Where to Find Rayquaza in Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl

SwSh Mode BDSP Mode

If you're looking for where to find Rayquaza, you'll find the various methods listed down below, along with any notes or special locations. This should help you figure out how to get Rayquaza in Pokémon Sword & Shield. (Currently this does not show most "strong" static encounters or Max Raid Battles.)

Special Ways to Get Rayquaza

Catchable as a legendary boss Pokémon during Dynamax Adventures in Crown Tundra (DLC), level 70. Only one of this Pokémon can be caught and taken with you in Dynamax Adventures per game save. Keep this in mind if attempting to get a Shiny version of this Pokémon! (Catching this Pokémon but refusing to take it with you after the Dynamax Adventure is complete will still allow you to try again in the future, with a new chance of it being Shiny.)

Location information on where to find Rayquaza in Pokémon Brilliant Diamond & Shining Pearl will be coming to the Marriland Pokédex in a future update! Thank you for your patience!
