There might be a thread like this. Well I hardly have any moments like that but I have some situations when I want to break my Game Boy. When I was trying to catch a Larvitar, it kept escaping.

I had a similar situation. I was trying to catch a Suicane(SP?). I went through six of my pokemon. and FINALLY I caught it with my graverler 1 point away from fainting.

yeah, i'm not surprised. Great balls are half the price as ultra balls and only have a 10-15% less rate of catch. In fact, I never buy ultra balls when catching legendaries – I just buy a ton of great balls because they are so cheap. In my FR game I have caught both Articuno and Zapdos with great balls; I caught Moltres with a poke ball – great balls weren’t working, I was on my last pokemon, so I said what the heck and threw my ONLY poke ball, and sure enough, by sheer luck, caught the stupid thing.

Hmm... catching a legendary with a Great ball, I can barely catch them without them escaping with many ultra balls XD.

thats why you save the money and buy twice as much great balls. even though the rate of catching may be a little lower, it'll make up for it in quantity.

Heh, I had a friend who caught Raquaza with a Pokéball. XD
Never happened to me bofore, though. But I did catch Mewtwo with an ultra ball on FR, because a "guide" (which was really a story-ized guide to red/blue. XD) I was using said to use a Master Ball, and I enjoy contadicting things. XD Wasnt hard iehter, I threw twho or three times and caught it. O_o; So I STILL have my Master Ball. XD And I just recently succeded in capuring Raikou with an Ultra ball, it's probably the hardest dog since it has thr Roar attack. .___.;

I usually have a 'home' game which I never restart. The thing is, I usually only have one game, so I never really get to restart... >_<
Anywho, I caught Zapdos in a Poké Ball. The odds are so low, it really doesn't make any difference. Bigbird (Zapdos, XD) is now a handy extra. :)

I agree with Dark Penguin; Great balls are almost the same as Ultra balls, but on topic I caught a Moltres once with a Poke ball.
