Double/Triple Battle Sun Sweeper
Regigigas @ LeftoversAbility: Slow StartEVs: 200 HP / 252 Atk / 56 SpeAdamant Nature (+Atk, -SpA)- Fire Punch- Earthquake- Rock Slide- Frustration / Retaliate
Team up with Leavanny. Use Entrainment. Regigagas now has Chlorophyll. You can then set up Sunny Day with Leavanny or have had a previous Pokemon such as the great Whimsicott do it before. Regi is incredibly powerful, incredibly bulky, and now is Ninjask level fast. It can also hit multiple foes with Rock Slide and Earthquake. Fire Punch is coverage that gets boosted by Sun. Frustration is STAB, although Retaliate can be used since Leavanny won’t last long.

• Protect• Substitute• Knock Off• Crush Grip
Turn 1: Protect. Turn 2: Let them hit you and use Substitute. Turn 3: Protect. Turn 4: Use Knock Off or Crush Grip while they break your sub. Turn 5: Protect. Now slow start is over. Crush Grip is strong STAB that works when they are at high HP so you can OHKO, and Knock Off is coverage that gets rid of their item.
Gen 8
Well, you’ve got Slow Start. Might as well make use of it? Regigigas still has 210 Atk with this set. Not terrible. There aren’t any EVs in Speed because then Avalanche will still work most of the time.

Partner
Weezing @ Sitrus BerryAbility: Neutralizing GasEV spread: 252 HP / 8 Def / 248 SpDCalm Nature
Simple. Bring out Weezing and Regigigas together. Gigas Impact is used over Body Slam because it’s stronger when Dynamaxed. Superpower for an Attack boost in Dynamax, Knock Off to hit ghosts and remove their item. High Horsepower over Earthquake because its a single-target move that doesn’t hit your ally. Also there’s a nearly nonexistent 5 BP difference between the two moves.
Gimmicky set for triple battles only:

Body Slam is STAB that has a 30% to paralyze. Knock Off is to deal with ghost types and removes items from opposing Pokemon. Substitute is for scouting. Protect is to help bypass the turns of Slow Start.

It’s not a bad idea to use Regigigas in a double battle alongsideIron fistPangoro, then have Pangoro useentrainmentto really give thecolossalPokemon an ability it can be proud of!
Iron fistboosts punching attacks by 20%, since Regigigas has access to quite a few of these in ORAS it can be very useful indeed!

Regigigas has arguably the worst ability in the game. Let’s see how we can get around that.
Regikickas@Weakness policy252 Atk 252 Speed 4 DefJolly/Adamant
EndureEarthquakeEndeavourZen headbutt
Endure helps keep him alive and supercharges Endeavour, Earthquake is to deal with rock and steel types who resist Endeavour, Zen headbutt covers his only weakness and weakness policy nearly negates his ability. Baton passed stat boosts could really help. And wish.
I didn’t see any sets here that I liked, So I made my own:Regigigas @Life OrbAdamant Nature252 Atk 200 HP 56 SpeTrait: Slow StartDrain Punch ( Stab, Steal some HP )Knock off ( Knock off the opponents item, so no life orb leftovers, assult vest, etc. )Ice punch ( Stab, Tame those Dragons! )Block/Rock Polish ( Block so the opponent cannot switch out, or Rock Polish to boost speed and Accuracy )
Hope I helped! :D
