I have been noticing alot of bashing on the regis and I have decided to ask why they are disliked so much.

{regirock}
{regice}
{registeel}

My opinion I think they are great, Regirock is on my top 10 favorite pokemon.

Can you tell me why you dislike them?

I don't dislike them. {registeel} is just plain awesome.

Lock-On
Zap Cannon
Metal Claw
??? (Something, I can't remember)

He just kicks butt.

Well I think the reason why many people disliked them, is because they were expecting something better to come in RS, than Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, Entei, Raikou and Suicune. Personally I don't really like them, I dislike most of the RS Pokemon.

What were people expecting though? I think it was a great idea, its something different, I really do hope the next three are ghosts or bugs.

I personally dislike them because they're the dumbest looking legendaries ever invented. Nintendo must have had a SERIOUS block of character designs to make three Pokemon that look like they were made out of kitchen utensils and pass them off as Legendaries. And unlike the previous two Legendary Threesomes, the maligned stats and movepools don't help their cases. Nor does being pure Rock, Ice or Steel-typings.

They're dumb-looking (they look like freakin' Digimon) and don't really have any use outside of Stalling. Seismic Toss helped.

I believe they can be put to good use. Somone show us some good move sets for the trio.

Well {regirock} was made by primitives so that may be one of the problems with them. I like {registeel} the best, because he's one of the best tanks.

There's a standard set guide in FRLG.

I think they look dumb too, no offense to anyone who likes them. These statue-like things are not exactly what most people would say "cool". So that's probably the reason why they are disliked. They can be put to good use, like what Crosman said, but their movepools are kind of limited, which is another point disliked by many.

I think they look just plain dumb. I guess one of the reasons why I dislike them is that there defence stats are higher than there attack stats. :wink:

But that's not the problem since they don't learn too many offensive moves. They are best used as tanks in my opinion.

I don't HATE the Regi's but I don't like em..
I mean, if u use Legends ur almost sure ur gonna win.
If u battle a trainer who doesnt EV and IV trains
On my very first Pokemon game, Pokemon Red, my team was:
Charizard, Mewtwo, Moltres, Zapdos, Articuno and Mew.. :shock:
And I defeated every1 :lol:
That's why I don't like The legends..somethimes there 'to' strong :wink:

I think they look like garbage, I'm kind of emmbaressed when I send him out against my friend, but registeel is a decent tank.

Note that I said 'decent' not 'good'.

They have those stupid-looking shapes, they don't even have faces...They actually look like machines, not monsters. These are the only legendaries I hate (followed by {celebi} and {jirachi}). Yeah, and I also agree that they are really dumb.

regis are ugly robots.
and I hate human-shaped pokemon(like {hitmonchan}) they just look sily. unlike {metang}/{magnemite} they don't look like a monster/"pet" anyone would train. (I can imagine ash hugging a {mewtwo}, but can you imagine him huging a {regice}??)

Here is a Tank set for Registeel:

{registeel} @ Leftovers

Toxic
Rest
Amnesia
Iron Defense

EVs in Defence and Special Defense with any remaining in HP.

I dont hate the Regis, I just dont use them. I caught 'em for my pokedex and then left them in the Boxes.

However, I do like the whole "process" in which you get the Regis (the whole, catch wailord and relicanth, get into sealed chamber etc.).

Sometimes I wonder how people actually figure out where the regis are, and how to unlock them (without looking on a walkthrough or any one telling them).

Overall, Regis arent bad, they just fit into 00ber-only teams.
