How to find Latios?

It doesn't matter where I found it, it won't be in the same place. Yes, but only if you had a Pokemon on level 35-40 in the first slot of your party. Anything higher, and it won't show up, even if your in the same place as it.

You can find it anywhere, surfing, or in the grass.

Get a trapinch. It's ability will make latios unable to run off. That's all.

1) You can find it almost anywhere
2) Yes, if the leading Pokemon is lower than Lv40 and the wild Pokemon is lower than your leading Pokemon.
3) In grass and in water
4) The route that connect Mauville and Slateport City is the place where Lati@s always appear

1. Twice I have found him to the left of Pacifidlog Town (for me this is the easiest place).
2. Probably not, but I don't know (I do know that you don't need a level 40 or lower Pokemon in the front of your party, but you may have to have a level 80 or higher Pokemon).
3. You can find him anywhere (within reason).
4. Yes. First, go to Pacifidlog Town and have a level 80 Pokemon with you (might not need one). Surf to the right of the town and encounter about 3 or 4 Pokemon and if you don't find him, do the same thing on the left side (it's convenient if you surf through the narrow channel at the bottom of the town, so that you don't have to hop off and on your surfing Pokemon). Repeat this until you find him.
It works!
Latios Master

Latios can be found anywhere in the hoenn region. It doesnt matter whether it's water or grass or the desert. Max repel doesnt help. Use a Pokemon with level lower than 40. Once latios appears, you need not catch him the 1st time. Let it flee away. But you will now get his location from the Pokedex. Now have a speedy psychic Pokemon like kadabra in the first slot knowing hypnosis and ice beam(tm 13). Move in & out of Pokemon centre and keep checking latios location. Once he gets in to the area where you are, get him using the psychic pokemon.

so does that mean latios could be found anywhere?

ya but there is only one latias
so i is very hard to find and it can appear unexpected

the way i did it was by going to the area around mossdeep and i had a level forty five.i surfed around for about twenty minutes and i found him

i had a level 73 an latios came unexpected.

I first saw him near the safari zone entrance and i had a level 100 swampert as my lead pokemon. I wouldnt use a repel because it might keep him away from you. if you have a pokemon that knows the ability to keep pokemon from fleeing i would use that pokemon and try to lull it to sleep or paralyse it.

I had a level 51 Dusklops and he appeared while I was looking for sky pillar

Go to staleport city (make sure to have the acro bike) and go north towards mauville. As soon as you leave the town you should see a small patch of grass to the left and the entrance to bicycle road to the right. Use a max repel and go to the patch of grass thats 4 spaces from the far left and 3 spaces down, it should look like this

GGGG
GGGGG
GGYGG
GGGG
GG

The Y is the patch you want to be in. Now bounce using the acro bike about 50 times. If Latios doesnt appear, go into the bike road building and immediately come back out, go to the same spot, and do it again. This should only take a few minutes and has worked for me multiple times.
Good luck, keep it real.

latios can be found anywhere and you can use any level i had a level 100 groundon

stay in one place where a house and grass is and have max repl go in grass with max repl on and your pokemon first slot a level 40 or a lower for me i use a levl 40 pokemon cep run back in grass and in house because he teleport and if dost teleport he will cep teleport when going in house back to grass so cep going in and out to he might come but it hard to catch so get a lot oof balls but when he come he will run so have a pokemon the know roar and on the figst move use roar and he will not run so cep thown a poke balls

i use level 80 sceptile to catch latios

get a tropius now go to a random patch of grass of water now use sweet scent u hav 88 % chance to get it

I think there's only 2 choices to catch latios, it's either near the pacifidlog or in the grass near the bicycle road

I did a combination of two things in the above and that worked for me.
I have a lv83 swampert in the team and a golbat lv40 with "Mean look" upfront.

I had seen Latios once in the wild so he is in my pokedex.
On route 110 I placed myself like the "GGYGG" guy above describes, used a max repel.
Then I started going into and out of the bycycle path house. Every time I got out of the house I checked the location of Latios in the Pokedex.
When he(finally) was on route 110, I did the acro-bike jump thing.
... He has come out every time, I had to jump about sixty jumps but then...

Then I gave him Mean look and started battling..
He�s got a psychic attack that knocks my Golbat out so as for now I�ve thrown two ultraballs, but when Golbat faints the "mean look" effect is lost and Latios escapes.

