who could ever compare the suffering of Regigigas?

Shame all that is just behind the scenes, or are you saying all dev notes and scribbles are canon to all games? Also he won ultimately.

>Giants are Canon to the game but never explains
>The leak literally explains in explicit detail who these giants were and how they became plates

It takes a tempered reading in Japanese, but it is common knowledge in Japanese that Regigigas is one of the giants mentioned in the Flame Plate. It just only became consolidated as a concept in English when the teraleak painted the full picture.

>Flame Plate and Earth Plate talk about how the plates are made from the cosmic egg and dead giants
>Who are the giants?
>Regis are called "the legendary giants"
>etymology doc found in the leak explicitly calls the giants a race and uses the same language in explain Regigigas
>Leak explains the Earth and Flame Plate directly in PMyth5.2 "AUSU" stating that cosmic egg broke open, the shell pieces became giants of every type, they attacked Arceus out of "Jungian Fear of Existence after an eternity of non-existence." Arceus kills all of them and makes them into plates except for a normal plate
>Fast forward to Legends Arceus, the plates awaken Regigigas and make him attack you, he knows what they are, dead giants
>Regigigas is holding the long forgotten "Normal Plate"
And then from there, Japanese fandom fills in the gaps from implications that are only legible in the Japanese version relative to the English
>Slow Start is a curse as "slow" and "curse" are a pun
>Regigigas was cursed as being one of the giants that rebelled against Arceus and was forced to carry the continents in his weakened state
>then he tried to remake his brothers out of earthly material
>Arceus then commands humanity to seal up the regis for being too dangerous

Regigigas has say because he was originally made from the same Cosmic Egg as Arceus. What Arceus did to him in response to be forced to exist, killing his kin, cursing him, forcing him to tow the continents, sealing his children, diminishing him to level 1, and locking him away is cruel.

Even Regigigas tried to play by Arceus' game and exist in the material world and make peace with it by making the other regis, Arceus sealed them and Regigigas away.

>>727876317
this, game and story itself are so boring the dev notes and scribbles really paint the world in a more interesting perspective. I'm tired of pokemon being pets with superpowers

Jungian Fear of Existence is a complex thing. Imagine not existing for eternity and then some asshole forces you into existence.

i feel like everything within gen 4, 5 and 6 was gamefreak trying to push the franchise into something more complex that would spark curiosity and fear by demonstrating how deep pokemon can be but TPC forced gamefreak to tone down the environment

I have an idea for Regigigas and Slaking. You create a hold-item for them that makes them "unaffected by attacks during a turn that this pokemon cannot take its turn." They cannot be damaged, cannot be whirlwinded, and can't be hit with status effects. The obvious counterplays is that the opponent is free to switch or setup on these turns (spikes, dragon dance, etc)
>>
>>727890112
Slaking isn't a legendary. He is meant to be shit.
>>
>>727890212
It would be an item that has accidental synergy with Slaking. If you really want to be cute, make it so that item applies after using Hyper Beam as well since any pokemon is unable to attack after using that.

That was Giratina and not canon. Only Pmyth5.2"AUSU" is canon to the games as it explains the canon things in the games
>The Cosmic Egg
>The Giants converted into plates
>Origin of Palkia/Dialga as avatars of Ea and Ia
>The Tree of Life that would become Xernas, Yveltal, and Zygarde
>The Weather Trio
>Dragonite, Gyarados, and Tyranitar being incarnations of winds, waves, and quakes as shown in the Sinjoh Sigil

>>727893616
Regigigas is past his existential crisis. He just wants to create his Giant brothers and live in peace after being beaten by Aus, but Aus wants him to suffer eternally for his rebellion.
