Effect

In battle

If held by a Latias, allows it to Mega Evolve into Mega Latias if its Trainer has a Key Stone. Each Trainer can only Mega Evolve one Pokémon per battle.

Unaffected by item negating effects (such as Embargo and Klutz). Item manipulating effects (such as Trick and Fling) cannot give Latias a Latiasite or remove a Latiasite from Latias.

Outside of battle

If held by a Latias, allows it to Mega Evolve into Mega Latias when it performs a Spectacular Talent during a Pokémon Contest Spectacular while its Trainer has a Key Stone. Latias will remain a Mega Latias until the Talent Round ends.
