Knowing the event isn't new also gives some additional context on the nature of Rayquaza. It's entirely cosmetic, and replacing base Rayquaza in all instances of Theia Sky Ruins. All means all, so Rayquaza's background cameo and icon get swapped too for the duration. It even applies to the Practice Area.
