Mega Latias and Latios are the first legendary Pokémon to obtain shiny versions in Pokémon Go. They'll be on display from May 3 to 8 as part of the Pokémon Air Adventures event.

Your Latias will learn mist ball after collecting and defeating Mega Latias, whether shiny or not. It's a charged Psychic-type move that first appeared on Latias during the Pokémon Air Adventures event. For Latias, mist ball is a better move. Other Pokémon in the game, such as Reshirma, Mewtwo, Lugia, Florges, and many others, can perform what Latias can, but better.
