Effect

In battle

If held by a Latias, the Latiasite allows it to Mega Evolve into Mega Latias if its Trainer has a Key Stone. A Trainer can only Mega Evolve one Pokémon per battle (or only have one Mega-Evolved Pokémon at any given momentZA).

As a Mega Stone, it is unaffected by item-negating effects (such as Embargo and Klutz). Item-manipulating effects (such as Trick and Fling) cannot give or remove a Latiasite from Latias.

Outside of battle

If held by a Latias, the Latiasite allows it to Mega Evolve into Mega Latias when it performs a Spectacular Talent during a Pokémon Contest Spectacular if its Trainer has a Key Stone. Latias will remain a Mega Latias until the Talent Round ends.
