The Meteorite (Japanese: いんせき Meteorite) is a Key Item introduced in Generation III.

In the core series games

Effect

Generation III

In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the player can return the Meteorite to Professor Cozmo in his house in Fallarbor Town in exchange for TM27 (Return).

In Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, the player can give the Meteorite to Lostelle's father on Two Island in exchange for a Moon Stone after rescuing Lostelle.

Generation VI

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the Meteorite changes in appearance and description as the player progresses through the game's story.

• It transforms from its default form to its second form when the player obtains the Devon Scope on Route 120.
• It transforms from its second form to its third form after the player defeats Brendan/May in Lilycove City.
• It transforms from its third form to its final form after the player defeats Zinnia in Granite Cave.

At the climax of the Delta Episode, the player feeds it to Rayquaza to give it the necessary energy to Mega Evolve. In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, no Rayquaza can Mega Evolve until the Rayquaza in the story has consumed the Meteorite (there is no similar requirement in Generation VII).

The Meteorite in the anime

The Meteorite appeared in Fight for the Meteorite!. Professor Cozmo searched for it on Mt. Chimney and succeeded in finding it with the help of a scanner. Team Magma arrived and attempted to steal the Meteorite but Team Aqua's arrival gave Professor Cozmo and Ash a chance to get away with the meteorite. Professor Cozmo explained to Ash that it was part of a large asteroid that fell from space. A Golbat belonging to a member from Team Magma took the meteorite from Professor Cozmo in order to power up their machine. It got destroyed when Professor Cozmo pushed the machine down the volcano as there was no time to get the Meteorite out of it.