He�s come out twice. His damage stays with him as he comes back. So you�ll know how much you need to hit him. I used air-cutter three times and that was one too many. He is down on red, that means no more hitting. Now I just need to use "mean look" and keep throwing ultra balls...

This worked great for me

Ok this is how it works first go to the bike road area with a level 40 in the lead with some max repels than you hop on an acro bike about 30 to 40 times go in the building and repeat the reason it has to be a level 40 is because you find latios at level 40 and the max repel(s) makes all Pokemon below your lead Pokemon's level not able to jump you

I FOUND LATIOS AT THE LEFT SIDE OF PACIFIDLIG TOWN BUT HE FLEE WHY AND WHERE CAN I FIND LATIAS PLEASE AWNSER PLEASE

I actually found him in the place I least expected him to appear. Grass near hometown. LOL

All of these people saying you need something special are wrong. He just randomly appears. Using a Pokemon with Mean Look or an ability that wont let it get away is recommended but not needed. I randomly found him the first time I ever played Ruby, tossed an Ultra Ball, and caught it.

The most efficient way to find him the first time is to go to cycling road by Mauville with an acro bike.
Use a repel,super repel,max repel, etc. With a Pokemon under level 40 being your lead.
Go to the patch of grass, hold b to make the bike perform jumps and wait a few seconds. If latios/latias doesn't appear, then enter the nearby building and the go back to the patch of grass and hold b again. Each time you enter the building, latios' location is randomly reset. Eventually, it should appear where you are. This is the most time efficient method of forcing it out that I know of.

The place I caught latios was in front of the sky pillar, which I didn't expect at all. I was just on my way to rayquaza.

Go to a city where right above it is a route and keep going between the city and the route and keep checking your pokedex on his location and it will eventually be where you are and I think if he is in a city find a little pool of water and swim but you will need hm surf pokeball of choice repel of choice an time to spare

The ggggyggg guy right first time I found him thank you

First get 20-30 max repels, then go to a route with a building on it, a route change thingy (dppt & frlg) and a patch of grass. Next, save. Next, go into the building come out, and go into the grass, run around like a mad chicken in it with a level 30-40 Pokemon that is stronger then the wilds, run until the max repel runs out, then go into the building and come back out. Rinse wash repeat untill the lati comes out, once it does throw your master ball, if you don't have one make sure your Pokemon knows mean look or has the ability arena trap, that way you can attack it and it wont flee, this works with any roaming legend!

I found latios once but I didnt now he would flee and then I did what the ggygg guy said and I still can't find him I even looked at Pacifidlog Town and still couldnt find him

My guess, all 6 trapinche's and get an everstone on the 1st, stock on ultra balls, get is paralyzed or somtin, then capture and hope for the best.

Try these cheats

Can you only see it 1 time??? I lost it my first time and can't find it again. But I find it between Slateport City and Mauville City. Just in the grass closest to Slateport :D

Well, when you encounter Latios once, he will be in your Pokedex. You can click on the area section and they will show you where it is. Once you enter another city or a building, it's location will be different. Everytime you see it is in a different location, enter a city or building and go back, then check again. Keep repeating till he is in your area. Make sure to have Trapinch for his ability and plenty of Ultra Balls.

Really you can find latios anywhere I've found him near mossdeep, dewford, and other places too you just gotta look round which sucks but you wanna be sure to save you're master ball for him cause if not you best have some good luck cause it takes long time to get him with other poke'balls

Go to staleport city (make sure to have the acro bike) and go north towards mauville. As soon as you leave the town you should see a small patch of grass to the left and the entrance to bicycle road to the right. Use a max repel and go to the patch of grass thats 4 spaces from the far left and 3 spaces down, it should look like this

GGGG

The Y is the patch you want to be in. Now bounce using the acro bike about 50 times. If Latios doesnt appear, go into the bike road building and immediately come back out, go to the same spot, and do it again. This should only take a few minutes and has worked for me multiple times.

This actually works, but first you must have beaten the elite four and become the new champion.

If it's doesn't work after doing this three times( going in and out of the bike road building.) Right after coming out of the building and ride a wheelie to the spot and then start jumping.

It doesn't matter what level Pokemon you have as the first Pokemon.

Hope this helped, good luck.

Once you have already seen him, he will be in the pokedex and it will show you his location

Get a wobbafett and have a timer ball with you and he will try to escape so that gives you good time for the timer ball to get powerfull and then booya you caught latios!

