A Theory Regarding Regigigas

[starterlover1]

I this is how it is:

Remember that all three regis represent different time periods. They weren't necessarily made by humans. Regice's body is made of ANTARCTIC ICE FROM AND ICE AGE (which humans are NOT capable of making themselves). I got that from a pokedex entry. Now, here is the big part to my idea: They were all together on one landmass at first. BUT. When Pangea split, regigagas went one way, and the other three regis went another. Thus the difference in region.

 

[duffy]

i think the regis were just sealed away because they were dangerous or something n i dont htink they were made by humans atall

The whole point of sealment in the North is to stop any attempt at a rampage.

Did metal exist before humans? Yes. They could have put the regi's 'eyes' in a chunk of natural metal to see what happens. Humans are curious in nature.

Deoxys is probably natural on it's home planet.

Okay, but how do they put 'eyes' in metal, are they eyes and do the patterns they form mean anything (I heard that they were martial arts formations)

Deoxys was muted when it got exposed to a laser, therefore it's unnatural. (I thought all Pokemon came from a different planet)

Regice: Ice Age
Regirock: Stone Age
Registeel: Iron Age

Regigigas: Pangea split

When Regigas was sealed by Aruseus, cause it's sealing time was at pangea, (no humans see). In it's last rage, it split the continents & sent the apart.

Cool theory ay?

But the Regis aren't violent Pokemon, people just feared their power.

Besides, Regigas can't just move land masses, it needs to pull them, according to the legend about it.

[Cenodoxus]

Wow, I didn`t think this would get many replies at all. oo;;

Anyways. It seems to be that Regigigas is one of the most powerful Pokèmon in existence. Assuming that it is manmade, as the other three golems are, this Pokèmon would need to have been made out of something extraordinarily powerful. I`d say there`s three options here:

1) A space meteor that came into contact with the planet`s natural elements.
2) A fragment of the life-making essence that is Aruseus, crafted by humans.
3) A human-made combination of several elements found in nature, perhaps combined with some kind of mystical stone, to create Regigigas.

Now, regarding the whole debate over this Pokèmon moving a continent, you are forgetting the context in which the Pokèdex puts it: "A legend has been passed down". An oral legend of old times, probably. In such tall tales, the contents are usually changed every time a person tells the story, ending in a warped version of the original. "...that this POKèMON moved a continent by pulling it with a rope" could simply mean that Regigigas is very strong and very old, and probably has some connection to the higher beings of Pokèmon (Aruseus, Diaruga, Parukia, the Fairy Trio), who it served by shaping the tectonic plates of the world in a distant past.

It is plausible that ancient humans, marveled with this Pokèmon`s power, used part of whatever-it-is-made-of and used them with the common elements of Ice, Rock and Steel to create three lesser, yet still very powerful servants for their own use. And yet, these Pokèmon were even more powerful than they expected, and humans, as is in their nature, became afraid of what they couldn`t control. They quickly used their own Pokèmon to seal their once faithful servants away, and then went straight to the source--Regigigas, who with much trouble they put to sleep as well. The reason why it is in another region could be because the lesser Regis were transported to serve the humans of Hoenn, the continental divide separated a once great landmass into Hoenn and Sinnoh, or they had to seal it in another place to stop it from interfering with the spells cast on the other, weaker golems. Remember that the Regis are inherently pacific, so they could have easily been lured to their own tombs. This is also why Regigigas has the Slow Start ability--it has been sealed for eons, and anyone would be a bit sluggish after that.

...Yeah.

 

[Shiny Venusaur]

Maybe regigigas was created at a time where nothing existed yet and everything is about to start, so it was a noraml type. But as time grew so did it transforming and mutating as does the world did too. Regigas came in contact with a lot of things form ice to lava.

thats sounds like a good theory

In deed.
Allso when i refer to the ancinets you people instantly think I mean humans not nesecerly a race before the ice age

 

[king of blue]

Regigigas was created by Anchent, who was the trainer of Aresus, to look over the land, which was Pangea at the time, so Regigigas made 3 lesser beings to help. He then made the continent split as he was making the regis. As he saw the continents he made more regis, 3 for each continent except the one he was on. After this all happend he had a fight with Aresus, so aresus sealed him away and decided to look over the lands himself. Because the battle tiered him so, he forever more was sluggish, which is why he has slow start. Anybody like it?

 

[duffy]

me, i totally agree with you a billion percent it makes sense

 

[4 8 15 16 23 42]

What does Relicanth and Wailord have anything to do with it?

