Latias and Latios are fictional creatures in the Pokemon franchise. They appear in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a 2-in-1 Poké Ball Pokémon.

In Super Smash Bros. Brawl

As a Poké Ball Pokémon

Latias and Latios appear in Super Smash Bros. Brawl as a 2-in-1 Poké Ball Pokémon, marking the first time two different species of Pokémon come out of one Poké Ball. Only one will come out, but both have the same outcome.

When summoned, both Latias and Latios scoot off in opposite directions. They zoom back and cross paths using Steel Wing in an X-fashion, similar to Kat & Ana Assist Trophy (However, Kat & Ana cross at the same time, while Latias and Latios cross one at a time). The impact causes heavy damage, and knockback is rather strong. The winds from their speed pick up and affect items and characters, forming a sort of "vacuum" at their intersections. This can be extremely dangerous for light characters and those with poor recoveries because a player can easily get caught in a "vacuum" and get KO'd off the side or knocked too far way from the stage to recover. They do not harm the person who summoned them. Despite them being very rare in the Pokemon games (running from the player at every opportunity), they are actually quite common in Brawl.

Latias and Latios can be avoided by using a recovery move like Pit's or Snake's to hover around the upper blast line. Since Latias and Latios usually do their attack horizontally, the technique will usually work, but if the player starts to fall, they are likely to get hit.

As a Trophy

Eon Pokémon. There are only female Latias and only male Latios. If they sense the presence of a human or an enemy, they will generally use the light-bending trait of their down coats to make themselves invisible. They use telepathy to speak to companions. They travel in herds, but even so, they are rarely seen. They're a combination of Dragon and Psychic types.

Trivia

  • The crowd does not gasp when Latios and Latias appear, which they do when other Legendary Pokémon are sent out.
  • If Olimar's End of Day is activated when Latios or Latias come out of the Poké Ball, they fly vertically.
