Terastal Phenomenon
In Pokemon Scarlet and Violet (Generation 9), each Pokémon in Paldea has a Tera Type. A Pokémon's Tera Type is inactive until the Pokémon Terastallizes, at which time the Pokémon's type will change to its Tera Type.
There are 18 types, meaning there are countless combinations of Pokémon and Tera Types. Terastallizing a Pokémon allows you to enhance your battle strategies by increasing the power of any moves that have the same type as your Pokémon’s Tera Type or by changing your Pokémon’s weaknesses.
Ice moves are bad against Water/Steel/Fire/Ice.
Dragon moves are bad against Fairy.
Fairy moves are bad against Steel/Poison/Fire.
Rock moves are bad against Steel/Fighting/Ground.
The most recommended Terastral Type for Rayquaza is: Water, Steel, Fire or Ice
Considering the amount of shared resistances against typings this Pokemon is usually weak to, we also recommend: Steel
We strongly suggest: Steel
Terastallizing into one of it's default typings ( Dragon or Flying ) could also prove advantageous.

Rayquaza is a legendary Special Sweeper for single battles. It's designed to take down the opponent's team with high-damaging special attacks. Choice Specs will increase the damage of Rayquaza's special moves by 1.5x but will lock you into the first move you pick. With Air Lock, while Rayquaza is active the effects of weather conditions are disabled. With a Eject Pack equipped to it, if Rayquaza's stat stages are lowered, it switches to a chosen ally then the Eject Pack gets consumed.
◆ Dragon Pulse is a special STAB-boosted 85-base power Dragon-type move that deals a decent amount of damage.

◆ Flamethrower is a special 90-base power Fire-type move (10% chance to burn the target).
