The Eon Ticket: Tips And Secrets

Discover how to get the Eon Ticket in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, capture Latias/Latios, and snag the powerful Soul Dew item!

Alright, so you've heard about the Eon Ticket in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, right? It's a pretty cool item that lets you catch the Lati Pokémon that's normally exclusive to the other version. You can already grab its Mega Stone from your mom early on, but actually getting the Pokémon itself is the main event!

While trading is always an option, and honestly way easier now than in the old Ruby/Sapphire days, Game Freak probably put the Eon Ticket in for a bit of nostalgia. Plus, there's another awesome bonus: the Soul Dew! This is a special hold item for Latios and Latias that seriously boosts their Special Attack and Special Defense by 50% each. It's so powerful, it's actually banned from places like the Battle Maison.

So, how do you actually use this ticket? Well, not everyone gets to see the special screen that pops up when you obtain it. Once you've got the ticket, your first step is to head over and chat with your dad, Norman, at the Petalburg Gym. He'll give you the rundown, and after that conversation, you'll be able to hop on a ferry that'll take you to Southern Island.

When you arrive at Southern Island, you'll find either Latias (if you're playing Omega Ruby) or Latios (if you're playing Alpha Sapphire) waiting for you. They'll be at Level 30, just like the one you might have already received. After you've battled and caught it, make sure you don't miss picking up the Soul Dew that's lying on the ground. Seriously, it's a super valuable item, so grab it!
