TOUCH THE SKY!!! IM, IM SKY HIGH!!!
IM, IM SKY HIGH!!!! SKY HIGH!!! (check Rayquaza's type
if you're in a WTF mood right now). Yes, Rayquaza, a 23
foot long legend who's also a boss in SSBB. A sight to
behold for sure. Personally, I'm just happy I don't have
to review another LV. X (yay two abilities!). To the
card!
Basic: Rayquaza is a big basic
pokemon. It's legendary and huge, and like many of it's
fellow gargantuan rarities, it is a bad starting basic.
Seriously, starting a Rayquaza sucks. Even if you get
the attack powered up, blowing away a Phione or Chatot
is such a waste. I mean for the damage, you could OHKO
TWO OF THEM! So to prevent this, I'd recommend ONLY
playing 1-2 of these.
Speed Gain: This card's saving grace.
If it didn't have this and had some, like, Time Bellow
attack, this card would be nothing more than an
afterthought. Speed Gain can, inconsistently, power up
Rayquaza for the time when you'll need that one, big,
KO. Not being able to grab Multis hurts, but still a
strong power. It's about a free energy every other turn.
Sky Judgement: The one trick of this
pony, Sky Judgement blows away anything that doesn't end
in Lord or Erior. It does require two energy types, like
the Lats, but fire and electric can form some
interesting combinations...
Weakness: This legend is so afraid of
Blissey, it's sad. A Blissey two attacks in will OHKO
this thing, so Judgement or Warp fast. Random colorless
pokes you see (Porygon 2/Z, Garchomp, hell even Togetic/Togekiss)
will take advantage of this. Don't bench when there is a
chance of it getting warped out.
Resistance: Won't REALLY matter
Retreat Cost: YOU. DON'T. WANT. TO.
START. WITH. IT. no amount of Felicity will make it
okay. Warps will help it once it gets the right energy
amount though.
Combos:Obviously, needs a deck that
can support it's two colors. Maybe a Magmortar/Luxray
build? Not many things to combo with for him. Just any
build with Fire and Electric, and who could use a big
hitter late game....still a one-trick pony...
Ratings:
Modified:2.5/5 It's just too
situational to warrant anything higher
Limited: 3.5 If you can draft a good
Electric/Fire Deck, this card can become a silver bullet
who will probably die after it's use. Such is the life
of a bullet..
