>>21989246It's pretty much a 800 BST unrestricted mon with fucking huge offensive capabilities, 180/180 offenses, it has Flying STAB, but it's ability removes its flying weaknesses like Rock or Electric. It has the movepool necessary to run through everything in the entire game, on top of that it has access to 2 great boosting moves, SD+DD, powerful priority in Extremespeed, AND it's a mega that can hold an ITEM, so you can run nearly any kind of set, so it's extremely versatile and can run fucking huge array of different sets, but it doesn't need them considering Dragon Ascent breaks EVEN Skarmory at +2
+2 252+ Atk Life Orb Rayquaza Dragon Ascent vs. 252 HP / 252+ Def Skarmory: 203-239 (60.7 - 71.5%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery

+2 252+ Atk Life Orb Rayquaza Dragon Ascent vs. 248 HP / 252+ Def Multiscale Lugia: 214-252 (51.5 - 60.7%) -- 94.1% chance to 2HKO after Leftovers recovery
It has literally no counters and an extremely small amount of checks, the closest thing that comes to checking it is another Mega Rayquaza, the power creep brought with this fucker is massive, nothing comes close to this (aside RBY Mewtwo as I've already mentioned), not even Xerneas at the start of the gen is comparable to this.
Some other pokemon like Arceus or Giratina or Mega Mewtwo are disadvanged since they need Plates/Orbs/MegaStones, Mega Ray doesn't need any of that.
In short it's a really bulky attacker that tears Ubers a new asshole and nothing in the last few gens is comparable to it at all
