Well, the thing is, Latias really has no place for substitute on that set. You need roost so you can keep it for longer term, and healing wish is only there for when roost isn't going to be able to save it (They are doing more than you can roost up is when I usually go for it), so substitute isn't really all that great of an option. With the life orb and substitute, you are already down 35%, plus if they have rocks up, that's 47% off of your whole health, and if sand or hail is up, one substitute and attack is already over 50% health gone, so it's not really all that great of an option. Usually, this latias is just supposed to come in, hit something hard with a draco, then usually switch out, do damage to something else, then healing wish off to an appropriate check.
