Regigigas
PvP Analysis
Hidden Power + Thunder and Focus Blast or Return* |
---|
Hidden Power is superior to Zen Headbutt, in addition to offering a large variety of coverage options. The specific typing that's more preferable can vary depending on the PvP format, with some typings more relevant than others. Fighting and Ground each cover 5 different typings, including the popular Steel types, Ice covers popular Dragon and Flying types, and Dark is useful against common Psychic and Ghost types in Ultra and Master League.
Thunder is the primary charge move due to its lower energy cost, which generally sees the most use due to poor energy generation. Return, exclusive to purified Regigigas, is its next cheapest option and deletes just about any Pokemon that doesn't resist it. Focus Blast is recommended over Giga Impact despite the later benefiting from STAB, primarily due to its coverage.
Great League | 0 / 5 |
---|---|
Regigigas is not eligible due to its CP being too high for the Great League CP cap, even if it would be obtained from special research and then traded to reroll its IVs. With 0% IVs, Regigigas at level 15 would have 1651 CP. | |
Ultra League | 0 / 5 |
Regigigas is a difficult Pokemon to use in PvP due to its high ATK stat which limits its bulk in a CP capped Ultra League, in addition to poor options in its fast moves. While its charge moves are quite good, below average energy generation limits their usage, and Regigigas often faints before being able to use its charge moves more than once. | |
Master League | 1 / 5 |
Regigigas actually boasts one of the highest stat products in the game and a monstrous CP to boot. But alas, it's stuck with a terrible moveset. Its primary use is showing off for the sake of content, which can be hilarious if Regigigas manages to lock itself against the few matchups it can actually win against. In any serious play, it'll struggle to get off more than 2 Charged Attacks thanks to its sluggish moveset. |
