    Regi MiniQuest (1): Unlocking the Regi's:
    _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

    What you need: A Pokemon with Dig, Dive, Surf, Relicanth ((explained above))
    first in your Party, and Wailord, found on Route 129, last.


    First, Fly to Pacifidlog Town. Go to the bottom, and Surf south.
    When you reach The Ocean Current, stay to the bottom. Soon you will
    reach a small island with a blackbelt on it. Go strait across. This
    will take you to a small island with a circle of water in it. Go to
    the southernmost part,and Surf again. You will end up in a small area
    with two swimmers in it. Battle them if you want, and Surf out.
    It doesn't matter where as long as you end up on the island. Go to
    the western edge just below the rock, and Surf DOWN. When you end
    up on the little island,cross it, go ONE STEP DOWN, and surf. You MUST
    surf in the EXACT square. Finally! All the surfing is done! Now, you
    will reach a tiny spot with a place you can dive. Dive down. Exit.
    Keep going until you reach a rock with tiny white markings on it. Dive up.

    You will resurface in a place called the Sealed Chamber. The braille alphabet
    in inscribed on the stones. In the back of the room there are
    markings on the wall. Normally you would have to use the stones to
    decode the message, but I'll be nice enough to just tell you the message. ^_~
    It says, "Dig here." You should know what to do. An entrance will appear. Of
    course, go through it. In this room are more rocks with braille on them! x_x
    In order, here is what they say:

    Row One, Left Rock - "Those With Courage, Those With Hope."
    Row One, Right Rock - "Open A Door. An Eternal Pokemon Awaits."
    Row Two, Left Rock - "But, We Sealed The Pokemon Away."
    Row Two, Right Rock - "We Feared It."
    Row Three, Left Rock - "In This Cave We Have Lived."
    Row Three, Right Rock - "We Owe All To The Pokemon."
    ((Note: I'm not sure if they're in the right order.))

    In the back of this Room, there is yet another rock with Braille! x_x
    It says, "First Comes Relicanth. Last Comes Wailord." You must have
    Them in that order, and then press A on the rock. You will hear an earthquake,
    and what apparently sounds like three doors opening. The Regi doors are now unlocked!
    Go take a rest pal, you deserve it. When you get back, it's on to part 2 of
    the Regi quest!

    Regis 2: Catching the Regi's:
    _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
    ((Note: You do not have to do them in this order.))

    Supplies for your 'grand quest': Pokemon with Strength, Pokemon with Surf,
    Pokemon with Fly, At least 30 Great/Ultra Balls, a few Potions, and a bit of patience.


    Regice:

    First, heal your Pokemon for the battle ahead. Then, Fly to Dewford Town. Surf
    north from the island, then west to a little island with a hiker and trees on
    it. You will see an Island oh-so-fancilly surrounded in rocks, with a little cave
    on it. Land there, and go inside. The braille on the wall translates to:
    "Stop and wait. Wait for time to pass twice." All you have to do is wait, roughly
    two minutes. After you wait a while, a door will open. Regice is inside, with
    Superpower, Icy Wind, Curse, and Ancientpower. You should slowly bring it's health
    down to 1 hp. Use a Pokemon with good defense and a weak move. You may want to
    put it to sleep, but it won't sleep for long, so chuck Great Balls as fast as
    you can, and when you have about 20 left, use Ultra Balls.


    Regirock:

    Heal your Pokemon from the tough battle with Regice. Now, Fly to Mauville.
    Head into the desert, and go south. You will reach yet another fancy
    rock formation.Go inside the small cave in the center. At the back of the room, the
    notorious braille will say: "Right, right, down, down. Then, use strength."
    You know what to do. Very carefully, take exactly two steps right from your
    current postion,((reading the braille))and Two steps down. Do not move a step,
    and use Strength. The door to Regirock will open behind you. Use the same
    strategy you did with Regice, restricting your Ball usage, and save 10 each
    for Registeel. Regirock has similar moves as Regice, with Rock Throw instead
    of Icy Wind.


    Registeel:

    Don't forget to heal your Pokemon! Once you have healed, Fly to Lilycove city.
    Go west on to Route 120. Go up the first steps you see, and go through thick
    grass. Go up the next stairs, and you will see the cave of Registeel. Go inside.
    The braille message at the back of the chamber says,
    "With new time, hope and lov, aim to the sky in the middle." Take a Pokemon that
    likes you, and knows Fly, and use Fly in the center of the room. You do not go
    anywhere, but in the back, a door will open, leading into Registeel's room.
    It has The same moves ans all of the above, But instead of Icy Wind or Rock Throw,
    It has Metal Claw. You may have wanted to buy a few more Balls for this,
    you should have had only 10 remaining. But don't worry. The Regi's are a
    great addition to your Team, even if they do look really freaky...0_o


    ...Ta-da! You Regi Quest is complete!

    nice guide, nust a little addition. After you beat the elite 4, check the TV for news reports when Skitty are in season. WHen you see this report, go to route 116, and Skitty are more common then
     
    Err... the FAQ isn't there for nothing. I'll happilly add some of your info to the FAQ, but apart from that, it's just repetition of things already said. And because of this, it shall have to be closed. Sorry. :/

    Case closed
