    • Make sure to have a lot Max Repels. This will make it easier to catch Latias/Latios since the only Pokémon you'll encounter while using a Max Repel has to be at a level equal or higher than your first Pokémon.

    • Use the Max Repels and run in the grass. After around 20 seconds, run into the door and back out. Keep doing this until you encounter whichever one you chose.

    How do I get Latias if I picked Latios?
    Community Answer
    The only way to do this is by trading. Find a friend who has Latias and is willing to trade it, then you should be okay.

  • Question
    Why do you go into and then out of the door?
    Aannoonnyymous
    Community Answer
    After running through the grass for a while you can determine if the Latios/Latias is in that location. You would go in then out of a door to reset their Pokédex location.

  • Question
    Is there any way to find Latias without having to run through a cave or grass?
    Gavin Yun
    Community Answer
    If you are able to participate in the Eon Ticket event, you can get Latias at Southern Island provided that Latios is a roaming Pokemon. If you didn't, then you can only get Latias without a random encounter by cheating.

      Tips

      • They appear at Level 40.
        Thanks
      • Wynaut and Wobbuffet have an ability called "Shadow Tag". This prevents Pokémon from fleeing. Have a strong Wynaut or Wobbuffet (Latios/Latias will attack you) first in your team so that you can keep throwing balls at Latios/Latias without them escaping
        Thanks
      • Having a Pokémon with Block or Mean Look can help.
        Thanks
