| | ==In the anime== |
| | | All three members of the weather trio have appeared in the anime. Kyogre and Groudon both debuted in [[AG097]]. Kyogre had been captured by [[Team Magma]], who were also in possesion of the blue orb. Groudon was in [[Team Aqua|Team Aqua's]] possesion along with the red orb. The two teams were planning on swapping Groudon and Kyogre, but Kyogre was released by Team Aqua commander [[Shelly]], who had infiltrated Team Magma. [[Archie]] then proceeded to take control of Kyogre using the red orb. In the [[AG098|following episode]] Archie threatened to use Kyogre's power to flood the island both teams had ment at. At this time the now awakened Groudon came and began to battle with Kyogre. During this time Lance and Ash's friends managed to snap Archie out of the red orb's possesion. Now free from the orbs' possesion Kyogre and Groudon retreated into the ocean and a volcano, respectively. |
| [[File:Weather trio.png|thumb|210px|Groudon and Kyogre battle as Rayquaza arrives.]]
| | [[p|Rayquazya]] debuted seperately from the other members of its trio. A Rayquazya first appeared in [[M07]] defending its territory from a [[p|Deoxys]]. It later made its television debut in [[DP43]] as an illusion. |
| The '''weather trio''', also less commonly referred to as the '''elemental trio''', is the [[legendary trio]] made up of {{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Kyogre}}, and {{p|Rayquaza}}. They are referred to in the games as the '''super-ancient Pokémon''' (Japanese: '''超古代ポケモン''' ''super-ancient Pokémon''), although the Japanese anime has applied this term to [[Fossil]] Pokémon as well.
| |
| | |
| The weather trio could be references to the Biblical mythologies, {{wp|Leviathan}}, a sea monster; {{wp|Behemoth}}, a land beast; and {{wp|Ziz}}, a giant bird, respectively. Also, their role as the guardian, as well as their respective typing, are related to the elemental spheres; Kyogre being the {{wp|hydrosphere}}, Groudon being the {{wp|lithosphere}}, and Rayquaza being the {{wp|atmosphere}}. These three members all appear to have similar physiology; identical signs on their body, as well as their yellow eyes.
| |
| | |
| Although several non-legendary Pokémon, such as {{p|Tyranitar}} and {{p|Abomasnow}}, have [[Ability|Abilities]] that can alter the [[weather conditions]], and Pokémon with the Ability {{a|Cloud Nine}} are capable of stopping weather effects altogether, Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza's Abilities were the first sight of these {{cat|Abilities with effects on weather conditions|weather-changing ones}} in the games. This makes them the first legendary trio not to share one universal Ability.
| |
| | |
| Unlike Pokémon with moves like {{m|Sunny Day}} and {{m|Rain Dance}}, where the weather changes to another for only five turns, the Abilities of the legendary trio cause their weather effect for the remainder of the battle, or until the weather is changed again in some way. Rayquaza's, however, only lasts as long as it remains active, and with its {{a|Air Lock}}, which removes the battle effects of any weather on the field, leaving it to just be a pretty-looking environmental effect.
| |
| | |
| They do not appear to have a [[Trio master]], though Rayquaza seems to serve as the leader of the three internally. It was shown quelling a violent confrontation between the other two Pokémon during the events of {{game|Emerald}}.
| |
| | |
| This, the [[Tao trio]] and the [[Kami trio]] are the only legendary trios whose members do not all have the same [[Base stats|base stat]] total; Groudon and Kyogre share a total of 670, while Rayquaza's is 680. This fits with its role as a mediator between Groudon and Kyogre.
