It is known as the Sky High Pokémon and is the master of the weather trio, which includes Kyogre and Groudon. Rayquaza resides high above the ozone layer, only descending to quell conflicts between its aquatic and terrestrial counterparts. Its sleek, serpentine body, often depicted in a vibrant green, allows for swift and agile movement through the atmosphere. In the games, Rayquaza is a powerful force, often a key element in the narrative, particularly in Pokémon Emerald where its Mega Evolution plays a pivotal role. The anime features several prominent Rayquaza appearances, cementing its status as a majestic and formidable creature. Its cultural significance extends beyond the games and anime, appearing in various merchandise, fan art, and even scientific discussions about atmospheric phenomena due to its unique habitat. Rayquaza does not evolve from or into any other Pokémon, though it can undergo Mega Evolution, a temporary power-up. As a Dragon/Flying type, it has a complex type matchup, being weak to Rock, Dragon, and Fairy, while resisting Fighting, Bug, Fire, Water, and Grass, and being immune to Ground attacks.
