    I heard of this theory to find latios on serebii.net cause I am having trouble. I did Beat the elite 4, talk to mom about color and saw it on tv. Can you find it by using the acro bike and bouncing on the grassy part using a max repel and leaving something on the b button so it will hold. Is this true? Is there any other strategies for finding latios?

    Hi, I am new here and I don't know where to put this post so this should be good because it's about "pokemon general" isn't it. If i'm not in the right place please don't be rude and just close it.
     
    no i have never seen it yet i am trying to find it first then i can use my masterball but i can't find it yet
     
    are you saying that this theory does not work???
     
    I closed the one earlier cause it was in the wrong place and I had answered your question. Please do not double post, that's a gimmie rule. We have an edit button, use that if you forgot to say something.

    Secondly Im not entirely sure if that theory indeed works. I just walk around and hope to find him. So you should do that. He'll pop up eventually.

    Also we have a gaming section above this so it would make more sense to post it there. I'll move it over there for you. All gaming related questions go in Pokemon Handheld Games.

    From what, I've read. It sounds like it could work. I've never tried it before though. When you bounce, it doesn't count as an actual step, but it can still put you into a wild battle if you're bouncing in the grass. Bounce+Max Repel=Endless Max Repel.

    So yes, this could work, but only if you happen to know what route Lati@s is on. If you're bouncing on a route Lati@s isn't on, you won't find it.
     
    Yes this does work. My brother has tried it on his Ruby version. This is in the Ruby/Sapphire FAQ by the way.
     
    that theory thing doesn't work, it just shows up in random areas.
    after you tell you mom the color .

    my advice is just save your master ball so when it does show up, you won't have to be chasing it around.

    We know it shows up in random areas at first, but it can only move to adjacent routes which makes it trackable. Once you're on the same route as the Lati@s, you can use the bounce thing. So long as you don't move into a different area, the Lati@s will stay in the same route.
     
    Yes it is? It just takes a while, except it Lati@s is in the same route. If didn't even try, don't say it doesn't work.
     
    Well, Here's something that MIGHT work:
    Go to the daycare route. If you have it's area in the pokedex, check it's area. If it's not there, go in the daycare and come out. It's area will have changed. Continue to do that until it's in the daycare route, then use a max repel, THEN use the acro bike trick, Find it, then capture it in a masterball. Thats all I can tell you, and good luck! :D
     
    Hi Luxer06! I have the same problem as you; beaten the Elite Four and haven't even seen Latias yet. Still have my Masterball so will use it when I see it. I'm now walking thru EVERY piece of grass in the game. I have caught all the other ones that there are to catch so hope to get it soon.

    Hi Again!

    As I came back to the little grass area close to the southern entrance of the bike path, I walked on every piece of grass and then Latias appeared! Caught it with my masterball! So I guess the theory with the acorbike and max repel may work after all but it won't appear just at your feet, you have to walk in the grass to see where it is.

    Caught it yet, Luxer06 ?

    I have evolved all the pokemon and I'm done with the game except for breeding some of the pokemon from Colosseum. I will start Firered tonight!

    To Find Latias/Latios .......

    After U beat elite 4, talk to mom and TV, then u will need to walking around a water route, you can use max repel to prevent wild pokemon to slow down your pokemon.... after u found it once, u can see where is it in the pokedex ^^
     
    if u want to find latios u need to be swift, because almost every time u go to a route/town latios changes its position.
