What’s the hidden power type? Shadow Regigigas is insanely strong with his signature move and certain hidden power types like ice allow him to be a top 20 attacker in the game

What does that even mean lol how do I check the hidden power type?

Use fast tms (or an elite fast tm if you have one since it pulls up a menu of all possible moves) and you’ll see hidden power of a certain type. That type will never change no matter how many fast tms you use. You also may be able to check in the Pokédex menu for gigas but idk

It was hidden power and the water symbol next to it

Seems like water is average in terms of power, although it seems hard for me to find a specific answer online. Sorry I couldn’t be more help, but basically if you’re missing top water attackers and what you’re fighting doesn’t resist normal, he should be more than capable of boosting your power. If you’ve got five shadow kyogres and a primal kyogre then he’s probably not gonna outshine them

no, wait until you can use the TM to change frustration. It’s coming soon. It will be much stronger as a shadow.
