Rayquaza (レックウザ, Rekkūza) is a fictional creature in the Pokémon media franchise.

Creature description

Rayquaza is a Legendary Pokémon who first appeared in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and, most prominently, Emerald, where it was featured as the cover Pokémon. It is the highest level wild Pokémon in the games, appearing at level 70.


In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Rayquaza's voice is from the anime movie, Destiny Deoxys, like other Pokémon in the Smash Bros. series.

Role In The Subspace Emissary

Rayquaza is the first confirmed Pokémon character to be a boss in adventure mode of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. In the Subspace Emissary, Rayquaza first appears in the jungle after Diddy Kong goes to investigate a crashed Arwing. It comes out of the water and attacks the Arwing with Dragon Pulse, then kidnaps Diddy. As it goes back in the water, Fox McCloud comes out and attacks Rayquaza, causing it to lose its grip on Diddy Kong. The Pokémon attacks Fox with energy, but Fox reflects the attack back at Rayquaza, sending it tumbling back into the water. The boss battle is implied to happen shortly after this, if not immediately following.
