Rayquaza is an ancient Pokémon living in the earth's ozone layer, and apparently is hundreds of millions years old. It could not be seen from the ground, and it only descended to the top of the Sky Pillar to rest, so its existence was unknown to most of the world. Its flying form has been said to resemble a meteor, which is fitting considering what it consumes. Rayquaza seems to find its nourishment from water and particles in the atmosphere, as well as by consuming meteors that enter the atmosphere. Rayquaza's body contains an organ that is similar to a Mega Stone (dubbed the 'mikado organ' by a [[Devon]] scientist), and any consumed meteors help to fill Rayquaza's body with the energy needed for Mega Evolution.

Rayquaza had descended from the sky in the past to break up battles between [[Groudon]] and [[Kyogre]]. In the backstory of ''Omega Ruby'' and ''Alpha Sapphire'', Rayquaza reacted to a rainbow stone that came from a meteoroid and transformed into Mega Rayquaza to break up the second known battle between Groudon and Kyogre. The two of them were in their primal forms, and Mega Rayquaza's power was said to have drained their primal energy. The Sky Pillar was also said to have been built to house that rainbow stone, and Rayquaza was believed to be connected to the origins of the Mega Evolution phenomenon in general.

Rayquaza had apparently descended from the sky in the past to break up fights between [[Groudon]] and [[Kyogre]]. This leads [[Ruby]] to awaken Rayquaza at the Spear Pillar. Afterwards, Rayquaza flew up and then descended from the clouds, causing Groudon and Kyogre to break up their latest battle.

In ''Pokémon: Emerald Version'', [[Brendan]]/[[May]] awakened Rayquaza when Groudon and Kyogre begin battling again after being awakened by [[Maxie]] and [[Archie]]. Rayquaza was able to break up the fight and then returned to the Sky Pillar. In ''Omega Ruby'' and ''Alpha Sapphire'', Rayquaza was featured in the game's post-game storyline, known as the Delta Episode. [[Zinnia]] wanted to summon Rayquaza and make it become Mega Rayquaza so that it could destroy a meteoroid that was en route to Hoenn. She gathered several Key Stones and summoned Rayquaza to the Sky Pillar, only to find that it had lost its power to Mega Evolve over time. However, it reacted to the power of a meteorite that Brendan/May had. After being testing the trainer's might and being captured by them, Rayquaza was able to transform into Mega Rayquaza and destroyed the meteoroid with Brandan/May riding on its back.

Rayquaza could initially only be captured in ''Ruby'', ''Sapphire'' and ''Emerald''. It could be found on the top of the Sky Pillar after becoming the Pokémon League champion. The difficulty in capturing it came primarily from Rayquaza's use of Rest (which will restore its HP and cure any condition changes) and Outrage (which will deplete some of Raquaza's HP at the same time and may cause it to knock itself out). In ''Omega Ruby'' and ''Alpha Sapphire'', it appeared at the Sky Pillar at the end of the Delta Episode scenario. It had to be captured in order to complete the storyline, and so it could be rechallenged even after being defeated. This version also removed some difficulty from the battle, as it no longer knew Rest or Outrage.

In ''[[Pokémon: HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|HeartGold and SoulSilber]]'', Rayquaza could be found within the Embedded Tower on Route 47  where it is summoned if the player has a Green Orb; the player needs to have already caught both Groudon and Kyogre to get the orb from [[Professor Oak]], so trading between games is required to reach Rayquaza. In ''[[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]]'', it appeared at the Cliff World of the Ultra Space Wilds if the player had both Groudon and Kyogre in their party.

