    hey guys i was wondering which pokemon you like better well is better, shaymin or regigigas
     
    Regigigas is much too ugly to be a pokemon, but thats not the point.
    shaymin is just a flower pot pokemon, and its limited movepool is bad.
    regigigas has slow start, which makes it much less used, but it has nice stats, and a great movepool.
    i voted for regigigas for battling uses only.
     
    Regi sucks because of slow start and Shaymin is a cutie and beauty runs the world! random
     
    If regi can stall past his slow start, then he is better. But he has a hard time doing that in OU, so the just as sucky shaymin gets my vote.
     
    Regigigas is like slaking in a sense his ability drags him down. when it comes to battling i would go with shaymin.
    but when it comes to my favorite i like Regigigas better.
     
    I voted for Shaymin for its cuteness. I kinda like Regigigas' slow start because it's original/thoughtful, and it actually requires Regigigas users to implement some real strategy. But at the same time, I freakin hate Regigigas because of its ridiculous catch rate. Took me 40 different balls before I caught it. (On the second try, since on the first try he killed himself from FREAKIN STRUGGLE).
     
    Shaymin, by far. Slow Start just hurts Regigigas too much, and Shaymin may have a shallow move pool at the moment, but we also have Sky Forme coming that could help with that (and 80% chance of halving Special Defense with Seed Flare is just too attractive to ignore IMO).
     
    Regigigas is just completely crippled by his ability and is completely unusable in competitive battling. While Shaymin is outclassed by Celebi, she's still REMOTELY usable with her Seed Flare, so she gets my vote.

    Yes, but like it was said before, with slow start, it requires strategy.
    Regigigas is just one of those pokémon that you can only rely on with brute strength.
    Also don't forget that regigigas has a base defense of 110, so it will last a while against most pokémon.when its killed, you have permission to call it regicide.
    shaymin has seed flare, and thats about all its worth.
    Celebi and mew are stronger than shaymin, and have better movepools.
    In my opinion, shaymin is the weakest legendary, and they just killed legendaries when they put in 13 of them in the fourth season.

    No, with Slow Start, it requires waiting for five turns while the opponent gets to set up enough that the high Attack won't matter. Besides, beefing up its defenses means sacrificing some of that Attack stat you're waiting for.

    Mew is Uber right now and Celebi may be more useful in several situations, but that's only one superior compared to the several Legendaries superior to Regigigas.

    Actually, I thought the consensus was that either Articuno or Entei were the weakest.

    I would think technically Phione is the weakest legendary. :P
