Strategy

Latios appears alongside allies Salamence and Dragonite. They are all weak against Dragon-type attacks. Salamence and Dragonite will attack the whole allied team and raise the stats of the oppnent. Salamence and Dragonite will continue to raise Latios's stats, so focus your attacks on Salamence and Dragonite.

Don't forget that Latios will attack with powerful special moves (Drago Meteor and Surf) and physical attack moves (Earthquake and Double-Edge). All opponents use powerful attacks, so try to raise the Defense and Sp. Def for all allies.
