DEXERTOThe Legendary Regigigas boasts one of the highest stats in Pokemon Go, so players going up against it must know the Colossal Pokemon’s weaknesses to secure a win in every encounter.
Introduced in Gen 4, Regigigas is the creator of the original Legendary Titans – Regice, Regirock, and Registeel – and the Twin Giants introduced in Sword & Shield’s DLC: Regieleki and Regidrago.
While every Titan was created with a particular element that gives them their type, this Colossal creature is just Normal. However, it has the highest Attack stat of the bunch, making it a strong fighter.
As a result, we’d recommend that every trainer add one to their collection. So, here’s everything you need to know about Regigigas in Pokemon Go.
Regigigas Pokemon Go Weaknesses
As a pure Normal-type Pokemon, Regigigas’s only weakness is Fighting-type moves. While it sounds like players will have a slim pool to pick from, that’s far from the truth, as the game has a lot of excellent Fighting-type attackers that will take down this Legendary in seconds.
Similar to its weaknesses, Regigigas only has one resistance, and it’s towards the Ghost type. This means that all trainers should avoid using any Ghost-type moves if they wish to succeed in battle.

If you don’t have any of the creatures mentioned, go with their alternative or regular versions, or just use your best Fighting-type attackers to target Regigigas’ weaknesses. Remember that they should be properly leveled up and have matching movesets.
How to get Regigigas in Pokemon Go
As with most of the Legendaries in the game, the best way to get Regiggas in Pokemon Go is to challenge and defeat it in 5-Star Raid battles. Then, attempt a catch with the Premier Balls you’re given after the encounter. The number of balls you get will depend on your battling performance, though.
The Colossal Pokemon will appear as a Raid boss on Thursday, June 26, 2025, as part of the Ancients Recovered event. Then, it will join the rest of the Regis for one final bow on Friday, June 27, 2025.
During its time in the spotlight, Regigas will know the Charged Move: Crush Grip.
NIANTICRemember to use Golden Razz Berries and land Excellent throws and Curve Balls to increase your chances of catching it.
There used to be other methods trainers could use to get Regigigas in the game, like completing Special/Timed Research tasks and rescuing Shadow Regigigas from Giovanni‘s grasp. However, the Team GO Rocket leader has switched the Colossal Pokemon for Dialga.
Regigigas CP in Pokemon Go
As with every Raid Boss in the game, the CP Regigigas has during a Raid battle won’t be the same once you manage to catch it after defeating it. Plus, certain types of weather can increase such CP.
| Raid Boss CP | 55,480 |
| CP range once captured | 2389 – 2483 |
| Partly Cloudy weather CP range | 2987 – 3104 |
| Regigigas max CP (Level 50) | 4913 |
Regigigas stats & moves

Can Regigigas be Shiny?
Yes, Regigigas can be Shiny in Pokemon Go, as this special variation was added to the game at the start of the Summer Solstice event in June 2021.
DEXERTOShiny hunters will have no trouble recognizing Shiny Regigigas as its regular white body gets a subtle light blue tone, and the eye-catching yellow details on its head, shoulders, and wrists change to purple blue.
It’s worth noting, though, that the odds of finding a Shiny Pokemon are very low, as there’s no special technique or method to secure an encounter. The only thing trainers can do to increase their chances is to hunt as many Regigigas as they can.
