Make sure to hit the Tyrantrum when it first appears, while it's on the left side of the area and actively chasing the Archeops. If you hit it once it's stopped on the right side, it'll still get mad at you, but Luxray and Shinx won't show up.

how do you get Luxray to come to your rescue against the Tyrantrum in the hot springs area? I've done exactly what the guide says and it won't show up
