8. Regigigas

Regigigas is one of the few legendary normal type Pokemon to appear on this list. It can only come to life when the other 3 Regi Pokemon are present in a player’s party.

Porygon Z has tremendous power and has the highest special attack stats compared to the other normal type Pokemon. Even though it’s a bit unstable, it has plenty of useful moves that players can exploit. Moreover, it has an adaptability power that enables it to double the power of a move in battle.
