Origin

Pokémon

Rayquaza is a Dragon/Flying-type Pokémon from the Pokémon series. It is a Legendary Pokémon and part of the Weather trio along with Kyogre and Groudon. Although it does not evolve from or into any known Pokémon, it has a Mega Evolution known as Mega Rayquaza. It appears at #200 in the Hoenn Pokédex and #384 in the National Pokédex. Rayquaza also appears in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a boss character in The Subspace Emmisary.

Rayquaza has the ability to negate the effects of the weather and prevent it from occuring; it used this ability to prevent the extreme weather conditions caused by Kyogre and Groudon in Sootopolis City, and thus preventing them from fighting. Rayquaza is very territorial, and so if someone were to invade its home, it would go to great lengths to destroy them. While it is said to reside in the ozone layer, Rayquaza may come to rest at the peak of Sky Pillar.

Unlike most Pokémon species capable of Mega Evolution, Rayquaza does not require holding a specific Mega Stone in order to Mega Evolve, as Rayquaza's body has a specialized organ known as the mikado organ, which mimics the functionality of a Mega Stone; this organ is able to store energy from meteorites that Rayquaza consumes as part of its diet, which allows Rayquaza to Mega Evolve after enough energy is consumed. Rayquaza's first known instance of undergoing Mega Evolution was in ancient times, after the stored energy in its mikado organ resonated with the cries of the people of Hoenn, which allowed Rayquaza to Mega Evolve and use its newfound power to disperse the fighting between Kyogre and Groudon and forcing them to enter a deep slumber.

In M.U.G.E.N, Rayquaza has been made twice by Cyberlizard—the second version under his current alias, Jetgoshi—and once by aitya and ROMASAGA EX. Both of Cyberlizard's versions are intended to be boss characters, though while the original achieves this through its severely increased stats and otherwise functions identically to Shazzo's Giga Bowser, the second version is a large slow-moving character with permanent armour and a wide array of heavy-hitting yet telegraphed attacks, complete with custom sprites as opposed to the edited Pokémon Ranger sprites the original used.

Cyberlizard's version[]

Rayquazaidle

Before evolving from Cyberlizard, Jetgoshi's first take on Rayquaza appaers to be a certain gargantuan reptile in disguise, featuring similar moveset to it. Having also a very high Attack stat, you better beware of its power, as it'll be very hot.

Jetgoshi's version[]

JetgoshiRayquazaidle

Jetgoshi's re-attempt at Rayquaza after evolving from Cyberlizard severely tones down the character's damage output while still retaining its boss character status. The addition of Super Armour and a high Life stat make it hard to bring down, but a crippling blind spot allows a short character or one that can crouch low enough to camp next to Rayquaza without fear of being attacked.
