The Eon Ticket: Tips And Secrets 2

Learn how to get the Eon Ticket in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire to capture Latios or Latias and obtain the powerful Soul Dew item.

Alright, let's talk about the Eon Ticket in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire! This special item is your ticket to catching the Lati Pokémon that's opposite to the one you got at the start of the game. You've already nabbed its Mega Stone from your mom, but what's the point without the Pokémon itself, right?

While trading is always an option, and honestly way easier now than in the original Ruby/Sapphire, Game Freak likely included the Eon Ticket for a nice dose of nostalgia. Plus, there's a super important bonus: the Soul Dew! This is a 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!

Now, how do you actually *use* the ticket? Not everyone will see the special screen that pops up when you first get it, but once you have it, here's the plan: head over to the Petalburg Gym and chat with your dad, Norman. After he gives you his little speech, you'll unlock the ability to take a ferry to Southern Island.

Once you arrive at Southern Island, you'll encounter either Latias (in Omega Ruby) or Latios (in Alpha Sapphire) waiting for you. They'll be at Level 30, just like the one you initially received. After you've battled and caught them, make sure you don't miss picking up the Soul Dew from the ground! Seriously, it's a game-changer for these Pokémon, so don't leave it behind.
