Known as the Sky High Pokemon, Rayquaza is a Dragon/Flying Pokemon who originally debuted inPokemon Ruby and Sapphire. While it was a Legendary Pokemon that could be caught in the post-game, Rayquaza was also featured on the box art ofPokemon Emeraldand received a Mega Evolution inPokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. As one of the most powerful legendary Pokemon,Rayquaza is one of Hoenn’s three super-ancient Pokemonalongside Groudon and Kyogre. In battle, Rayquaza has a base stat total of 680, and its ability Air Lock negates weather effects. On top of that, the Sky High Pokemon has access to moves such as Dragon Dance, Hyper Beam, and Dragon Ascent to deal devastating damage.

Due to Rayquaza’s popularity,the legendary Pokemonhas received its share of tributes over the years. On Reddit, aPokemonfan named DoctorMcCoy1701 shared three pictures of their Rayquaza tattoo on the r/pokemon subreddit. According to the OP, they received the tattoo two years before the post, and the ink had held up in that span. The tattoo was on the left arm of the OP, with Rayquaza’s face angled towards the front of the OP’s body. Its arms and claws were raised in a battle pose as if it were ready to strike. The rest of Rayquaza’s emerald body coiled around the OP’s upper and lower left arm, starting at the shoulder and ending just above the wrist. The inner elbow was left untouched, as the artist opted to coil Rayquaza’s body around most of the lower left arm.
The OP received compliments from otherPokemonfans for sharing the tattoo. A fewPokemontrainers also wondered if the OP wouldgo back to get a Shiny Rayquazatattoo on their right arm to match the regular form on the left. The OP’s tattoo artist also received compliments and praise for their work on adapting the Sky High Pokemon in this way.
While it is not known if Rayquaza and other pastLegendary Pokemon will return to the series in The Indigo Disk DLCforPokemon Scarlet and Violet, that has not stopped fans from paying tribute to them. It remains to be seen whatPokemontrainers will be able to catch soon.
