Samuel shows the entrance to the temple on a screen, revealing a figure whom Ash recognizes as Hunter [[J]]. Brandon tells Maria and Samuel about J, also telling Ash and friends that he is here to do research on the legend, which has basis in fact. As Ash presents the idea of stopping J from catching Regigigas, [[J's henchmen]] see the Pyramid and inform J. J orders her henchmen not to let the Pyramid get near, and they send out a virtual army of {{p|Metang}} and {{p|Skarmory}} to attack the Pyramid with {{m|Sludge Bomb}} and {{m|Flash Cannon}}, respectively. One of the engines is  hit, forcing an emergency landing. Brandon, Maria and the gang leave in a small airship, while Samuel stays to repair the Pyramid’s motor. The henchmen notice the small craft, and order their Pokémon to attack, but the gang is saved by {{AP|Pikachu}}, who uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the Skarmory, and {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}, who uses {{m|BubbleBeam}} on the Metang. After defeating the Pokémon, Brandon, Maria, and the gang run into the temple.

Meanwhile, J has reached the three pillars and sends out {{TP|J|Salamence}}, commanding it to destroy them with {{m|Hyper Beam}}. The ice and rock pillars are easily destroyed, and, just when Salamence is about to destroy the steel pillar, Brandon yells for J to stop. Maria explains that awakening Regigigas is a bad idea, but Salamence destroys the steel pillar anyway. A small blue ball between where the pillars once stood has begun to glow, but, other than that, there is no sign of Regigigas' awakening. J commands Salamence to use {{m|Flamethrower}}, much to Brandon’s dismay. Suddenly, a triangle on the floor that had connected the pillars begins to glow, and Regigigas appears, immediately using Hyper Beam on the temple's walls and ceiling. J prepares to turn Regigigas to stone, but Regigigas stops her with Hyper Beam, forcing Salemence to counter it with {{m|Dragon Pulse}}. J retreats while Regigigas goes on a rampage. As the temple starts to collapse, Brandon sends out his {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Regirock}}, {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Regice}} and {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Registeel}}. The golems save the gang from being buried in falling rock by using {{m|Focus Punch}}, {{m|Zap Cannon}} and {{m|Flash Cannon}}, respectively. The gang escape, protected by the golems, right before the temple collapses into a pile of rubble. Just when Brock notes that Regigigas cannot escape the rubble, it suddenly breaks out, still shooting Hyper Beam in every direction.

Brandon decides to calm Regigigas down by attempting a {{pkmn2|caught|capture}}. His golems use Hyper Beam, but Regigigas counters it with a Hyper Beam of its own. The golems then charge Regigigas to use Focus Punch together, but Regigigas pins them down with {{m|Hammer Arm}}. Regirock and Registeel then grab onto Regigigas, and Regice uses {{m|Ice Beam}}, {{status|Freeze|freezing}} Regigigas along with Regirock and Registeel.