*In the ''[[Portal: Super Smash Bros.|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series, Rayquaza initially appeared as a boss in "The Subspace Emissary", the Adventure mode of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Instead of its natural habitat in the ozone layer, it was found at the bottom of a lake. Rayquaza emerged from the lake in a rage shortly after [[Fox McCloud]]'s [[Arwing]] crashed nearby. It proceeded to fire a Hyper Beam that blew the Arwing apart and grabbed [[Diddy Kong]]. Fox surfaced from the wreckage and rescued Diddy Kong, then used a Reflector to deflect Rayquaza's Hyper Beam. Fox and Diddy then took on and defeated it in a boss battle. Rayquaza could later be battled again in the game's Boss Battles mode.

Rayquaza emerges from the lake in a rage shortly after [[Fox McCloud]]'s [[Arwing]] crashes at the side of the lake, and Rayquaza then fires a Hyper Beam that blows the Arwing apart and grabs [[Diddy Kong]]. However, Fox then emerged from the wreckage and rescued Diddy Kong, then used a Reflector to deflect another Hyper Beam. Fox and Diddy then took on and defeated it in a boss battle. A trophy of Rayquaza can be obtained by using a Trophy Stand on Rayquaza during the battle, and Rayquaza can also be battled in the Boss Battles mode.

**In later games, Rayquaza appeared as part of the Kalos Pokémon League stage that was seen in ''[[Super Smash Bros. for NIntendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. It sometimes appeared when the stage was in the form of the Dragonmark Chamber and flew across the screen, causing damage to anyone who touched it.

**Rayquaza has also been represented by a trophy (gained by using a Trophy Stand to defeat it in a boss fight) and sticker in ''Brawl'', a trophy in the Wii U game and an Ace-rank Primary [[Spirit]] (which also raised jumping ability) in ''Ultimate''. When fought against in a Spirit battle, Rayquaza's Spirit would possess [[Ridley]] in a battle at the Dragonmark Chamber, and the battle would be subjected to heavy winds.

*In the ''Pokémon'' anime, Rayquaza was featured in the seventh movie, where it attacked [[Deoxys]] after it landed in the Arctic for invading on its domain in the sky and eventually vaporized Deoxys with a Hyper Beam.  Deoxys survived, and Rayquaza continued pursuing and battling with it for most of the movie. Rayquaza has made several smaller appearances in other movies and episodes. This included one episode of the Sinnoh series where Raquaza rammed into a rocket that Ash's group was aboard and sent it off course, and another episode where [[Hoopa]] summoned a Shiny Rayquaza that could Mega Evolve in order to aid it in a battle between Legendary Pokémon.

*In the ''Pokémon Adventures'' manga, Rayqauaza was featured in the climax of the ''Ruby''/''Sapphire'' arc, where [[Norman]] brought [[Wally]] to the Sky Pillar and trained him to master Rayquaza. It was show in flashback that Rayquaza had been held captive until Ruby accidentally freed it in a battle with a [[Salamence]], which wound up costing Norman his reputation. Norman and Wally were able to awaken Rayquaza in the present day, and Norman controlled it to stop the battle between Groudon and Kyogre. However, Norman controlled Rayquaza without a proper medium, which caused his death until [[Celebi]] reversed it. Rayquaza then retreated.

=Trivia=
 
  
−
*Its name seems to be a combination of "ray" and "quasar". It may also be derived from Raqiya, the Hebrew word for 'firmament', and its name also contains similarities to Japanese words for "violent or furious", "sky" and "seat or location". As for 'mikado', the name used for its special organ, it is a word that has been used to refer to emperors of Japan and can mean "heavenly sovereign" or "king of the heaven/sky".

*It is the only Pokémon that is capable of Mega Evolving without a separate Mega Stone. Rayquaza only needs to know the move Dragon Ascent in order to Mega Evolve. In-universe, as stated above, it is said that this is because Rayuaza's body contains an organ similar to a Mega Stone known as a mikado organ.
 
−
*After it became Mega Rayquaza and drained Groudon and Kyogre's primal energy, it was dubbed the 'Delta' by a man implied to have been [[AZ]]. It is thus the titular Delta of the Delta Episode, which also complements the titles of the remake games associating Kyogre with Alpha and Groudon with Omega.
