==Plot==
==Plot==
<!--{{incomplete plot}}-->
Following the [[JN145|vision]] of a {{p|Latios}} shown to them by {{an|Latias}}, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} decide to follow her and help Latios out. While following Latias on {{TP|Brock|Steelix}}, Latias shows Ash telepathic images of how she had followed him after [[JN137|their initial encounter]], including [[JN142|the instance where she had saved him from a fall]]. Suddenly, Latias starts Sight Sharing another vision with them, showing Latios fleeing from a {{OBP|Pokémon hunter|JN146}} riding on a {{p|Hydreigon}}. The vision cuts off when the hunter fires an energy beam at Latios. Latias starts panicking, especially when her desperate attempts to recontact Latios fail. Since it's about to get dark, {{an|Brock}} suggests they settle down for the night. Ash agrees and calms Latias down by telling her that Latios will be fine. Meanwhile, [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} each arrive at the {{an|Team Rocket HQ}}, intending to start their own independent careers as [[Team Rocket]] members while being unaware of each other's presence.
<!-- Detailed Plot goes here. -->
 
At the group's campsite, they figure that the wounds Ash saw on Latias the first time he met her could've been caused by the hunter, and she later escaped with Latios's help. After a filling meal and a good night's sleep, the group wakes up when Latias receives a telepathic message from Latios. They follow Latias to a cave, where they find Latios, who is distrustful towards them. Unfortunately, Ash's attempts to convince him to trust him are interrupted when the hunter, having followed them to the cave, attacks. The group and the {{pkmn|category|Eon Pokémon}} fight back, but eventually, Latias is struck by an energy beam from the hunter's device, turning her to stone. He flees with Latias, taunting Latios to follow him as Ash sends his {{AP|Swellow}} after the hunter. Latios tries to follow, but is too injured to keep flying. Ash manages to convince Latios let him treat his wounds, after which they leave to pursue the hunter, with Ash riding on Latios. They find the hunter on a beach, held back by Swellow.
 
As soon the hunter spots the group, he flees into an area filled with tall stone pillars that inhibit Latios's movements, petrifying Swellow and Steelix as well to keep them from interfering. Brock advices Ash to destroy the hunter's device to turn the stone Pokémon back to normal. Instructing Latios, Ash has him attack Hydreigon from a close range, freeing Latias from its grasp and getting {{AP|Pikachu}} close enough to destroy the hunter's energy blaster with {{m|Iron Tail}}, restoring Latias, Swellow, and Steelix to normal. Ticked off, the hunter relentlessly attacks Latios, until Latios finally agrees to let Ash guide him in this {{pkmn|battle}}. Ash has Latios use {{m|Psychic}}, which, while ineffective against Hydreigon, momentarily blinds it, allowing Latios to land an {{m|Aura Sphere}} from above and defeat Hydreigon. The desperate hunter charges at the Eon Pokémon on foot, but Latias holds him back just as [[Officer Jenny]] shows up to take him into custody.
 
As the time comes for the group to say goodbye to Latios and Latias, they notice that Latios's wounds haven't completely healed yet, but Latios, still distrustful towards [[human]]s, disregards Ash's concerns about them. Ash asks him to battle together with him some other time as Latios flies away with Latias. The group wonders what the home they're headed for could be like, with Ash thinking he should probably head back [[Pallet Town|home]] too.
 
After a long flight, Latios and Latias arrive in the city of [[Alto Mare]], flying past {{OBP|Bianca|M05}} the painter girl and through the {{OBP|Secret Garden|location}}, where [[Latias (M05)|a girl who looks exactly like Bianca]] is playing on a swing, before heading off into the distance once more.

* This episode's plot is similar to that of ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias]]''.

** {{p|Latios}} and {{an|Latias}} going to [[Alto Mare]] at the end of this episode references the fact that many individuals of their species come and go from the city.

** Music from ''Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias'' is reused in this episode.
* The {{OBP|Pokémon hunter|JN146}} in this episode is very similar to [[J|Hunter J]] from ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'', as both of them fly on a [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]] and possess an energy blaster that turns Pokémon to stone.

* This is one of the few episodes where the English dub title is a direct translation of the Japanese title.
** It is also the first dub title since ''[[DP073|Crossing Paths]]'', 692 episodes ago, not to end with either an exclamation or question mark.
* Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} narrate the preview for the [[JN147|next episode]].
** The preview has a different closing line, with it saying 「{{tt|ピカチュウ、ずっと一緒にいてくれよな|&quot;Pikachu, zutto issho ni itekureyona&quot;}}」("Pikachu, please stay with me forever") instead of 「{{tt|みんなもポケモンゲットだぜ!|&quot;Minna mo pokemon getto daze!&quot;}}」("Everyone, go out and catch Pokémon!")
** This is the last time Ash and Pikachu narrate the preview for the next episode.
* While the English [[dub]]'s title shown on-screen during the episode lacks an exclamation point, it is included in  [[Pokémon.com]] and [[Netflix]] listings.

