  • For Me it was giratina

    Because Every time it used ominous wind or ancient power it stats would raise

    All its stats raised 4 levels.

    So even with 4 ice beams it didn't even put it in the yellow zone
     

    Oh The Places You'll Go.

    Whatever will be, will be.

  • Mespirit will forever be my weak point.
    The whole chase game stressed me out a ton. I don't do cheats of any sort, so I have to do it the hard way with regular Pokeballs and Shadow Tag. Its a major pain. >.>

  • I think I had the hardest times trying to catch Heatran and Regigigas. Mesprit too, but the first two are the ones that I remember having the most trouble with since they would either faint or I ran out of Ultraballs to catch them with.

    All those psycho-type runners gets easily owned by a crobat's bite / crunch...
    id say giratina.. not only i wasn't able to catch it sometimes, when i got it it had crappy EVs.. and crappy natures.. it got on my nerves and i just threw a masterball and got myself a nice giratina with nice Evs and modest nature.

  • I had a hard time catching Ho-ho, I saved the game, then approched it then kept reseting it until when I was out of pokeballs until i finally caught it. So I manged to catch Ho-ho with a orginal poke ball =3. but as for diamond and platnium I'd say Darkrai is the hardest for me. but i usally just use a master ball for the legendaries now.

  • Hmm, All legends have a 3% catchrate, but the hardest to catch for me was either Darkrai (event) or Azelf. Took me about
    96 Ultras
    54 Dusks
    15 Timers
    and Alot of time and patience

  • I have caught the Legendary bird, MewTwo, Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, the Regis, Dialga, the three little "Mew-like" things, Heatran, Cresselia, Giritina and Regigigas all in Pokeballs, and BY FAR the hardest was Giritina. That thing took me about seven hours of playing to catch in a Pokeball. My YouTube account actually has some of the captures vidded: http://www.youtube.com/user/megafartboy ~ I know the title is obnoxious, but then again, I made it in seventh grade. ._.

    Ill go Mesprit. Probably took around 40-50 Ultras to catch..
    Giratina wasnt easy either though.
    Dialga and Palkia were by far the easiest.

  • Regigigas was impossible to catch on my Diamond. I seriously haven't caught it yet... It had probably 6Hp left and was paralyzed and i stalled as much as could then used Timer balls, since Ultra wasn't cuttin it. It ended up Struggle-ing it's self to death. And this awesome occurance happened probably 8-10 times before i gave up cause i realized i didn't even want the thing... i'll use a master ball one of these days...
