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.

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 °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 ''[[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 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.
 
====Pokédex entries====

[[File:Regigigas PG.png|thumb|250px|Regigigas in [[Pokémon Generations]]]]

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."

==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 [[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.

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."

===Origin===
===Origin===
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]].