 

[Tochukaso]

that would make it to strong and notcie even the regi king will be powened by a fighting type

Yes... ALL of the Regi's are vulnerable to fighting types.

Here is my theory. The Regi's represent the natural world. And who better to destroy the natural world, than man? Fighting-Human. Notice the fist. Only humans and monkeys have fists.

That kinda makes sense, but o well.

 

[duffy]

What does Relicanth and Wailord have anything to do with it?

i think who ever sealed them which is more than one being because it says we sealed... must have thought relecanth and wailord were rare threrfore making the chamber harder to get into ;490;

I think what you and a lot of other poeple do is belittle the ancient humans waaaaaay too much, as if they were just marvelled by every single strogn pokemon. WELL I HAVE NEWS FOR YOU , THEY WERE NOT. Ancient humans already tried to controle groudon and kyogre cause they created the orbs. Ancient humans made a time machine and used the spinning of a baltoy to power it and make it work. So the ancient humans arent stupid and there legends have a base. They used magic and lots of other stuff that modern humands in the pokemon world cant even begin to understand let alone pass judgement on!
The Regii's are man-made ,just deal with it.

Where did you hear that they made a time machine?

I like Cenodoxus' theory on part that the lesser Regi, assuming they were man-made, were made from something extraordinary.

http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-rs/379.shtml ;379;
REGISTEEL has a body that is harder than any kind of metal. Its body is apparently hollow. No one has any idea what this POKéMON eats.
REGISTEEL was imprisoned by people in ancient times. The metal composing its body is thought to be a curious substance that is not of this earth. Its body is harder than any other kind of metal. The body metal is composed of a mysterious substance. Not only is it hard, it shrinks and stretches flexibly. It is sturdier than any kind of metal. It hardened due to pressure underground over tens of thousands of years.

http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-rs/378.shtml ;378;
REGICE's body was made during an ice age. The deep-frozen body can't be melted, even by fire. Research revealed that its body is made of the same kind of ice that is found at the South Pole.

http://www.serebii.net/pokedex-rs/377.shtml ;377;
REGIROCK was sealed away by people long ago. If this POKéMON's body is damaged in battle, it is said to seek out suitable rocks on its own to repair itself. REGIROCK's body is composed entirely of rocks. Recently, a study made the startling discovery that the rocks were all unearthed from different locations. It is entirely composed of rocks with no sign of a brain or heart. It is a mystery even to modern scientists.

---

Its interesting that Regirock's dex imply that it was made during when certain now-seperated continents were still unsplit. Regice's dex states that its body's composition was formed during an ice age. (However many ice ages there are in the game's history.) Registeel's was the most interesting to me, in that it states its composition could be something out of this planet, perhaps a meteorite of some sort like Cenodoxus said. All in all the Pokedex entries mostly just hint on their ages, where continents were still rapidly seperating (Maybe Kyogre and Groudon were still active during these eras?), and sentient humans apparently existed. The entries all also point that the Regi do not have internal organs of any sort, so their sentience must have been granted through other means. (The braille-like markings on their body maybe?)

The braille in the first Regi related cave reads (Copy-pasted from a FAQ):

IN THIS CAVE WE HAVE LIVED. WE OWE ALL TO THE POKEMON.
BUT, WE SEALED THE POKEMON AWAY. WE FEARED IT.
THOSE WITH COURAGE, THOSE WITH HOPE. OPEN A DOOR. AN ETERNAL POKEMON WAITS.

---

I'm not sure what Regigigas' entry states since I haven't caught it, but I have a feeling it wasn't necessarily man-made. I think it might have just been made to serve to help shape the continents in the past. It might have been around as old as Kyogre and Groudon, since those two seem to have had similar purposes. Also, on an unrelated note, are the dex entries' information on their height and weight canon? Seems a little hard to believe that Regigas was a mere 12' tall, and Groudon an even shorter 11'.

 

[4 8 15 16 23 42]

1. Is "IN THIS CAVE WE HAVE LIVED. WE OWE ALL TO THE POKEMON.
BUT, WE SEALED THE POKEMON AWAY. WE FEARED IT.
THOSE WITH COURAGE, THOSE WITH HOPE. OPEN A DOOR. AN ETERNAL POKEMON WAITS." being spoken by the regis, relicanth/wailord or the ancients?

2. It says "WE FEARED IT" since it isn't using plurals they could be talking about one, probably Regigigas.

3. If they are Man-Made what are their purposes?
