Southern Island is a hidden area that’s first accessible after a cutscene with Steven on Route 118.

Revisiting the island requires the Eon Ticket (obtainable via Mystery Gift). Each visit allows you to catch one of the two Eon Pokémon, Latias or Latios, with the first encounter depending on your game version. The island has no tall grass or hidden items.
