When you earn the Eon Flute during the events in Sootopolis City, you’ll be able to Soar on the back of Mega Latios/Mega Latias, flying around the Hoenn region in a very free manner. Besides being an incredible experience, there are some things you can only encounter while soaring.
Flying Pokemon¶
Firstly, as you fly over Hoenn, you’ll see various flocks of birds. If you collide with one of them, you’ll end up battling some kind of bird Pokémon: as far as we know, the list below is all that can be found in such a fashion.
Mirage Spots¶
As you Soar throughout the region, you’ll be able to see a number of reddish sparkles above various areas. If you land there, at one of these Mirage Spots, you’ll often be able to encounter Pokémon normally not native to the Hoenn region, yet nonetheless there in the wild.
In some cases, you’ll even find legendary Pokémon! In any case, the variety of Pokémon will be determined by the name of the Mirage Spot and its location, as noted below. Note that they’ll not all be available to begin with; some will disappear depending on the day and others can be received by StreetPass.
