The Enigma Stone is very similar to the [[Eon Ticket]]. Like the [[Generation III]] event item, the Stone will trigger the appearance of the Eon Pokémon not found roaming in the version being played. In HeartGold, this is {{p|Latias}}; in SoulSilver, this is {{p|Latios}}. Also much like the Eon Ticket, the player must have defeated the [[Elite Four]] and received the [[National Pokédex]]. The Enigma Stone may be downloaded by anyone who has received the [[Pokédex]], but they must first complete the requirements mentioned above before they can accept delivery.

If it is taken to the [[Pewter Museum of Science]], traveling Pokémon Champion [[Steven Stone]] will have a researcher examine it, who discovers that it is really the [[Soul Dew]], an item said to be the crystallized souls of Latias and Latios. After this brief encounter, depending on the game version, one of the twin Eon Pokémon will attack the {{player}}, presenting the opportunity for it to be captured. It will keep returning to the same spot until captured.

It is also possible to encounter Steven randomly when exiting a building.  Steven will come up to the player and comment on how all the tough trainers he battles look alike, and then tell the player about the Eon Pokémon specific to the game version being played.  He will say that {{p|Latios}} or {{p|Latias}} leaving Hoenn and coming to Kanto has to be connected to the [[Soul Dew]], and that to catch it a person would need a way of tracking it.  After he leaves, the respective legendary can be found roaming Kanto on the Pokégear map. It is unknown whether the event at the Pewter Museum of Science still occurs.
