Regigigas is a Pokémon that legend states created the island of Hisui by pulling landmasses together. It is also said that it created the three legendary giants Regirock, Regice and Registeel.
Now, a local tube rental place out in Canada has decided a fourth legendary giant needs to exist in the form of Regitube.
In a funny TikTok video from The Tube Shack, one of the employees dons a suit of tubes in an attempt to form some sort of Optimus Prime tube bot. However, the community immediately jumped onto the video and mentioned how similar the character actually looked to the three legendary giants and the big boss, Regigigas.

Colloquially dubbed Regitube, the Pokémon community has gone all out in putting the meme-born Pokémon into all sorts of artworks and even got itself modded into one of the Pokémon games.
Fans have gone so far as even to create lore and stats for the not-yet-official Pokémon.
Here’s some lore-accurate stats for Regitube. The tubes would provide terrible physical attack and defense, but excellent special attributes. Meanwhile, the tubes may be fragile, but the sheer amount of them would allow for lots of HP (similar to Wailord and Drftblim). pic.twitter.com/SCZRzXhlr3

Amassing over 30 million combined views across the four “Regitube” videos over on TikTok, there may or may not be a chance that Nintendo will add this new giant to its Pokédex once it’s done with its biker phase.
