Mega Rayquaza Debuts at Pokémon GO Fest 2023
Published on Thursday, June 22nd, 2023 01:56:48 AM
Note: Rayquaza will only be at GO Fest events and not during the entire duration above.
The clouds are parting as a massive Pokémon descends from the sky—that’s right, none other than Mega Rayquaza, the Sky High Pokémon, will be making its Pokémon GO debut at Pokémon GO Fest 2023!
Trainers will be able to encounter Mega Rayquaza first at the in-person GO Fest 2023 events in London, Osaka, and New York City. Mega Rayquaza will then make its worldwide debut during Pokémon GO Fest 2023: Global!
This powerful Pokémon must meet a special condition before it can Mega Evolve. Read on to learn more about how to encounter Mega Rayquaza and unlock its mighty power for your own!
A meteoric Evolution!
Unlike other Mega-Evolving Pokémon, Rayquaza can’t Mega Evolve with Mega Energy alone. Trainers hoping to Mega Evolve their Rayquaza will need to teach it the Charged Attack Dragon Ascent first!
Dragon Ascent can only be learned by using a new item: Meteorites!
A special item for a special Charged Attack
Meteorites have been discovered in Pokémon GO, and it seems like they have some connection to Rayquaza—use one to help Rayquaza’s power ascend to new heights!
You’ll be able to use a Meteorite to teach the Charged Attack Dragon Ascent to Rayquaza. You can collect Meteorites by completing certain research tasks during GO Fest 2023.
New bonuses
While attacking with Mega Rayquaza in a Raid Battle or a Gym battle, the attacks of other Trainers’ Pokémon challenging that same raid or Gym will deal more damage. Their Pokémon’s attacks will deal even more damage if the attack is Flying-, Psychic-, or Dragon-type.
When Rayquaza is Mega Evolved, catching Flying-, Psychic-, or Dragon-type Pokémon will grant you additional XP, additional Candy, and an increased chance of earning Candy XL.
Like other Mega-Evolved Pokémon, Rayquaza’s Mega Level will increase the more times it Mega Evolves, improving these bonuses.
