Appendix:Emerald walkthrough/Section 17: Difference between revisions

Upon reaching the rooftop, you find the legendary creature fully awake beyond the final flight of stairs. At level 70, {{p|Rayquaza}} is the highest-leveled Pokémon before the credits, and as such, easily warrants the use of a [[Master Ball]]. Barring that, you will need a similarly high-leveled Pokémon with excellent Defense to counter it. Be sure to save the game, as you've only got one chance to catch it! As a {{2t|Dragon|Flying}} Pokémon, it is especially vulnerable to {{t|Ice}} attacks, but Dragon- and {{type|Rock}} moves are also useful. Begin with these super-effective moves to deal heavy damage, and consider putting it to sleep before it can restore its health with {{m|Rest}}. Follow up with {{t|Grass}} attacks, {{t|Fire}} attacks, {{t|Water}} attacks, or {{m|False Swipe}} to wear its health away even further. Beware of its most dangerous move, {{m|Outrage}}: after rampaging for several turns, Rayquaza becomes confused from fatigue. While it can deal serious damage to its target, it may also cause the dragon to attack itself in its confusion, and could end up knocking itself out!
