The Draconid people (Japanese: 流星の民 Meteor people) are an ancient tribe of people that live in the Hoenn region.
In the games
The Draconid people first appeared in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. The only known members are Zinnia and her grandmother.
Originally, they were a tribe of Dragon-type Pokémon Trainers that lived in Meteor Falls, in a time when meteors constantly showered the area and Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre fought, until the super-ancient Pokémon were stopped by Rayquaza. A thousand years later, when a meteor struck what is now Sootopolis, Groudon and Kyogre were awakened. The Lorekeeper, standing with a rainbow stone, wished for Rayquaza to return. When it returned, that wish allowed Rayquaza to Mega Evolve. After a fierce battle, Groudon and Kyogre returned to the depths, and Rayquaza returned to the sky. Afterwards, the Draconids built the Sky Pillar, where they can summon their Lord Rayquaza. The Sky Pillar is decorated with a mural painted by the Draconids. After a thousand years of peace, they foretold that a meteor would strike once again, and planned to call Rayquaza to prevent it from striking the Pokémon world.
According to a Scientist at the Devon Corporation, the Draconids found that their Key Stones would react with Rayquaza's mikado organ, allowing Rayquaza to Mega Evolve.
In the manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
The Draconid people debut in the Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire arc of Pokémon Adventures. They are a tribe of people that live with Dragon-type Pokémon and worship Rayquaza, which they refer to as the "Dragon God" (Japanese: 竜神様). A millennia ago, the Draconids foresaw that a giant meteoroid would crash into the planet and destroy it. The current generation spends their time attempting to avert this crisis.
The Draconids consider themselves the enemies of the Devon Corporation due to its involvement in the use of Infinity Energy created from the life force of Pokémon. Devon was sent a letter of warning explaining that if they continue to use Infinity Energy, they will be attacked by the Draconids. In response, Steven Stone and his father, Mr. Stone, enlisted the help of Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald to help fight the Draconids and avert the crisis approaching their planet.
The Draconids debut in person after Ruby leaves the Sky Pillar with Latios. They are attacked by three Draconid men, who demand to know why they were at the Sky Pillar before preparing to attack.
