Regirock (Japanese: レジロック Regirock) is a Rock-type Legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

It is a member of the Legendary titans along with Regice, Registeel, Regieleki, and Regidrago.

Biology

Regirock is a large golem made of brown rocks. Regirock has an orange pattern on its face that resembles a capital letter "H". It has long arms with jutting shoulders and club-like hands, its legs are short in comparison to its body. There is a line of rocky spines running down its back. When it gets damaged in battle it will search for new rocks to repair itself. Because of this, the rocks it is made of come from several different places, which contributes to Regirock's patchwork appearance. Regirock does not seem to have a heart or brain. It generally lives in caves.

Regirock debuted alongside the other members of its trio in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew. The trio were guardians of the Tree of Beginning, and Regirock was the first of the three to attack Ash and his friends. In the end, Regirock and the other members of its trio realized the group was not a danger and kept on with protecting the Tree of Beginning.

Brandon's Regirock

Regirock made its main series debut in Battling the Enemy Within!, under the ownership of Brandon. He used it to battle Ash when he was being possessed by the King of Pokélantis, and it was able to defeat Sceptile. It reappeared in Pace - The Final Frontier!, A Pyramiding Rage!, and Pillars of Friendship!.

Minor appearances

A Regirock made a cameo appearance alongside the other members of its trio in the opening sequence of The Rise of Darkrai, where they all fired Hyper Beams that combined into an extremely powerful one.

A Regirock briefly appeared in PK18, where it sent Meowth and his cronies blasting off after they tried to move it out of their way.

A Regirock appeared in a flashback in Pillars of Friendship!.

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

Main article: Brandon's Regirock

Regirock debuted in The Beginning of the End with Kyogre & Groudon XIV, when Sidney was attempted to open the Desert Ruins. Together, Steven and Sapphire created a team consisting of four Beldum and Sapphire's Relicanth and Wailord, thus opening up the chamber containing Regirock, as well as the other two titans, Registeel and Regice. Regirock used Superpower to stop Groudon and Kyogre from spreading destruction. After the battle, it and the other two titans—left weak and powerless—traveled to the mountains, where they were later caught by Brandon shortly before the opening ceremony of the Battle Frontier.

Brandon used Regirock first in his battle with Emerald, where it found Sceptile's Leech Seed attack to be of minor annoyance and knocked it out right away with its Explosion attack. However, while the Pyramid King's attention was focused on Jirachi's light coming from the horizon, Emerald was able to revitalize the fainted Sceptile with a Revive and win the battle.

In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga

Regirock, along with the other two Legendary titans, are seen under the possession of Candice. She uses them against Hareta to test his worthiness to challenge Regigigas in A Novel Test!!.

Trivia

• Regirock is tied with Regice for the highest single base stat of any Legendary Pokémon with its 200 Defense. Regice's is its Special Defense.
• In the international versions of Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, there is an unobtainable Regirock Doll programmed into the game. It was unlockable with the Japan-exclusive Regi-Dolls Decoration set e-Reader card.
• Regirock's in-game footprint resembles a Scarabaeus sacer, a real-life insect that was considered sacred by ancient Egyptians.

Origin

Regirock may be based on the golems of Hebrew legend. The legends cast them as servants of higher powers and are said to have writing on their heads. When the writing is removed, the creature would be weakened, or even killed in some legends.

The five Legendary titans may be collectively themed after historical epochs, with Regirock representing the Stone Age.

Name origin

Regirock is a combination of regis (Latin for royal) and rock.
