Did you try to effect them with a status? As for the dogs, did you try a mean look?

 

[Deathshot]

The 3 Legendary Beats will still run if they are put to sleep some how. But Ho-oh is just luck I guess cause I caught him with a Premier Ball. XD

 

[King Gumball]

Put them to sleep, otherwise it is all about pure luck.

I tend to paralyse them when fighting. Don't know if that's just as good as putting them to sleep or not mind.

Entei keeps roaring at me as soon as he wakes up. I can't be bothered to catch them yet.

Even with status it's just a matter of luck and patience - just keep at it. But certainly main tips would be to get their health down as low as possible, and try a status - paralysis is decent as it lasts forever unless they have Rest/Refresh or something, but Sleep is the best status to use as it increases the chance of catching a Pokemon by the most. (So does Freezing but...yeah).

As for the legendary dogs, either Master Ball, dumb luck (hey it happens =p) or chasing them down the old fashioned way. Moves like Mean Look, etc will stop them running away, but Roar is still there - however there are ways around that still if you are clever about it and have the Pokemon for it - say Baton Passing Umbreon with Mean Look to say a Pokemon with Soundproof as an ability - baton passing the Mean Look keeps them there and soundproof stops Roar from working.

Anyways going to close then - any other questions, please ask them in the Help thread sticky at the top of the section.
