Regigigas is a gargantuan legendary Pokémon that was introduced in the fourth generation games. It acts as the leader and creator of a trio of legendary Pokémon from the third generation which consists of Regirock, Regice and Registeel. Although it is possible to obtain it normally within the games, it is also distributed at Pokémon events.

Information

Regigigas is a large and powerful Pokémon. One legend associated with it claims that it used to tow continents using ropes. Regigigas made three different types of Pokémon as smaller versions of itself. Regirock, Regice and Registeel were made from clay/rocks, Arctic ice/a special ice mountain and magma respectively. Regigigas seems to have some power over them and may also be connected to the ancient civilization (seen in Hoenn) that originally sealed the three Regis away. They did specifically state that the sealing occurred because they feared "it", which sounds like it would refer to Regigigas instead of the other three Pokémon.

Appearances

Mainstream Games

In Pokémon: Diamond, Pearl and Platinum Versions, Regigigas slumbered at the bottom of Snowpoint Temple and would only wake if the player had all three of the other Regis in their party. The Regis had to be transferred from the third generation or caught in Platinum, although to make them appear in Platinum, the player ironically would need to have an event Regigigas.
