  • Question
    Where to find Rayquaza in Pokemon Ruby?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    Rayquaza is located at the top of Sky Pillar. You'll have to go through a few puzzles. Once cleared, go to the middle of the rock circle and you will see Rayquaza lying down. Save before attempting to capture Rayquaza; also make sure you have plenty of Pokéballs as it will be level 70. Be careful as Rayquaza knows the move Fly -- it could fly up at any time.
  • Question
    What can I use if I can't get the master ball to catch the legendary Pokemon?

    Use the timer ball to catch Groudon (in ruby), Kyogre (in sapphire) or Rayquaza (in every game). Or, you could use a net ball to catch Kyogre.
