I did in fact catch him, but for the Pokedex, nothing more. I did use him from time to time in later days, but never really. I would say Slow Start stopped me from using him, but the thing is, nothing did. I went through all that work, for another Pokedex entry.

I've never ever caught Regigigas. It was always so damn difficult to obtain as it involves getting all three Regis in one game. Plus, I didn't have WiFi connection for my DS/emulator and an Emerald cartridge to even begin with, so capturing it is near impossible for me. All I could ever do was interact with its statue form in Snowpoint City.

I catched him but then never used him because he didnt made my team any better and also his ability is for a Slow paced fighting style and I like to battle fast.

Yes, but it's so annoying to get.

Regigigigigigigigigigigigigigigas is level 1 which means you need False Swipe to get it. Regigigigigigigigigigigigigigigas has a catch rate of 3, which means you'll need a lot of Ultra/Dusk Balls to catch it. To get Regigigigigigigigigigigigigigigas you need to have Regirock, Regice and Registeel, which can only be obtained by trading or capturing them in some areas that you can only access through an event.

This is why many people don't even bother capturing Regigigigigigigigigigigigigigigas. And it's my least favorite Pokemon, tbh. What it is supposed to be?

Slow Start makes Regigigas completely worthless, even with its humongous stats, So I didn't even bother to catch it. If I ever go for a complete Pokedex, Regigigas will always be near or at the bottom of the list.

According to Bulbapedia, using Worry Seed, Gastro Acid or Skill Swap on Regigigas will immediately return its stats to full power on the first turn.
So if you do Double battles, you could probably send in Regigigas + a Pokémon eith Worry Seed/Gastro Acid (Skill Swap will apply the effects of Slow Start to the Skill Swapper), remove Slow Start on the first turn (Regigias will probably be slower), allowing you to use its full potential on the first turn.
