While it is relatively easy to get Regigigas in Diamond and Pearl, things are a little more complicated in Platinum. You'll need to either transfer the three Golems from an Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald to access Regigigas, or cheat to get a special Regigigas and then capture the three Golems in Platinum.

Transferring from Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald

  1. The only way to get Regigigas in Platinum is to have the three Golems (Regice, Regirock, and Registeel). These cannot be caught in Platinum without a special event Regigigas, so you'll need to transfer the three Golems from Emerald, Ruby, or Sapphire, where they're much easier to obtain. See Catch the 3 Regis in Pokémon Sapphire or Ruby for instructions on getting the three Golems.
    • There are essentially two scenarios for obtaining the three Golems and Regigigas in Platinum. The common way is to transfer the three Golems from Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald, then capture Regigigas in Platinum. The other way involves using a special event Regigigas in Platinum to obtain the three Golems without Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald. Since the event is over, this is no longer possible without cheating.
    • If you don't have access to Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald, see the next section for cheating instructions. This is the only other way to get all three Golems and Regigigas in Platinum.
  2. Once you have the three Golems in your Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald game, you can transfer them to your Platinum game. This will allow you to find the Regigigas in Platinum, which only becomes available when you have the three Golems. [1]
    • You'll need to have completed the National Pokedex in Platinum to access Pal Park. This means seeing every Sinnoh-region Pokemon.
    • Insert your Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald cartridge in the GBA slot of the DS system, then start Platinum and select "Migrate from Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald."
    • Select the six Pokémon you want to transfer, including the three Golems. You must select exactly six Pokémon when using Pal Park to move Pokémon from one game to the other.

  3. You'll find the Pal Park facility off Route 221. You can get there the quickest by flying to Sandgem Town, surfing to Route 219, going south to Route 220, then northeast to 221.
  4. You'll need to talk to the person at the front counter to start it. You'll need to have completed your Sinnoh National Pokedex to start the Catching Show.
  5. You'll only encounter the six Pokémon that you transferred earlier.
  6. Each Park Ball will capture the Pokémon you encounter. Repeat this until you've captured all six Pokémon that you transferred, including the three Golems.
  7. You'll need all three in your active party in order to get Regigigas.
  8. You'll find the entrance to this temple in Snowpoint City. Like Pal Park, you'll need to have completed the National Pokedex in order to enter the temple.
  9. You'll need to get down to B5F, which is the sixth floor of the temple. You'll encounter a lot of Rock Pokémon with levels ranging from 47-56.
  10. You only get one chance at Regigigas, so you'll want to save before the battle just in case. This will allow you to restart if you accidentally knock it out.
  11. Regigigas will only be level 1, so make sure you don't attack it with anything that will knock it out.
  12. Despite the fact that it is level 1, the Regigigas still has a very low catch rate. This means you'll need to lower its health and give it a status effect before trying to catch it with anything other than a Master Ball.
  13. Once you've lowered Regigigas' health, you can use a status effect to help capture it.
  14. These Poke Balls will give you the best chance to catch the Regigigas.

Cheating

  1. If you want to cheat to get the Fateful Encounter Regigigas that was given away at Toys R' Us during the promotion, you'll need to use an emulator or use a physical Action Replay. Using an emulator is much easier, especially if you're already playing a ROM instead of the actual game.
  2. The code will replace the first Pokémon in your party with the Fateful Encounter Regigigas. Make sure it's a Pokémon that you don't care about, because it will be gone forever.
  3. The process for this varies depending on the emulator, but it's generally similar. If you're using VBA-M, click "Tools" → "Cheats" → "List cheats."
  4. This will let you revert your game in case the cheat gives you a Bad Egg, which is possible. A Bad Egg will corrupt your game.
    • You can create save states from the File menu of most emulators. In VBA-M, click "File" and select "Save State." Choose a slot to create the save state.
  5. In the Cheats menu, click the "New Cheat" button and paste the following code. Make sure to select "Action Replay" or "Generic Code" if given the option (some emulators will auto-detect code types): [2]

  6. This will activate the code and place Regigigas at the head of your current party.
  7. Now that you have Regigigas in your party, you can access the special areas for the three Golems. You'll find Regice's area, called the Iceberg Ruins, in Mt. Coronet. The entrance is near the Route 216 exit.
  8. Step on the pressure plates to activate Regice and begin the battle. Regice is level 30. Use moves like False Swipe to lower its health, then use Ultra Balls to capture it.
  9. This area hold Regirock. Enter the cave in the middle of the Route to find it.
  10. Like Regice, Regirock is level 30. Start the battle by walking over all of the plates on the floor. Lower its health and then capture it with an Ultra Ball.
  11. The last of the Golems, Registeel, can be found in a special cave here called the Iron Ruins. You'll fid the cave in the entrance area of the interior of the island.
  12. Walk over the plates to start the fight. Registeel is level 30, like the other Golems you've captured so far. Once its health is low, use Ultra Balls to try to capture it. [3]

    All legendary Pokémon have the exact same shiny rate as normal Pokémon, which is very rare.
