Trivia

  • Rayquaza's artwork for Ultimate resembles its artwork for Pokémon OmegaRuby/AlphaSapphire, albeit with its hands and legs posed slightly differently.

  • Rayquaza is the only DLC veteran who was playable in the E3 demo.
  • Rayquaza was the last non-DLC character added to the Super Smash Bros. Blog.
    • However, due to Mr. Game & Watch's blog page only being available on the Asian websites until December 7, Mr. Game & Watch was the last character added to the blog on non-Asian websites.
