In one of my worlds, I am trying to summon a Giant that will not despawn. I can successfully summon the Giant, and then I name it with a Name Tag so it doesn't despawn. I also do the same thing with several other nearby caged mobs. Then I leave the area, and when I come back all of the mobs are still there except for the Giant. I know Giants are unused mobs, this may be why it despawns. If that's the reason why it is despawning, how can I prevent it?

I do not know why the giant is despawning but the only thing I have to suggest is when you summon him in add the
{PersistenceRequired:1}tag. This should prevent minecraft from despawning it normally.Here is the full command incase you wanted it.
