It | + | Rayquaza is an ancient Pokémon living in the earth's ozone layer, and apparently is hundreds of millions years old. It cannot be seen from the ground, and only descends to the peak of the Spear Pillar to rest, so its existence was unknown to most of the world. Rayquaza seems to find its nourishment from water and particles in the atmosphere. Its flying form has been said to look like a meteor. |
− | 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 | + | Rayquaza had descended from the sky in the past to break up battles between [[Groudon]] and [[Kyogre]].

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. | In ''Pokémon: Emerald Version'', [[Brendan]]/[[May]] awakened Rayquaza when Groudon and Kyogre begin battling again after being awakened by [[Maxie]] and [[Archie]].

It is found on the roof of the Sky Pillar after becoming the Pokémon League champion. The difficulty in capturing it comes 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. |
− | 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: 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. |

Rayquaza appears in ''[[Pokémon Trozei!]]'', where it is found in Mr. Who's Den. In ''[[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]]'', Rayquaza is featured on the third bonus field after either Groudon or Kyogre had been caught. In ''[[Pokémon Ranger]]'', Rayquaza can only be caught in the third post-credits bonus mission, found atop Fiore Temple. Rayquaza appears as the final boss of ''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red and Blue Rescue Teams]]''. It appears on the clouds atop the Sky Tower. The Pokémon group travels there to get Rayquaza to help them stop a falling meteor, but Rayquaza is angry at the surface dwellers for breaking the laws of nature and coming up to the sky, which claiming it was his own domain. After being defeated, the Pokémon point out the flying meteor to Rayquaza, whom uses a Hyper Beam to blow it apart after warning the others of its danger. After the ending, Rayquaza could be revisited and recruited into the group. | Rayquaza appears in ''[[Pokémon Trozei!]]'', where it is found in Mr. Who's Den.

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. |
*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. | *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.
