Regigigas
Normal
Best attacking moveset: Hidden Power and Crush Grip, worth 20.7 damage per second against a neutral target.
Best moveset
Regigigas can learn 8 combinations. Hidden Power with Crush Grip does the most damage per second of them, at level 40 with a perfect attack stat. Same-type moves get the 1.2× bonus, and the cycle assumes the charged attack fires the moment it has the energy.
That set is legacy. Crush Grip is only obtainable with an Elite TM or from the event that gave it out, so the Regigigas you catch today cannot learn it. The best set it can learn now is Hidden Power and Giga Impact, worth 16.6 damage per second.
Stats and moves come straight from the game's own data files. Every number on this page is a raid and gym number, not a PvP one.
