Southern Island is a place in the Hoenn region, the setting of the third generation of Pokémon video games. It can only be iunlocked using the Eon Ticket, which can only be obtained in the game from a special event, or by mixing records with someone who has the Ticket.
Southern Island is located, as the name suggests, in the south of the region, just west of the Battle Frontier. One cannot Surf to get to the island; instead, they must board the ferry at Lilycove City with an Eon Ticket to get there.
The island only exists to enable the player to get both Latias and Latios. Once he/she has successfully defeated the Pokemon league, a newsflash will appear on TV saying that a certain colour Pokemon was seen in Hoenn. The character's mother will ask if it was red or blue. If the character says red, Latias will appear randomly around Hoenn and Latios will be found on Southern Island, and vice versa if the character says blue.