I saw latios on route 121 and latias on route 120
some times they appear there and on route 131 and 130

I'm surprised , I used sweet scent on tropius and do it on lilycove,nothing happened, but when I go to the ggyy guy spot, without acro bike and sweet scent , HE POPED UP!

If you have not seen latios once and cannot track it, then you have to do other things. I tried several methods, like using max repel and hopping then refreshing, and they never worked. I just started wandering randomly. Several people told me to check by lilycove, and I found it on route 121, in a patch of grass right before you reach the siblings. Putting a trapinch as your starter will also help, because it has arena trap, so latios cannot flee. If it does flee, then just fly around places and check the pokedex so you can try to figure out it's path.

So I did the ggygg guys method and it worked but I have a few adjustments just to clear all the debates and contrasting opinions
1. If you've already seen latios/latias you just need to check the pokedex if it's not your area enter and leave a house until it appears in that area
2. Don't wast your money with max repels you can use regular or super repels if your stingy with your money
3. Wobbefut, trapinch, and golbat can all work to keep latios/latias in battle if they have the right moves/ the arena ability
4. If using a golbat make sure it's faster than latios/latias or give it the quick claw
5. I don't believe level matters because I have had latios appear with Pokemon in the 70s 80s and 90s levels
6.if you haven't seen latios and latias yet just wander around without any repels working and just train your weaker Pokemon in the grass (I've never met one of them in the water) and latios will appear most likely you won't be ready but you can now track it

Hope I summed everything up alright for any late wanderers

Guys many of you the methods provided don't while some say it does. The thing is that all these suggestions don't ensure you get it on your first try, that wouldn't have any meaning would it? All these suggestions only increase your chances of bumping into Latios, but they don't promise anything. Latios can be anywhere at all, and the point of being at the most commonly suggested area, the bicycle path, is that there is a building nearby which you can enter. Entering a building will change the location of Latios to a different grass patch, so having a building next to you location makes it convenient. Bouncing on an Acro Bike would also help as I'm guessing it counts as changing location and would this increase your chances as well. I don't know the actual rationale of bouncing on an acro bike or having to stay in a particular tile, like on the GGYGG thing, but they probably know something I dont. Hope this clears up some misunderstandings, be patient, lots of luck, stock up on ultra balls and hope he doesn't flee.

I have tried every method for hours and nothing happens then I took one step in the grass outside slate port and found him

Fastest way to meet latios/latias(for who never meet them before)
+ Max repel x99
+ First slot PKM lvl ~ 30-40
+ Go to the house on Route 119( house has many Wingull)

+ Use repel
+ Go out in tall grass ~20 moves
If meet Latios/latias. Nothing new
If not go in side the house then go out and repeat. Remember use Repel to get away weak PKM

EXplain:
Each time you change map( in - out the house) Latios/latias location will random change.

So if you lucky maybe after in-out 30 times. You should meet them

I meet them after 10 min

The Latis are found anywhere. Every time you switch routes so does it. The best course of action is to just run around until you run into it, will flee and now you can track it. Don't chase it down, let it come to you. Go back and forth between two routesand check it's location on the pokedex everytime you do. When the pokedex says it is in the same area you are, use max repel and run through the grass. Max repel will repel the other pokemon. Any damage you do to it will be there the next time you run into it, just don't make it faint or you will never see it again.

1. Twice I have found him to the left of Pacifidlog Town (for me this is the easiest place).
2. Probably not, but I don't know (I do know that you don't need a level 40 or lower Pokemon in the front of your party, but you may have to have a level 80 or higher Pokemon).

Repeat this until you find him.
It works!
Latios Master






IT IS TRUE,..WITHIN 30 SECONDS I've FOUND LATIOS LEFT SIDE OF THE PACIDIFILOG CITY.

