One of the most powerful and popular Pokemon in the franchise, Rayquaza returns ito Raid Battles as a Tier 5 boss, from July 31 to September 2, 2019.

For the first time since the game was created, this Legendary Pokémon will be available in Shiny Form!

Officially, your chance of finding a Shiny Rayquaza is 5% per Raid Battle — one for every 20 raids.

How do you counter Rayquaza?

There are no real secrets to defeating Rayquaza — his double weakness against Ice-type Pokémon and attacks means he is relatively easy prey. Just take care to avoid playing other Dragon-types against him, because Rayquaza makes an easy meal of them!
