===Generations VI and VII===
Dragon Ascent inflicts damage and then lowers the user's {{stat|Defense}} stat and {{stat|Special Defense}} stat by one stage each.
Dragon Ascent inflicts damage and then lowers the user's {{stat|Defense}} stat and {{stat|Special Defense}} stat by one stage each.
===Generation VIII onwards===
In Versions 1.0 to 1.2.1 of {{g|Sword and Shield}}, Dragon Ascent could not be selected in a battle. Starting with Version 1.3.0, it is usable and functions the same as it did in the previous generation.


===Other effects===
===Other effects===
The player can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] any Rayquaza that knows Dragon Ascent, as long as the Rayquaza in the [[Delta Episode]] has been caught.
====Generations VI and VII====
The player can [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolve]] any Rayquaza that knows Dragon Ascent. Rayquaza cannot Mega Evolve if it is [[Held item|holding]] a [[Z-Crystal]] or knows the move only through {{m|Mimic}}. In {{g|Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire}}, no Rayquaza can Mega Evolve until the Rayquaza in the [[Delta Episode]] has been caught.


Dragon Ascent does not exist in the game data of {{g|X and Y}}. As a result, a Pokémon knowing Dragon Ascent cannot be traded from Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire to Pokémon X and Y, and if a Pokémon in [[Pokémon Bank]] knows the move it cannot be withdrawn in Pokémon X and Y. In order to be transferred to Pokémon X and Y, the Pokémon must forget Dragon Ascent.

Notes:
* {{sync|Steven|Rayquaza|Anniversary 2021}}'s passive {{mas|skill}} {{sk|Downside Up}} makes Dragon Ascent boost their Defense and Sp. Def by one stat rank after use, instead of lowering them.
* {{sync|Zinnia|Rayquaza}}'s power boost is only accessible through the [[villain event]] [[Team Aqua's Stormy Seas]].

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* The Japanese name of this move literally means "to paint a dragon and dot its eyes" and serves as a metaphor for the finishing touch in a piece of work that give it "the spark of life". The idiom originated from a legend where {{wp|Zhang Sengyou}}, a Chinese painter, completes the dragons on a mural by dotting their eyes and thus literally bringing them to life; they spring out of the temple wall and fly off. The completed dragons immediately ascended to the heavens after the work was done.
[[File:Dragon Ascent Smeargle.png|thumb|200px|Smeargle's Dragon Ascent]]
* Dragon Ascent is the only move with the word "dragon" in its English name that is not {{type|Dragon}}.

* Because the Rayquaza caught at Sky Pillar learns Dragon Ascent to replace {{m|Fly}}, Dragon Ascent is the only move that can replace an HM move in a game where the move is available as an HM.
* Dragon Ascent is the only move with the word "dragon" in its English name that is not {{type|Dragon}}. <!-- Does any other Japanese name for a non-Dragon-type move have word "dragon" in it? -->
* When used by a Rayquaza which has Mega Evolved, this move will play an additional animation before the main animation, and the main animation is also changed slightly.
* Because [[Zinnia]] teaches Dragon Ascent to the Rayquaza caught at Sky Pillar in [[Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire]] to replace {{m|Fly}}, Dragon Ascent is the only move that can replace an HM move in a game in which the move is available as an [[HM]].
* When used by a Rayquaza which has [[Mega Evolution|Mega Evolved]], this move will play an additional animation before the main animation, and the main animation is also changed slightly.
* When used by a Pokémon other than Mega Rayquaza (including non-Mega-Evolved Rayquaza), Dragon Ascent will play a cyan blue animation instead of the green animation.
