Long ago, on an island called Altomare, there lived an old man and woman. One day, the couple found two small children lying on the shore, badly wounded. The couple took them in and took care of them, and the children quickly recovered. But then, the island was attacked by monsters. Within moments the island fell into the monsters' wrath. But then...Before the old man and lady's eyes, the children who they had taken care of transformed into the Eon Pokemon, Latios and Latias. They called their family from the sky. They came, and carried a stone with them containing the power to force the monsters away. This gem was known as the "Soul Dew". Peace returned to the island. However, later in the present, a criminal duo - Zannâ and Rion - are seeking Latios and Latias in order to take control of the Soul Dew. Taking a short break in Altomare, Satoshi befriends Latias and is now dragged into the situation helping to save Altomare from becoming swallowed up by destruction again.

Where it came from
Pokémon Heroes: Latios and Latias was released in 2002 as the fifth feature film in the Pokémon franchise. Produced by OLM, Inc. and directed by Kunihiko Yuyama, the film was designed to shift the tone of the series by focusing on a more grounded, European-inspired setting based on Venice, Italy. The film serves as the conclusion to the original Master Quest arc of the animated series.
The visual direction for the film aimed to blend traditional hand-drawn animation with early digital compositing techniques to capture the reflective water architecture of the setting, known in the film as Alto Mare. While the movie saw a limited theatrical release in certain international markets, it is historically noted for being the final Pokémon film to receive a direct theatrical run in the United States for several years, as subsequent entries shifted primarily toward direct-to-video or television formats.
