Rayquaza: Difference between revisions

Rayquaza is a dual {{iw|Bulbapedia|Dragon|type}}/{{iw|Bulbapedia|Flying|type}}-type legendary Pokémon that debuted in the third generation of ''Pokémon'' games, serving as the version mascot for ''{{s|bulbapedia|Pokémon Emerald}}'', the solitary third version of ''{{iw|bulbapedia|Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire}}'' and fifth main series game in {{iw|bulbapedia|Generation III}} overall, and is categorized within the Pokédex at #384 as the "Sky High Pokémon".  A green, serpentine creature, it is part of a trio of legendary Pokémon commonly referred to as the {{iw|bulbapedia|weather trio}} along with [[Groudon]] and [[Kyogre]], and in its games is able to mediate the fights between those two. It is considered very territorial and usually flies around in the ozone layer.

Rayquaza first appeared in ''Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire'' as a legendary Pokémon residing in Sky Pillar. However, it did not have much of a role in these games. In ''Pokémon Emerald'', Rayquaza is the mascot and served a much bigger role, becoming the one who stops the fight between [[Kyogre]] and [[Groudon]]. It also stays in Sky Pillar once the conflict is finished and can be obtained much earlier. Rayquaza later returned in the remakes, ''{{s|bulbapedia|Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}'', playing a major role in the post-game and also capable of Mega Evolution, which can be accessed by the move Dragon Ascent.
