The '''Defense Mechanism of Alto Mare''' ('''DMA''' for short) is a machine that was featured in [[Pokémon Heroes]].

The '''Defense Mechanism of Alto Mare''' (Japanese: '''アルトマーレの古代の機械''' ''Ancient Machine of Alto Mare''), often abbreviated to '''DMA''', is a machine that was featured in the fifth and final [[original series]] {{pkmn|movie}}, ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias]]''.  It is situated in the [[Alto Mare]] museum and it was built many centuries before the events of the movie to protect the city from danger.


The DMA was built centuries before the events in the film took place. Its purpose was to protect the city of [[Alto Mare]] from a flood. [[Oakley]] tried to use the machine to destroy the city, but her plans failed.
In order to activate the DMA, {{OBP|Latios|M05}} or {{OBP|Latias|M05}} must be used as a power source for it to work. When it has power, the pillars starts to fall down into the floor. The [[Soul Dew]] is then placed in the DMA to start it.
Once activated, the control center will open up to control the DMA, allowing the user all its functions.


{{mo|Annie}} and Oakley were both trapped in the DMA at the end of the movie, and during the credits, police can be seen arresting them.
[[Oakley]] attempted to use the DMA to take control of Alto Mare and (in the dub only) ultimately the world. When Oakley used the machine, however, she was enraptured with all of her power and overused it.  This temporary insanity is implied to be a side-effect of the DMA, that also caused both the Soul Dew and Latios to suffer, which is why it was sealed off to begin with and was considered not to be used.

While using the machine to attack {{Ash}} and Latias, however, the latter used {{m|Safeguard}}, causing the DMA to malfunction and trapping {{OBP|Annie|M05}} and Oakley in the control center.  During the credits of the movie, police could be seen arresting them. Although Oakley's plans were thwarted, the Soul Dew was ultimately destroyed.
 
==Functions==
Using sophisticated motion sensors in the DMA's control area, one can use hand signals to perform a variety of functions. It can create a lockdown by making metal barriers appear throughout the city and can even control water itself; bending it into the shape of the controller's hand motions. In addition, the DMA can also revive the [[Fossil]]s of {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Kabutops}} within the museum.
