Strategy Overview

Latias faces competition from similar Dragon-types, such as Latios and Hydreigon; however, it is much bulkier than they are and has access to a great support movepool. Because Latias has better defenses than its offensive brother, Latios, most Latias tend to go down the supportive route, as Latias is outclassed by Latios in every way offensively. Latias, however, faces competition from Cresselia as a supportive Psychic-type. Unlike most bulky Psychic-types, Latias has much more offensive presence and a much better Speed tier. It also works well against sun and rain teams, as Latias resists the weather-boosted attacks.
