Hyperspace Lumiose (Special Scan distortion)Static encounter
Lv. 60
Post-story: after the Rayquaza mission, bank 25,000 Hyperspace survey points so Philippe can run a Special Scan, which may open a 5-star distortion holding one of the roaming legendaries (guaranteed after five misses). Not shiny-locked, so saving before the portal and reloading works.

Its treat comes from Snacksworth for every 10 solo Blueberry Quests in Violet; in Scarlet it only comes from group quests. Snacksworth appears after the Indigo Disk story; one per save, forced non-shiny.
