Regigigas Weakness

Type-wise, Regigigas takes extra damage from Fighting. Ghost moves do nothing thanks to a full immunity. Regigigas's overall bulk (110/110/110) lets it take a hit or two from most weaknesses before going down.

B2W2 Regigigas Best Moveset

160 Attack and 110/110 defenses rival legendaries, but AbilitySlow Start halves Attack and Speed for five turns after entry. The moveset can't function for five turns, and opponents simply overwhelm it during the penalty. Once the penalty ends, the power is real. Almost nobody waits that long.

Pokemon Black 2 / Pokemon White 2

Regigigas Black 2 & White 2 Guide

  • In Black 2 & White 2, Regigigas is a Legendary Pokemon rated B-Tier. At 670 BST, it hits hard. It excels as a sweeper. Drain Punch with Leftovers is the standard set.

  • Regigigas is a static encounter at Unova Twist Mountain in Black 2 & White 2. Regigigas appears at level 68. Prerequisite: Requires Regirock, Regice and Registeel in party. Save before the encounter. These one-shot Pokemon don't respawn if you knock them out or run out of Poke Balls.

  • In Black 2 & White 2, Regigigas's biggest threats include Blaziken (Fighting), all carrying super-effective STAB moves. Only 1 weakness means fewer dedicated counters to worry about. Regigigas has enough bulk to absorb a hit, but don't push the matchup. Pivot to a teammate that resists.

  • Slow Start is the go-to ability for Regigigas. It halves Attack and Speed for five turns upon entering battle. It's Regigigas's only ability.

  • In Black 2 & White 2, Regigigas fills the sweeper role. It's a physical attacker with base 160 Attack. Base 100 Speed lets it outrun most of the field. And it's tanky enough to absorb a few hits.

Game Availability

Regigigas has appeared in 13 games since Diamond & Pearl, spanning 7 generations. As a Legendary, it's typically a one-per-save encounter tied to the story or post-game content.
