Posted October 2, 2014 THEY REVEALED MEGA NOT PRIMAL RAYQUAZA ITS AMAZING OMGOMGOMG NEED SHINY NOWWWEEEEE!!!!!! ...Eh-hem. I'm a bit excited. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 . From Serebii: Edit @ 16:02: Mega Rayquaza has been revealed but with no image just yet. It has a new ability called Delta Stream which creates a new weather effect that removes weather and makes moves of a type that Flying-type Pokémon are usually weak to will only deal normal damage to any Flying-type Pokémon in the battle. UIt lasts as long as Rayquaza is in battle Edit @ 16:08: Trailer also shows a move called Dragon Ascent which is said to be the most powerful Flying-type move I can't wait to Mega evolve my shiny event Rayquaza! Why Rayquaza gets a mega evolution instead of primal will be explained in the game's story apparently. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 Oh. My. God. That. Is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 Holy crap it's BEAUTIFUL! Delta Stream though? o: Hm, it protects Flying types AND removes Weather? This is awesome and SUPER OP. The sad thing is it looks like Dragon Ascent is a 2-turn move. :c But still, Rayquaza is gorgeous! At first I didn't notice the streamers and was like "It's cool, but kind of plain". But then I noticed them and I was like "OOOOOOOO: IT'S BEAUTIFUL!". I just love it. It's everything I wanted from a mega Rayquaza. Share this post Link to post

Posted October 2, 2014 Official site also posted some lore for the three Hoenn legendaries. It's pretty neat. It was a primal age, early in the world's history... The natural world was overflowing with energy. That energy granted Groudon and Kyogre an overwhelming power. Seeking ever more of that energy for themselves, the two clashed again and again, and their battles cast the people and Pokémon of Hoenn into great danger. Brimming with the overwhelming power granted by the energy of nature, this transformation was named by later people "Primal Reversion." And the people called their tormentors Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre. One Pokémon looked down upon this battle from the sky above. The Pokémon that dances in the heavens: Rayquaza. Rayquaza is venerated by the people of Hoenn as their protector and savior. When Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre had battled for 20 dawns and 20 nights, the world began to lose its natural balance and tilt toward destruction. The people, unable to endure any more, cried out to their mighty savior Rayquaza before a great stone that shone with rainbow brilliance. And a change came upon Rayquaza, weaving in the sky above Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre. Suffused in brilliant light, its body began to transform visibly. And then... Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 Hmm... Question. Can someone use both a primal AND a mega (or multiple primals) in the same battle? I'm guessing on but figured it's still worth asking. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) Hmm... Question. Can someone use both a primal AND a mega (or multiple primals) in the same battle? I'm guessing on but figured it's still worth asking. I seriously doubt it. The Primals are essentially Megas, though they don't transform quite the same way. I think it would be severely broken if you had access to both. UNLESS they add the ability to have more megas in general. Edited October 2, 2014 by edwardelricfreak Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 The second I saw Rayquaza I was like, I need to draw this ASAP. What a qt, hhhhhh. Also, I was like so relieved he had a decent design. Imo, most of the Mega designs are kinda somewhat really awful, and lazy. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 I'm a little iffy on the jaw-like horns, but other than that I absolutely love the design! I first saw the picture, and thought it was cool enough, then I saw the video and fell in love with it, the streamers sold it. Why do they just work so well for Rayquaza? Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 *spontaneously explodes from awesomeness* GF must have known how much Mega Sharpedo and Camerupt made people angry, because this totally makes up for it. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 I'm a little iffy on the jaw-like horns, but other than that I absolutely love the design! Agreed. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 I dunno, I really like the horns on the face. They're the bottom horns from regular Rayquaza, just grown out more. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 I'm a little iffy on the jaw-like horns Yeah, that's my only sorta issue, I would have preferred they make them go backward and out more Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 The bottom horns form Delta though Delta emerald confirmed Gamefreak are trolls confirmed Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) For anyone just coming in that doesn't want to have to look through the trailer to see it (though I suggest you do!) here are some pics: ...I'm still very fond of those jaw horns! EDIT: WHOOPS ninja'd a bit there o3o Edited October 2, 2014 by edwardelricfreak Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 Holy DAMN Rayquaza looks like it's going to kick some serious behind in battles. I'm impressed with that design! Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 It could still be a delta going backwards tho... I mean, how hard is it to make a triangle out of Rayquaza's head? Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 (edited) It could still be a delta going backwards tho... I mean, how hard is it to make a triangle out of Rayquaza's head? imo I think it looks better around the head. I'm trying to imagine it reversed and it doesn't sound all that great... Edited October 2, 2014 by edwardelricfreak Share this post Link to post
Posted October 2, 2014 I think the jaw horns would be better if they didn't look so much like insect jaws. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 3, 2014 I honestly like Rayquaza, a lot. It's kind of weird, but hey, it's intimidating, serpentine, and totally looks like some ancient deity. And the buggy pincers, hey, it might learn Megahorn! And then the many psychics in Ubers will cry. The weird chain things around it are really cool too. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 3, 2014 And then the many psychics in Ubers will cry. I think ubers is already welling up in tears about that ability of his... Share this post Link to post
Posted October 3, 2014 I think the jaw horns would be better if they didn't look so much like insect jaws. I have to say I agree. I don't mind them, but if they were a little more fleshed out like traditional dragon wrap around horns, like so It would have been cooler. But I get the whole Delta thing and I still love it. And the ability rocks. Share this post Link to post
