Nurse Joy's Latias

Nurse Joy's Latias was one of the few legendary Pokemon to be caught in the anime. It is unknown where or when Nurse Joy found and caught Latias. She was used by the Gym Inspector Nurse Joy to battle Forrest's Rhyperior. Rhyperior put up a good fight and might have beaten Latias if the legendary Pokemon had not kept on restoring her energy with Recover. Eventually Latias managed to win the battle. However Nurse Joy was impressed by Forrest's skill and made him the official Pewter City Gym Leader.
