Southern Island (Japanese: みなみのことう Southern Island) is an island located south of Hoenn.

Access

Soaring

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the island is visited as part of the storyline. While the player is talking to Steven on the east side of Route 118, Latias^OR/Latios^AS appears before the two, asking for their help to protect its counterpart. The player and Steven ride the Eon Pokémon, soaring to Southern Island.

At Southern Island, the player encounters Courtney^OR/Matt^AS and a Team Magma Grunt^OR/Team Aqua Grunt^AS, who battle the player in a Multi Battle.

After the player defeats the villainous team members, Latios^OR/Latias^AS joins the player's party, holding its respective Mega Stone (if the player's party is full, they must send one of their party Pokémon to the PC). Noticing the Mega Stone, Steven also gives the player a Mega Bracelet. Their mission completed, the two Trainers return to Route 118. The island cannot be accessed again unless the player has an Eon Ticket.

Eon Ticket

Eon Ticket e-card that was distributed in Nintendo Power volume 173

If the player has the Eon Ticket, they can travel to Southern Island. In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, this is the only way to access Southern Island; in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the player cannot visit Southern Island again without the Eon Ticket after defeating the villainous team members here.

In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, the player must first receive the Eon Ticket from Norman. With the Eon Ticket in the Bag, the player must then attempt to board the S.S. Tidal from the Lilycove City Harbor. A Sailor will replace the usual guide, taking the player to Southern Island. In the center of the island's forest there is a mysterious sphere; upon interacting with it, the player will be attacked by a wild Latias or Latios (whichever did not roam Hoenn).

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the player must first receive the Eon Ticket from Norman after obtaining the Mega Bracelet, who then escorts the player to the Slateport Harbor. A Sailor will replace the usual guide, taking the player to Southern Island. At the back of the island's forest is Latias^OR/Latios^AS, who will battle the player if interacted with.

In Ruby and Sapphire, the player is cannot return to Southern Island after battling this Pokémon.

Obtaining the Eon Ticket

In Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, to obtain the Eon Ticket the player must either connect their game to an e-Reader and scan the physical Eon Ticket and then talk to Norman who gives the ticket, or mix records with a player who has done so. In Pokémon Emerald, to obtain the Eon Ticket the player must mix records with a Pokémon Ruby or Sapphire game that has been connected to an e-Reader that has scanned an Eon Ticket card.

In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, the player must either obtain one with a code via Mystery Gift, or StreetPass someone who already has the Eon Ticket.

Signs

The sign outside reads:

On the object inside the island is written:

In Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, there are no signs on the island; however, the player receives an obscured version of the content of the first sign from Generation III as a telepathic message.
