Regirock(JP) is a species of Pokémon in the series of the same name. It is a Rock legendary Pokémon that made its first appearance in the third generation games Ruby and Sapphire. It is a part of the Legendary giants with Regice, Registeel, Regigigas, Regidrago and Regieleki.

Physiology and Behavior[]

Regirock is a large golem-like Pokémon made of brown and orange rocks and it has a pattern of seven orange dots on its face that resembles a capital letter "H". It has long arms with jutting shoulders and club-like hands without fingers. There is a line of orange rocky spines running down its back and its legs are short in comparison to its body. 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. Recently, cutting edge technology has found that Regirock is entirely made of stone and rock as it does not seem to have a heart or brain. It generally lives in caves or ruins as it was sealed away years ago by ancient people.
