Rayquaza possesses some of the strongest attack power out of any Pokémon; it can easily summon cyclones to overwhelm its opponents. [[Dragon Ascent (move)|It can soar into the sky]] and droop out into its foes at high speeds. Thanks to its weather-manipulation powers, [[Air Lock (Ability)|it can eliminate weather effects]]. Rayquaza was worshiped by the [[Draconid people]] along with the people of [[Hoenn]] as the savior of the region. Thus, they built the [[Sky Pillar]] to honor it. In the manga, the Draconids referred to it as their "'''Dragon Lord'''". It is one of the longest-lived Pokémon species. Rayquaza loves [[Rayquaza Treat]]s made by [[Snacksworth]], who once encountered it in the past. Inside Rayquaza's body lies an organ that contains the same power as a [[Mega Stone]]. A [[Devon Corporation]] scientist named this organ the '''mikado organ''' (Japanese: '''ミカド{{tt|器官|きかん}}'''). By consuming meteoroids as it flies through the stratosphere, the organ will be filled with enough energy to enable Rayquaza's Mega Evolution.

Rayquaza is bitter enemies with {{p|Deoxys}}, with the two often clashing with each other, as depicted in the movie ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'' and the games [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire|Omega Ruby, Alpha Sapphire]] and [[Pokémon Masters EX|Masters EX]].

As Mega Rayquaza, its body becomes longer and gains more features. Its head becomes longer with the {{tt|Δ|Delta}} symbol appearing on its forehead. Rayquaza's eyes now contain yellow pupils with red irises, and black, {{wp|shichishito}}-shaped markings trail behind its eyes. Its red lips and teeth become gold, and the gold lines connect to those on its lower horns, which take on a broad, triangular shape. At the outer edges of its lower horns are long, golden, glowing tendrils that each extend to a green, fin-like structure; these tendrils have ring patterns that strongly resemble the yellow markings running along the length of Rayquaza's normal form. While in flight, these tendrils give Mega Rayquaza a {{tt|Δ|Delta}}-shaped profile. Its two upper horns become longer with a gold line running over them in a V shape, and each upper horn has another glowing tendril that ends in a circular shape with a spike. Along the length of its body are golden, glowing orbs placed where its ring patterns used to be. The chin, part of the neck, and parts of its serpentine body are changed to the color black. The fins running along its body are now marked with gold lines; the fins on its tail become entirely yellow and substantially longer. Particles stream from the long tendrils that extend from its jutting jaw; these particles can control the density and humidity of the air, allowing Mega Rayquaza to manipulate the weather. Its green hide sparkles with an emerald-like quality.<ref name="Mega">https://web.archive.org/web/20150202050239/http://www.pokemonrubysapphire.com/en-us/pokemon/legendary-pokemon/mega-rayquaza</ref>

Mega Rayquaza was said to have been born from humanity's wish for salvation, channeled through the Key Stone of a Draconid Lorekeeper. Rayquaza is the first recorded Pokémon to achieve [[Mega Evolution]] and is at its full power when in the Mega Evolved state. Thanks to its weather-manipulating powers, [[Delta Stream (Ability)|it can change the weather]] to eliminate all of the [[Flying (type)|Flying]] [[type]]'s weaknesses. As seen in ''[[XYS02|Mega Evolution Special II]]'', Rayquaza can Mega Evolve even without a [[Key Stone]]. Mega Rayquaza has the power to undo the [[Primal Reversion|primal forms]] of {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}}. It is capable of destroying meteors bigger than itself as seen with the [[Grand Meteor Delta]].
