s 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, or even killed in some legends. It may also be based on the {{wp|Titan (mythology)|Titans}} of {{wp|Greek mythology}}. It could also draw some inspiration from the {{wp|Daidarabotchi}}, a gigantic ''{{wp|yōkai}}'', due to its ability to easily manipulate mountains, while also notably sharing similarities to Ōmitsunu, a demigod who pulled land via ropes to expand his kingdom. Its form also resembles that of a ''{{wp|headless men|Blemmyes}}''. Regigigas 's face that consists of seven dots may be based on {{wp|Braille alphabet}} which was necessary to use to encounter the [[legendary giants]] for the first time in [[Sealed Chamber]].
 
Regigigas's three pairs of eyes might represent its servant golems that were introduced before it, the red pair might represent {{p|Regirock}}, the blue pair might represent {{p|Regice}} and the gray pair might represent {{p|Registeel}}.
 
Regigigas also seems to have parallels to the Legendary Golem of Prague, whose immense power also intimidated people. This ultimately resulted in it being overrun and sealed away in an attic. Conversely, Regigigas was sealed in a basement. It being sealed could also be a reference to the aftermath of the {{wp|titanomachy}}, which resulted in the titans being imprisoned away in the underworld.

Regigigas (Japanese: レジギガス Regigigas) is a Normal-type Legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Regigigas is the creator of the legendary giants, often viewed as their leader by fans.

Biology

Regigigas in its slumbering state.

Regigigas is a large, white, golem-like Pokémon. It has large yellow bands on its shoulders and wrists, and a yellow sloping section on its chest that appears to be its head. This section contains seven black circular "eyes" arranged in a specific pattern. The pattern is Regigigas's way of showing its anger; its eyes glow red when it is provoked. It has six spots that are apart from its eyes, which appear to be gemstones. These gemstones seem to represent the original three legendary giants, with red gems representing Regirock, blue gems indicating Regice, and silver gems representing Registeel. Regigigas has long arms, with three fairly human-like white fingers, and short legs. Its body is covered in black stripes, and it has large bushes of moss growing in its back and feet.

Regigigas is a skilled craftsman. It created golems out of inanimate objects and elemental energies in its image, bringing them to life. Regigigas is also capable of controlling these legendary giants, even if they already belong to a different Trainer. It can also survive extreme conditions as it is able to work with the boiling temperatures of magma as well as frigid ice (−328 °F / −200 °C). When Regigigas is disturbed from its slumber, it goes on a rampage and shoots powerful beams of energy. When it is befriended, however, it is calm and gentle, as seen in Pillars of Friendship!. According to Sinnoh legend, Regigigas's strength enables it to move continents. Regigigas can be summoned or awakened by the legendary giants.

Regigigas is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Crush Grip. Prior to Generation IX, Slow Start was its signature Ability.

In the anime

Main series

Regigigas in the anime

Major appearances

Regigigas debuted in Giratina and the Sky Warrior. It lives in a temple in the mountains of Ten'i Village and had been asleep for centuries, subsequently having moss growing on its feet and shoulders. However, when Zero entered the Reverse World and began shattering pillars of ice within it, the glacier in front of Regigigas' temple suffered catastrophic explosions and began moving. This disturbed its slumber, rousing it into action. When Dawn's Buneary and Swinub failed to stop the glacier with the help of a large group of wild Pokémon, Regigigas appeared and commanded a herd of dozens of Mamoswine to hold the glacier back. Once the crisis was resolved, Regigigas returned to its temple. It was last seen using Hyper Beam on Team Rocket during the ending credits.

Regigigas made its main series debut in Pillars of Friendship! at the Snowpoint Temple. J wanted to steal it, and a result, it was rudely awakened. It went on a rampage afterwards, using Hyper Beam on anything. It even used Confuse Ray to control Brandon's set of legendary giants and force them to help it. At the end of the episode, it healed Brandon and his giants using Hidden Power to restore them from their petrification. It was then taken back to the temple to return to its slumber.

In Chasing to the Finish!, a Dynamax Regigigas was awakened in the Crown Tundra after Project Mew succeeded in gathering all the legendary giants together.

Trivia

Origin

Regigigas seems to be 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, or even killed in some legends. It may also be based on the Titans of Greek mythology. It could also draw some inspiration from the Daidarabotchi, a gigantic yōkai, due to its ability to easily manipulate mountains, while also notably sharing similarities to Ōmitsunu, a demigod who pulled land via ropes to expand his kingdom. Its form also resembles that of a Blemmyes. Regigigas 's face that consists of seven dots may be based on Braille alphabet which was necessary to use to encounter the legendary giants for the first time in Sealed Chamber.

Regigigas's three pairs of eyes might represent its servant golems that were introduced before it, the red pair might represent Regirock, the blue pair might represent Regice and the gray pair might represent Registeel.

Regigigas also seems to have parallels to the Legendary Golem of Prague, whose immense power also intimidated people. This ultimately resulted in it being overrun and sealed away in an attic. Conversely, Regigigas was sealed in a basement. It being sealed could also be a reference to the aftermath of the titanomachy, which resulted in the titans being imprisoned away in the underworld.

Name origin

Regigigas may be a combination of regis (Latin for royal) and gigas (Latin for giant).