===Errors===
* Near the end of this episode, Latias restrains Latios due to him slapping Ash's hand away when the latter tries to touch him. When this scene is followed by a close-up shot of Ash and Latios, Latias's right arm is colored the same blue as Latios's.
* While Ash screams for Latios, the English dub's closed captions mistakenly refer to him as Latias instead.
* In the {{pmin|the Czech Republic|Czech}} dub, Latias is referred to as a male.

Blurb

After Latias shows our heroes a mysterious vision of Latios in trouble, Ash and his friends decide to help. They discover that Latios is attempting to flee a Pokémon hunter! Latias starts to panic when its sight sharing power loses contact with Latios, but Brock and Ash convince it to settle down for the night. In the morning, the group follows Latias to a cave where Latios is hiding. Latios is distrustful of humans, but before Ash can convince it of his goodwill, the hunter appears! Despite a fierce battle, Latias is captured. Now Latios must work together with Ash to save Latias and bring the hunter to justice.

Plot

Following the vision of a Latios shown to them by Latias, Ash and his friends decide to follow her and help Latios out. While following Latias on Steelix, Latias shows Ash telepathic images of how she had followed him after their initial encounter, including the instance where she had saved him from a fall. Suddenly, Latias starts Sight Sharing another vision with them, showing Latios fleeing from a Pokémon hunter riding on a Hydreigon. The vision cuts off when the hunter fires an energy beam at Latios. Latias starts panicking, especially when her desperate attempts to recontact Latios fail. Since it's about to get dark, Brock suggests they settle down for the night. Ash agrees and calms Latias down by telling her that Latios will be fine. Meanwhile, Jessie, James, and Meowth each arrive at the Team Rocket HQ, intending to start their own independent careers as Team Rocket members while being unaware of each other's presence.

At the group's campsite, they figure that the wounds Ash saw on Latias the first time he met her could've been caused by the hunter, and she later escaped with Latios's help. After a filling meal and a good night's sleep, the group wakes up when Latias receives a telepathic message from Latios. They follow Latias to a cave, where they find Latios, who is distrustful towards them. Unfortunately, Ash's attempts to convince him to trust him are interrupted when the hunter, having followed them to the cave, attacks. The group and the Eon Pokémon fight back, but eventually, Latias is struck by an energy beam from the hunter's device, turning her to stone. He flees with Latias, taunting Latios to follow him as Ash sends his Swellow after the hunter. Latios tries to follow, but is too injured to keep flying. Ash manages to convince Latios let him treat his wounds, after which they leave to pursue the hunter, with Ash riding on Latios. They find the hunter on a beach, held back by Swellow.

As soon the hunter spots the group, he flees into an area filled with tall stone pillars that inhibit Latios's movements, petrifying Swellow and Steelix as well to keep them from interfering. Brock advices Ash to destroy the hunter's device to turn the stone Pokémon back to normal. Instructing Latios, Ash has him attack Hydreigon from a close range, freeing Latias from its grasp and getting Pikachu close enough to destroy the hunter's energy blaster with Iron Tail, restoring Latias, Swellow, and Steelix to normal. Ticked off, the hunter relentlessly attacks Latios, until Latios finally agrees to let Ash guide him in this battle. Ash has Latios use Psychic, which, while ineffective against Hydreigon, momentarily blinds it, allowing Latios to land an Aura Sphere from above and defeat Hydreigon. The desperate hunter charges at the Eon Pokémon on foot, but Latias holds him back just as Officer Jenny shows up to take him into custody.

As the time comes for the group to say goodbye to Latios and Latias, they notice that Latios's wounds haven't completely healed yet, but Latios, still distrustful towards humans, disregards Ash's concerns about them. Ash asks him to battle together with him some other time as Latios flies away with Latias. The group wonders what the home they're headed for could be like, with Ash thinking he should probably head back home too.

After a long flight, Latios and Latias arrive in the city of Alto Mare, flying past Bianca the painter girl and through the Secret Garden, where a girl who looks exactly like Bianca is playing on a swing, before heading off into the distance once more.

Trivia

Errors

  • Near the end of this episode, Latias restrains Latios due to him slapping Ash's hand away when the latter tries to touch him. When this scene is followed by a close-up shot of Ash and Latios, Latias's right arm is colored the same blue as Latios's.
  • While Ash screams for Latios, the English dub's closed captions mistakenly refer to him as Latias instead.
  • In the Czech dub, Latias is referred to as a male.
