Latios is a Pokémon with a birdlike body stylized after a plane. Its body flows slowly into a thick neck, giving it a bulky appearance. It has no legs, usually floating instead. Most of its body is blue, with white areas near its arms and a white stripe on its back that extend up to its head. Jet-plane wings sit on top of its back, while two tall, jagged fins point behind it from its rear. A red triangle marks the center of its chest, while a blue mask partially covers its face. Long, ear-like fins extend from its jaws to over its head, and its eyes are red. It has three-fingered arms with a blue covering on the outer side of the lower arms. Latios is a male-only species, with being its female counterpart.
Latios has a gentle nature and will avoid fighting whenever possible. In the anime, however, Latios has a grumpy attitude that can easily distrust humans sometimes. It can fly faster than a jet by tucking in its arms. In Pokémon Heroes (M05), in Pokémon Adventures, and in Pokémon Journeys: The Series, Latios had the ability "Sight Sharing", which allowed Latias and people around it to see exactly what Latios was seeing. Oakley also mentioned that it can shape-shift. It prefers compassionate Trainers, to whom it opens its heart. Latios uses telepathy to detect locations and the emotions of others and can understand human speech. It can summon explosive light energy whenever an offensive situation is required. It lives by the water's edge. As seen in Pokémon Horizons: The Series, like other Legendary Pokémon, Latios can be found in the Pokémon paradise Laqua. Latios loves Latios Treats made by Snacksworth, who once encountered and followed it to a secret spot in the past. Latios can be summoned by the Eon Flute.
Forms
Latios can Mega Evolve into Mega Latios.
As Mega Latios, the blue parts of its body change to purple. Horns grow from the side of its head and run along its jaw. It loses the wings on its back and similar but larger wings attach to its lower arms, normally held in a level position. Triangle shapes now mark the forward point of its wings instead of its chest. With the exception of its eyes and body size, Mega Latios is identical in appearance to Mega Latias.
Mega Latios is said to be one of the fastest Pokémon in the world to exist. Mega Latios is regarded as one of the best Pokémon for aerial combat. Due to Mega Evolving, Mega Latios can achieve even higher speed in flight. Mega Latios is both larger and faster than Mega Latias. It can reach a speed of Mach 4.
