All five Gigaremo Units.

Gigaremo Units are large and heavy computers used by Team Dim Sun to control Pokémon in Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia. They are notorious for requiring at least four Dim Sun minions to carry one (although Big Bertha is capable of carrying two Gigaremo Units simultaneously).

They appear in five colors, each one of which requires a different Field Move to destroy. The red require Soak 2, blue Electrify 2, yellow Crush 2, green Burn 2, and black None. Their ability is to hypnotize and control the Pokémon in the area in which they are placed. They have different controls, like dig, attack and march.

In Altru Tower, the only black Gigaremo Units in the game are seen restraining Template:P2 in the form of a dark mist.

Gigaremo Units mistaken for other objects

Common civilians mistake these sometimes as other objects, like stoves and coffee machines.

  • When Professor Hastings first saw Gigaremo Units, he mistook them for mailboxes.
  • Henry in Haruba Village mistook a red Gigaremo Unit for a coffee maker, and while using it to make coffee, was also unintentionally causing a horrible sandstorm, as well as hypnotizing the entire town's Hippopotas population.
  • A group of people in Shiver Camp mistook a red Gigaremo Unit for a stove. However, this mistake was harmless, as they cleared out everything mechanical within the Unit, and filled it with wood, thereby preventing the Gigaremo from working.

Miniremo Units

Due to the Gigaremo's extreme heaviness making it rather inconvenient to carry, Team Dim Sun later upgrades to a smaller model of the Gigaremo called the Miniremo, which resembles a laptop computer. This version was invented by Isaac, in contrast with the original model, which was, after years of research, constructed by Altru's most intelligent scientists. Blake Hall is ultimately seen terminating the production of Gigaremo and Miniremo units in preparation for the launch of the Incredible Machine, which itself is a Gigaremo built into the size of a gigantic tower.

Trivia

  • Though the black Gigaremo Units require the None field move to clear, your Partner Pokémon (the only Pokémon that can accompany you that has no field move) is unable to break them.
    • Incidentially, Darkrai is later able to destroy these Gigaremo Units, despite having the Dark Power field move, as opposed to None.
