WTF @ Azelf
 
I have already gone to Uxie and Mespirit's cave. mespirit ran away like he was supposed to, and after throwing about 5 timer balls, 3 dusk balls, and 8 or 9 ultra balls, Uxie got caught in an ultra ball...

As for azelf...I have attempted him 4 times now. All 4 of the times he only had a single sliver of health left. The 4th of the 4 times i used false swipe to guaruntee that he had exactly 1 HP left (I thought maybe Uxie got caught because he was at 1 HP, and azelf wasnt), and one of the 4 times he was also paralyzed. I have probably thrown somewhere around 200+ balls at him (dusk or ultra earlier on, and i have 4 timer balls left and no money at the moment, so i throw the 4 timer balls near the end), and he hasnt gotten caught yet. Just bad luck? What ball do you suggest? I dont really know how to determine which ball is stronger in certain circumstances.

Id really like to catch this mofo because im at 149 in my pokedex, and i dont want to just kill him.

I caught my Azelf in a Heal ball. Was a fluke but it might work for you. He was frozen when I did it though.

Well, Master ball's are always good for pokemon like this. I caught both Cresselia and Mesprit with masterballs. I cloned them on Emerald and transfered them to my dimaond via pal park ^_^

from what i understand i cant use palpark till i get the masterdex thingy anyway. Plus im not doing all this cloning and hacking and such. im just gonna play the game...

The thing that sucks is that i dont have any characters that i have leveled that have paralyze/freeze/sleep/etc. I got a paralyze off of a force palm just from luck that one time.

oh, and i tried heal ball once >.> didnt work :P

Well, Quick Claw a Thunder Waving Pichu or soemthing. Train a Haunter and teach it Mean look? Catch a wild Golbat at Victory road and Mean look it? Stat reductions also increase the likelihood of catching pokemon. Also, you do know that you only have to SEE the pokemon to get the National Pokedex, so don't think you have to catch them all.

well from what i understand mean look is just to keep them from running, and this pokemon doesnt run. as far as getting someone who can freeze him or whatever, im sure i could find someone but i didnt want to have to level a pokemon just for this :(

as for the stat reduction thing, thats good to know. I can reduce his accuracy and i think defense >.>

and i dont want to kill him since its my only shot at catching him :(.

With Pokémon with a low catch rate, it's almost the same if you paralyze it or not or the ball you use. There really isn't much strategy to discuss. It's just plain luck. This thread really doesn't make sense, so I'll close it.
