Aerilate Rayquaza is a strong wallbreaker that also provides reliable entry hazard removal and strong priority. Aerilate allows Boomburst to take advantage of the lack of defensive Flying-resistant Pokemon to pressure defensive teams, while Rapid Spin provides guaranteed entry hazard removal, further complemented by Rayquaza's immunity to Spikes. Extreme Speed provides strong priority that helps against special setup sweepers like Poison Heal Arceus-Fairy and Kyogre; alternatively, Precipice Blades or V-create threatens Boomburst switch-ins like Zacian-C and Miraidon. Covert Cloak protects Rayquaza from secondary effects from moves like Nuzzle, Scald, and Mortal Spin, whereas Sky Plate or Life Orb provides more immediate power, such as letting Rayquaza 2HKO Kyogre. Offensive Pokemon like Zacian-C and Miraidon appreciate Rayquaza weakening their checks like Arceus-Steel and RegenVest Ting-Lu while also providing a Ground-type immunity; they can also Imposter-proof Rayquaza. Rayquaza is offensively checked by Zacian-C and Miraidon, so defensive checks to these Pokemon like Dondozo and Ting-Lu are appreciated. They can provide Rayquaza with slow pivoting and Spikes support while Rayquaza provides entry hazard removal. Tera Flying further boosts Rayquaza's damage output, whereas Tera Steel or Electric provides useful resistances, allowing Rayquaza to surprise threats like weakened Zacian-C and Miraidon.

Aerilate Rayquaza is a strong wallbreaker that also provides reliable hazard removal and strong priority. Aerilate-boosted allows Boomburst takes to take advantage of the lack of defensive Flying-resistsant Pokemon to pressure defensive teams. Rapid Spin provides an unblockable way to remove entry hazards, and Rayquaza can pressure opposing entry hazard setters and is also immune to Spikes, complimented by Rayquaza's immunity to Spikes and ability to pressure common entry hazard setters. Extreme Speed provides a strong priority option against certain special setup sweepers like Poison Heal Arceus-Fairy and Kyogre.;(semicolon) Aalternatively, Precipice Blades and V-create threatens Flying-resists Boomburst switchins like Zacian-C and Miraidon. A Rash nature is chosen to not reduce Rayquaza's physical bulk, letting it better check threats like Groudon and Poison Heal Arceus-Ground. rash doesn't really have any specific reason for use, so idt it needs a sentence Covert Cloak protects Rayquaza from secondary effects from moves like Nuzzle, Scald, and Mortal Spin., whereas Sky Plate and Life Orb is an alternative to provide more immediate power, such as letting Rayquaza 2HKO Kyogre. Offensive Pokemon like Zacian-C and Miraidon appreciate Rayquaza weakening walls and providing a Ground-immunity, and they can Imposter-proof Rayquaza. Rayquaza is offensively checked by Zacian-C and Miraidon, so defensive checks to these Pokemon, like Dondozo and Ting-Lu, are appreciated.*1 These, and they can also provide Rayquaza with slow pivoting and Spikes support, while Rayquaza provides entry hazard removal. Tera Flying further boosts Rayquaza's damage output, whereas Tera Steel or Electric provides useful resistances, allowing Rayquaza to surprise threats like weakened Zacian-C and Miraidon., and is best used with Precipice Blades.

*1 - i used to have this issue with run-on sentences, which ended up spanning multiple lines and were awkward to read thanks to the amount of commas. preferably try and avoid these, even if the end result is longer.

Aerilate Rayquaza is a strong wallbreaker that also provides reliable hazard removal and strong priority. Aerilate allows Boomburst to take advantage of the lack of defensive Flying-resistant Pokemon to pressure defensive teams., while Rapid Spin provides an unblockable way to remove entry hazards, that's further complimented by Rayquaza's immunity to Spikes and ability to pressure common entry hazard setters don't think it's necessary to add this part since boomburst mentions this. Extreme Speed provides a strong priority option against special setup sweepers like Poison Heal Arceus-Fairy and Kyogre; alternatively, Precipice Blades or V-create threatens Boomburst switch-ins like Zacian-C and Miraidon. Covert Cloak protects Rayquaza from secondary effects from moves like Nuzzle, Scald, and Mortal Spin, whereas Sky Plate or Life Orb provide more immediate power, such as letting Rayquaza 2HKO Kyogre. Offensive Pokemon like Zacian-C and Miraidon appreciate Rayquaza weakening walls what walls does rayquaza weaken for them? and providing a Ground-type immunity, and they can Imposter-proof Rayquaza I don't think you need the second part about them imposter-proofing rayquaza since it seems unnecessary, but keep it if you want. Rayquaza is offensively checked by Zacian-C and Miraidon, so defensive checks to these Pokemon like Dondozo and Ting-Lu are appreciated. They can also provide Rayquaza with slow pivoting and Spikes support, while Rayquaza provides entry hazard removal. Tera Flying further boosts Rayquaza's damage output, whereas Tera Steel or Electric provides useful resistances, allowing Rayquaza to surprise threats like weakened Zacian-C and Miraidon.