I once found a Latias when I was surfing around. It was totally unexpected and I think I was somewhere between Lilycove and Pacifidlog or somewhere around the latter. At any rate, I was somewhere on the ocean when I suddenly ran into Latias! O.O Wow! I had been hoping for an encounter, so I had a golbat ready, used mean look, and was smart enough not to have used my masterball before hand. I threw that and she was mine. I think these wanderers are all alike. I have chased down Raiku, Entei, Suicune, Mesprit, Latias, and now Latios (Still haven't found him, but close). They like to change locations everytime you go somewhere new. I caught a Suicune in LeafGreen by going to my hometown, using a decent level Pokemon, Max repels and checking every four or so Pokemon before venturing back to Pallet and back again to do the same thing. It took a while, but I found it and Ultraballed it. I have been using this method for years. It requires patience, but it hasn't let me down, yet. It got me all the wandering Pokemon on multiple occasions. Good luck. Grab your fastest and most durable golbat, teach it mean look, get around 100 max repels and a truckload of pokeballs (Ultras are fine, but I once caught a land Pokemon with a Dive ball. Anything is possible. Even capturing a Rayquaza while it is flying, with a pokeball. I did it, to my total shock. OoO!) And then just have at it. I did some leveling up while I was at it to bide my time and give me something else to do while I searched. Well, hope I helped. Happy hunting! --Jazzymon

LET ME TELL YOU I GOT MY HAND ON THIS THREE TIME BELIEVE IT FIRST TIME I FAINTED IT SO I START THE GAME AGAIN THAN ANOTHER TIME BUT I FORGOT TO SAVE THE GAME AND I LOST IT

Use a super/max repel somewhere next to the ocean left to mossdeep city using a super rod or surfing

Note:it will be very rare to find him surfing

Also if you find him once you can look in the pokedex to find him if you fly he will move.

Step 1:you need to win the game step 2:you will find your dad and your mom in your house ( your already there) step 3:your dad will give you something ( nothing meaning with latios ) the tv will be on press A in the front of the tv it will say we have found a large blue Pokemon in varios sectors of hoen I found it close to mauville and close to berry masters house it will escape without letting you attack try using mean look or a high level wobafett or a high level trapinch so it will not escaoe it's attacks are: refresh bluster something pychic and protect I don't know how to catch it I almost killed it

LOL okay so here is my experience with finding Latios. So basically, it's possible for you to meet him anywhere, but when you do (this is what happened to me) he only sticks around for you to get one hit on him per meeting. The good news to that is 1.) you can now track where he's going in your poke'dex and 2.) He doesn't heal between encounters (which I find odd yet extremely useful). Once you have his health low enough that you can catch him, use the best poke'ball you have. (trust me, it's almost not worth the trouble to try and catch him if he keeps escaping. With that advice, happy hunting.

To catch Latios you have you go everywhere. Its sad that you have to beat elite four first. When your at home you will watch t.v they are taking about latios. I got my latios by using sweet scent everywhere. If you are using your master ball to catch rayquaza or anything else you should get wobbuffet or use a move like mean look. Its easier to find latios by surfing. Latios is on level 30 so your Pokemon has to be on the same level or a light higher. HOPE THIS HELPED YOU guys.

1st apply a save and load and save to pokeball use then thow it , when it fail select load and throw sa ball again . It super effective in all Pokemon w/ pokeball only .

Okay catching latios/latias isn't really that difficult, first off, save you master ball for it since it's the only roaming legendary on the game. You want a level 39 Pokemon, as your lead, your master ball, a Pokemon with surf and some repels.

Latios/latias can be anywhere, each time you change location (when it comes up with the new location in the corner of the screen) it will move to another random location. Find a place where you can change location quickly and often where wild Pokemon are, I like to use route 128 and 129. Surf around with a repel on and a level 39 as your lead to repel anything but the Lati, if it doesn't show up, move to the next route and repeat, if you don't find it, surf back to the previous route keeping repel on. Sooner or later you will encounter it, throw your master ball and you get it, same as the dogs in previous games.

Where I found it is when I used surf for the first time went to the other side of the lake then Steven is standing there talk to him then Latias will appear and take you to a island, go through the tiny forest and then Latios is on the other side team magma admin Courtney and team magma grunt say they want latios and the mega stone then Steven says no then a double battle against you and Steven against the magma admin and grunt. After the battle latios joins your team holding a latiosite Steven gives you you’re mega bracelet then you can mega evolve latios

You can find him in grass and while your surfing. The long way of doing it is making sure he can’t escape and battling him or you can just use a master ball straight away if you have one and this should catch him instantly.
P.S. If you do do the long way make sure you DO make sure he can’t escape because Latios has a habit of running away and it usually takes a while to find him again…

Latios is a roaming Pokemon so it could take a long period of time to find Latios.
As long as your first Pokemon in your party is equal or lower than Latios I believe, either that or lower level than Latios.
Latios can be found on either land or sea.
What I usually do is enter/ leave the cycling road and enter that small patch of grass, north of Slateport City.
