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]], [[Twist Mountain]], or [[Island Cave]], where it sleeps. In the former two locations, it will still be present if those Pokémon are absent, but it does not awaken and only seems to be a statue to the player.

Regigigas is a large, white golem-like Pokémon with seven black circular "eyes" arranged in a specific pattern. The pattern is Regigigas' 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 be represent the other three Regis, with red gems representing {{p|Regirock}}, blue gems indicating {{p|Regice}} and silver ones representing {{p|Registeel}}. It has long arms, with three fairly human-like white fingers, and short legs that end in large mossy bushes instead of feet. Regigigas has large yellow bands on its shoulders and wrists, with a sloping section on its chest that appears to be its head and is also yellow. Its body is covered in black stripes, and it has moss growing in its back and feet. According to Sinnoh legend, Regigigas' strength enables it to move continents.

Regigigas is a skilled craftsman. It created golems out of inanimate objects and brought them to life. Regigigas is also capable of controlling these [[Legendary titans]], even if they already belong to a {{pkmn|Trainer}}. It can also survive extreme conditions as it is able to work with the boiling temperatures of magma ({{tt|1300-2400°F|700-1300°C}}) as well as frigid ice ({{tt|-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!]]''. It is able to crush targets by using its [[signature move]], {{m|Crush Grip}}.

* Due to {{a|Slow Start|its Ability}} weakening it, Regigigas has more in common with {{p|Slaking}} than it does with other [[Legendary Pokémon]]. They share the {{t|Normal}} type, the same base stat total of 670, the same base {{stat|Attack}} stat of 160, and [[Ability|Abilities]] that limit their power.

* In Platinum, by hacking to obtain {{ball|Cherish}}s, 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 [[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 titans, which in turn cannot be obtained without either importing them from Generation III or obtaining them in Platinum with an event Regigigas.
