Hey there Pokemon fans! An from KW member WTRUCKS6 arrived here at the Kidzworld HQ just this morning and it went something like this: "Dear Gary, How and where do you get Rayquaza?" so it's time for a Pokemon video game cheat! This time it's a walkthrough for the Pokemon Ruby/Sapphire video games on how to capture the incredibly powerful Dragon/Flying-Type Pokemon Rayquaza. This game info is chillin' here on Cheat Street, Kidzworld's home for all kinds of game cheats, codes, hints, tips and walkthroughs.

Where is Pokemon Rayquaza Hiding?

Rayquaza is a super-powerful Dragon/Flying-Type Pokemon and he's hanging out at one of the hardest places to get to in the entire game, Sky Tower. You need to get all the way to the very top before you'll meet him. Good news though! We already have a walkthrough on getting to Sky Tower. It's right here.

How to Capture Pokemon Rayquaza

Ok, now you've met Rayquaza and the super-strong L70 dude just whupped your fave Pokemon. It's time to plan your attack so you can capture him good 'n proper. Rayquaza is a Dragon/Flying-Type Pokemon so, if you check out the Pokemon Strength/Weakness Chart, you'll see that Ice and Rock attacks are strong against both types of Pokemon and that Dragon attacks are weak against Ice-type Pokemon. So, grab a L70-ish Ice Pokemon and power up an Ice attack. That's a good start, but Rayquaza is still really powerful and can restore health in battle with the "Rest" ability. To stop this from happening, use an attack that will put Rayquaza to sleep so it can't heal!
