RegigigasPrismatic Evolutions #86 Pokémon Card

Regigigas, the Colossal Pokémon, is a Normal-type Legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation IV. It is revered as the creator of the other three legendary golem Pokémon—Regirock, Regice, and Registeel—shaping them from special ice mountains, rocks, and magma. According to Sinnohan lore, Regigigas is a slumbering giant, capable of moving entire continents with ropes of its own making. Its immense power is often depicted as being slowed by its "Slow Start" ability in the main series games, which reduces its Attack and Speed stats for the first five turns of battle, reflecting its ancient, slow awakening. Regigigas makes its home in ancient ruins or temples, such as the Snowpoint Temple in Sinnoh or the Twist Mountain in Unova, often requiring the presence of its three golem creations to awaken. Its role in the games is typically that of a post-game legendary, a formidable challenge for trainers seeking to complete their Pokédex. In the anime, it has been shown to protect its golem creations and exhibit incredible strength. Culturally, Regigigas embodies the raw, untamed power of creation and the deep history of the Pokémon world, symbolizing ancient forces that shaped the very land.
