To successfully evolve Rayquaza, Pokemon Go players must first conquer and capture Rayquaza in Raids and acquire Mega Rayquaza Energy. Afterwards, they must utilize 300 Mega Energy to initiate the evolution process.

The return of Mega Rayquaza has been officially announced for June 29, 2024, with Elite Raids scheduled from 12 PM to 1 PM and 5 PM to 6 PM (local time).

Prior to this, Rayquaza’s Mega evolution required the use of an Item called Meteorite in addition to Mega Energy. However, it remains unclear if this method will be reintroduced for the upcoming Mega Rayquaza Raids, as Niantic has not provided any details.
