The marks by Mega Rayquaza's eyes resemble the shape of a [[wp:Seven-Branched Sword]]. It even has exactly seven points on it. I think that's proably worth noting, as that seems intentional.

== A couple of things need changing == | |||
In the trivia, part of one of the points says "or does not have a signature move." it does now. Also, the "Rayquaza's encounter in The Subspace Emissary" external link leads to a dead page. It should be removed or changed. ☆<span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span>☆ 18:53, 2 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
== Mega Rayquaza == | |||
Since Rayquaza has been stated NOT to Mega Evolve in the same way as other Pokémon, is it really safe to say that it will make use of an unknown Mega Stone? As far as I know, we haven't received ''confirmation'' that it will use a Mega Stone, and since they went out of their way to say that it WON'T be the same way as other Pokémon, I feel we should say "via an unknown method" rather than "using an unknown Mega Stone." No, I am not saying it definitely WON'T use a Mega Stone, but that we don't know ''for sure'' that it WILL, so just to be safe, shouldn't we change that? [[User:EpicDeino|EpicDeino]] ([[User talk:EpicDeino|talk]]) 10:11, 8 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
:According to logic, if Groudon and Kyogre were given primal reversion forms instead of mega evolutions, Rayquaza should have got the same. But now since it has a mega form, EpicDeino is correct. We should change it to "via Unknown Method", just to be safe. → [[User talk:PikaTepig999|<span style="color: blue">PikaTepig999</span>]] 10:24, 8 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
::I originally removed the "an unknown mega stone" and put "unknown means" because that's what its official page claimed ("a unique method"). However, [http://youtu.be/WPQg3lSvWc4?t=41s the promo video on the official channel] says, "Mega Stone obtained in ORAS" and I assume that's accurate and not a generic Mega Evo footer, so I added it in. So unless it's proven to be wrong, we assume it's a stone. [[User:ArcToraphim|Kai]] * the [[User talk:ArcToraphim|Arc]] [[Special:Contributions/ArcToraphim|Toraph]] 12:55, 8 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
:::The legend of Primal Groudon and Kyogre explictely mentions that Rayquaza used a special stone that reacted to the prayers of Hoenn to become Mega Rayquaza. This is clearly a Mega Stone. However, during the stream where Rayquaza was shown Mega Evolving against another Trainer, it said "Omega's prayer reached Rayquaza!" instead of the usual Mega Stone reacting stuff. We'll probably get more info later. [[User:Ataro|Ataro]] ([[User talk:Ataro|talk]]) 18:00, 8 October 2014 (UTC) | |||
== ORAS Artwork == | |||
Should we use [http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:384Rayquaza_ORAS.png Rayquaza's ORAS artwork] on its page now, like we're doing with the Hoenn Starters? [[User:Nintendocan|Nintendocan]] ([[User talk:Nintendocan|talk]]) 23:29, 9 December 2014 (UTC) | |||
:I agree with you, there is no point having old artwork representing the page as the main artwork of a page when there is new artwork. [[User:Ellis99|Ellis99]] ([[User talk:Ellis99|talk]]) 11:38, 21 February 2015 (UTC) | |||
== Two Questions on Mega Rayquaza... == | |||
If Rayquaza only needs {{m|Dragon Ascent}} to Mega Evolve, wouldn't that make the Meteorite's role secondary in Mega Evolving Rayquaza? And is it worthy to note that since Mega Rayquaza doesn't need a Mega Stone as a held item, it can hold an item, or has that already been noted?[[User:IM-T-MAN2|IM-T-MAN2]] ([[User talk:IM-T-MAN2|talk]]) 21:53, 4 January 2015 (UTC) | |||
== "Strong Winds" == | |||
Why would Rayquaza's type immunities due to Delta Stream not count? Mega Groudon and Mega Kyogre say they're immune to Water and Fire, and Pokemon with the potential to have abilities to change type match-ups (Heatproof, Levitate, etc) note them. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 19:25, 18 January 2015 (UTC) | |||
:{{A|Delta Stream}} does not cause a type immunity the same way {{A|Desolate Land}} or {{A|Primordial Sea}} do. [[User:Litwick96|Litwick96]] ([[User talk:Litwick96|talk]]) 15:38, 31 January 2015 (UTC) | |||
::So? All natural abilities that affect type advantages (not just immunities) are noted, like {{A|Thick Fat}}. Delta Stream may not affect type advantages quite as directly, but Desolate Land and Primordial Sea already set a precedent. A rule like "both advantages/disadvantages and immunities are noted for direct abilities, but for 'indirect' abilities, only immunities ought to be noted" would be rather dumb.

== Using Dragon Ascent to Mega Evolve == | |||
Rayquaza cannot Mega Evolve even with Dragon Ascent until after the Delta Episode. This should be noted in the top section. [[User:Crunchdog29|Crunchdog29]] ([[User talk:Crunchdog29|talk]]) 01:56, 22 August 2015 (UTC) | |||
:It does. <small>[[User:Glik|glik]]</small><sup>[[User talk:Glik|glak]]</sup> 02:37, 22 August 2015 (UTC) | |||
== Key Stone == | |||
I know the Rayquaza from Delta Episode first needs to eat the meteorite in your bag for it to Mega Evolve, but does any other Rayquaza have any condition to Mega Evolve outside of Dragon Ascent? As in, do they specifically need the Key Stone from after the 5th Gym before it can Mega Evolve? Apparently a friend of mine says the recently distributed Event Shiny Rayquaza was capable of Mega Evolving and he didn't even have the Key Stone required for Mega Evolution in general.

