    I am stuck in deciding whether to use my masterball on Kyurem (i have caught the musketeer trio, victini and Zekrom)
    That leaves Thundurus, Kyurem, Genosect and Meloetta out of the legendary pokemon left (i'm using pokemon white)

    Nothing yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if I eventually used it on one of the roaming Genies... I hate roaming Pokemon, such a pain.

    Tornadus. I did not want to deal with it roaming the map while I have much trouble trying to catch it.

    This. totally.

    Having Black & White, and played them enough, I now know that using SOAK & a False Swipe Shedinja is enough to get most legends that are not name Victini, Reshiram, Zekrom, and Terrakion.

    I had to use my Masterball on Kyurem because i was battling it, and almost my entire team fainted (they were in the low to mid 50s).

    Used mine on Kyurem :)

    I don't regret it, because I feel that all the other legends were not difficult to catch. With Kyurem being on 75, I decided to just use it on him to avoid a long capture process.

    Haven't used mine yet. I know it's a waste, but I probably won't use it at all.

    Maybe if one of the legendaries turn out to be shiny. :P

    I just used it on Zekrom. I have a tradition of using the Master Ball on the cover legend, and then grinding my balls off to catch every other one (it feels rewarding), or just play long enough to do what is required to get another.

    Noob out.

    I haven't used either of my masterballs yet, though now I have two, I'm planning to probably use one on Thundurus, and then use the one in Black on Tornadus, so that I'll have a spare masterball on White anyway if I -really- need to use it, and I'll also be able to reset Black whenever I want. Such a great plan. :D

    If you're wondering why I said two masterballs, check here.

    Where'd you get a second masterball?

    If you read my entire post, you'd see a link to how on the bottom of the post.

    Just a reminder to everyone, though; keep this thread for only what you used your masterball(s) on. The other thread is for how to get the second one.

    I haven't used mine yet... Not even on Kyurem, Tornadous or Landorous...
    Used Mean Look from Cofagrius to keep them in place, been a great tool for catching roamers since Gen 2...

    Where'd you get a second masterball?

    You get another from trading 50 times.

    I haven't used either of my 2 yet. I don't really see any need to either. I have caught all the Pokemon and I didn't really have much trouble. I guess catching Pokemon has been made so easy these days with Capture Boosters from the Entralink and Critical Capture. I'll just hoard them like I do with all my other precious items.

    I don't like to use the Master Ball. It kinda makes it feel like I didn't work hard enough to catch the Pokemon. I may use it on Kyurem, just so I can use it. Otherwise, I'll save it until I find a shiny.

    I have not yet used my Master Ball, but I plan to use it on a shiny legendary I find when I start SRing.

    I used it on my genie thing. I forget which one it was in white. I think it was Thundurus? In any case, I named him Chad.
