After completing the above requirements (being obtain HM Surf and unlock Southern Island), the player will be called by their partner to head to Pokémon Square, where a small crowd has gathered. The older purple Kecleon is upset that a mysterious culprit had taken away his TMs. The player then gains access to Northern Range after the conversation has ended.
At the end, the player will come across Latios who is the culprit behind the TM thieving. Latios will then engage in battle with the player, and upon defeat he faints. When Latios wakes up, he is in Pokémon Square and the purple Kecleon angrily asks what he wanted to do with the TMs. Latios then explains that he and his sister, Latias, were flying when a meteorite from the meteor destroyed by Rayquaza had hit Latias on the wing, causing her to fall into Pitfall Valley. As a result, he had stolen the TMs in an attempt to learn moves in order to go and save his sister. Heart-warmed by this act of kindness, the purple Kecleon changes demeanour.
The player and partner then decide to help Latios, but don't know how to get to Pitfall Valley. Alakazam, who is with them, tells them that the Teleport Gem that they possess can still carry them to Pitfall Valley despite the damage it has sustained from the events of the late main game.