== New Artwork == | |||
Rayquaza got new artwork for ORAS. Can we change the main artwork, please? We did it for the Hoenn starters I don't see why we can't for Rayquaza too. | |||

:Yeah, that should really be updated. Anyone who knows how oughta get right on that.[[User:Me, Hurray!|Me, Hurray!]] ([[User talk:Me, Hurray!|talk]]) 18:55, 20 June 2016 (UTC) | |||
::We go by the officially used stock art. In the online Pokedex, [http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokedex/rayquaza Rayquaza's entry] does not use the ORAS artwork, it uses the artwork we're currently showing. (While all of our main Pokemon artwork may not conform to that guideline currently, it should.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 21:25, 20 June 2016 (UTC) | |||
:::Treecko, Torchick, and Mudkip all use their ORAS artwork, which is why I'm mentioning this [[User:Theexploringgamer|Theexploringgamer]] ([[User talk:Theexploringgamer|talk]]) 19:40, 28 August 2016 (UTC) | |||
::::{{tt|Since it's my last chance to say it|It's been exactly six months, since there was no February 28}}, I vouch for us using the new Rayquaza artwork. The Pokémon company sporadically switches between even official artwork, so we should use the newest artwork, if it's of high enough quality (which in Rayquaza's case, it is). --[[User:Celadonkey|<span style="color:#287a43">Celad</span>]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|<span style="color:#e85545">onkey</span>]] 02:03, 2 March 2017 (UTC) | |||
:::::I also vouch for using the new artwork. The previous argument of the official site using RS Rayquaza isn't very valid anymore; they've reverted to using RS images for Torchic, Treecko, and Mudkip, not even the Emerald artwork.

== Shouldn't the trivia say "both also requires capture to continue storyline." == | |||
I would've undone the edit, but I'm not allowed to edit trivia. [[User:Unowninator|Unowninator]] ([[User talk:Unowninator|talk]]) 16:45, 19 June 2016 (UTC) | |||
:Thanks MetalMetroid997, but shouldn't it say "<I>both <B>are</b> also Pokémon that must be captured before the story can proceed.</i>" ? [[User:Unowninator|Unowninator]] ([[User talk:Unowninator|talk]]) 17:45, 19 June 2016 (UTC) | |||
== Shuffle Sprite == | |||
At the moment the sprite for Shiny Mega Rayquaza is called Shuffle384MS. | |||
However, as the sprite for Shiny Rayquaza is called 'Shuffle384S', the format automatically wants to use 'Shuffle384SM'. | |||
This file does not exist, which causes the sprite to not be displayed correctly. Can someone change the name of this file, in order to correctly display the sprite? {{unsigned|Hydrachomp}} | |||
:A redirect has been created, so the sprite now displays correctly. --[[User:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#95EB5C">Carmen<small>★</small></span>]] <small>''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#FEBEE8">(Talk |</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#A6DAFC">contribs)</span>]]''</small> 19:04, 5 March 2017 (UTC) | |||
== Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon Catch Rate? == | |||
In ORAS, all previous legendaries had their catch rate set to 3 (Groudon, Kyogre, Palkia, Dialga, Reshiram, Zekrom, Yveltal, Xerneas), while Rayquaza's was raised to 45 due to it being a required catch. Since it is no longer a required catch, has its catch rate been changed back to 3? Has anyone rechecked the catch rate? I quickly Googled it and didn't see any discussion on it. [[User:ArtistKyurem|ArtistKyurem]] ([[User talk:ArtistKyurem|talk]]) 04:00, 23 February 2018 (UTC) | |||
:It has, the catch rate 45 was for special occasion and story mode reasons only. Hence why its back to 3.--[[User:Jacob9594|Jacob Kogan]] ([[User talk:Jacob9594|talk]]) 04:36, 23 February 2018 (UTC) | |||
::Are you merely speculating or do you know that for a fact, Jacob? [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 06:13, 23 February 2018 (UTC) | |||
:::I assume it was for that was catch for all the Legendary Pokémon at first, but looking around the internet and other sources, I think I may be incorrect on that, and the that the catch rate may still be 45, considering I was able to catch Rsyquaza with just a Quick Ball in Ultra Sun. What do you think PumpkinKing?--[[User:Jacob9594|Jacob Kogan]] ([[User talk:Jacob9594|talk]]) 06:17, 23 February 2018 (UTC) | |||
::::I think we should wait for someone who actually knows the answer. Please don't assume, and ''especially'' don't misrepresent your assumptions in a way that people might mistake them for the truth.

== Intro == | |||
"In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the Rayquaza featured in the Delta Episode must be caught (which requires it to eat the Meteorite) before the player can Mega Evolve any Rayquaza." | |||
Is the bit about Rayquaza having to eat the Meteorite before Mega Evolving really relevant for the intro of the article? The player cannot catch the Rayquaza until after that cutscene has passed. --[[User:Celadonkey|<span style="color:#00A1E9">cela</span><span style="color:#BF004F">donk</span>]] ([[User talk:Celadonkey|talk]]) 21:44, 4 June 2020 (UTC) | |||
