rishi 20 September 19th, 2007 7:19 AM

goto be regigas it only took me 2 balls

Trainer Trance September 19th, 2007 8:27 AM

Any except for Mesprit and Cresselia... Especially Cresselia, that running piece of- nothin...

The rest of them were all in getting to them, or findin someone with Diamond to transfer over Dialga.

-Jirachi- September 19th, 2007 8:42 AM

For me it was two.

Cresslia who took my Gengar with Mean Look, Hypnosis and Dream Eater to bring to small red then one Dusk Ball to catch.

The other was Giratina with, again, same stragety :P.

BPHComix September 19th, 2007 8:58 AM

Palkia was the easiest for me to catch.

sandeep0767 September 19th, 2007 9:54 AM

lol mine was probably dialga took me 2 balls

becky92 September 19th, 2007 11:10 AM

Dialga was pretty easy, it only took me 4-ish balls.

Shiver September 19th, 2007 12:00 PM

The easiest one for me must of been Diagla, he only took two balls.

psychoforever September 19th, 2007 12:21 PM

Dialga. Masterball. We all go home happy. lol.

Bathing Ape September 19th, 2007 12:31 PM

Palkia and Uxie were the easiest for me, using less than 10 Ultra balls each

~Paul.Addicted~ September 19th, 2007 12:35 PM

Diagla for me, it was soo easy to catch, i caught it in 1 quick ball ( at the beginning of the battle ). I turned my ds off and started again because it was anti climax.

Espeon Master September 19th, 2007 12:36 PM

Dialga, caught with a dusk ball

jigglyppuff8 September 19th, 2007 12:44 PM

Statistically, Palkia and Dialga would probably be the easiest to catch. You have as much of a chance of catching them as a...chansey, Absol, and Chatot. It would be harder to catch pokemon such as Snorlax, Mantine, and Skarmory.

The easiest for me to catch was... Heatran, took me only a 10 ultra/dusks.

punch bag September 20th, 2007 11:27 AM

Heatran, only took one dig atack and 2 ulrta balls.

Toothache September 20th, 2007 12:20 PM

Dialga was quite easy for me, I used a Great Ball to catch it. I got lazy with Cresselia and Master Balled it for a good nature. Mesprit wasn't hard, just took a while cos it liked to run and I hadn't sent my Wobbuffet forward at that point. Quick Balls are my new favourite ball now.

ThePlaya September 20th, 2007 3:02 PM

its defenitely palkia but dialga if diamond...but i dont have diamond only pearl so its palkia...he only took me 1 pokeball!!!so freaking easy

~*!*~Tatsujin Gosuto~*!*~ September 20th, 2007 3:16 PM

Uxie, Giratina and Palkia. Reason for Uxie is because I got it into low HP and threw an Ultra ball at it and it was caught. Giratina and Palkia were easiest because I used a Master ball. the following week after capturing Giratina I gotten a shiny one on GTS



:t354:TG

Sobær September 21st, 2007 4:02 AM

I voted for Dialga. I hit him to get him in the yellow, threw two Ultra Balls, and that was it. Uxie was easy for me as well, but the other non-roaming one was a pain, I think I eventually just got mad and killed it. xD

Zet September 21st, 2007 4:19 AM

Dialga was the easiest. Only took two ultra balls

TB Pro September 21st, 2007 1:27 PM

For Me Uxie and Azelf only 1 Dusk Ball each!They had full health.It was night but.....still pretty cool

ScizorRacer12 September 21st, 2007 1:30 PM

Well
 
Well since I had about 40 masterballs on me it was easy to catch them all.

MyNameMeansForest September 21st, 2007 3:12 PM

All the legendaries get easier. I remember in the older games, I would use at least 15 to catch a legendary, and they were sleeping with only 1 HP or something like that. Diamond and Pearl, it's so easy. Expected much more of a challenge and I got disappointed.
Palkia was the easiest. It's HP was half and I used two Dusk Balls before I caught it, even though it wasn't dusk.

The dawn Witch Lucia September 21st, 2007 3:24 PM

Dialga/Palkia, cause they have a high catch rate.

AnimeDDR110 September 21st, 2007 6:16 PM

one duck ball on giratina, very fun day. also one on regigigas kind of a tie.

Shiny Umbreon September 21st, 2007 7:01 PM

I may be wrong but I think all those (except for Dialga and Palkia) have a catch rate of 3, which means they have the same difficulty to catch. Dialga and Palkia have 30, though, that's why they're easier to catch.

Murky September 22nd, 2007 2:08 AM

Dialga was way too easy for me! Maybe i got lucky.

J.M. September 22nd, 2007 2:19 AM

All it took for me to get Dialga was 1 Aura Sphere and an Ultra Ball... so he was the easiest for me

Regigigas was hardest for me

Evan September 22nd, 2007 7:15 AM

I caught Dialga with ONE timer ball. :-D

Camero September 22nd, 2007 7:43 AM

dialga it only took one ultra ball.

MasterDookie September 22nd, 2007 7:51 AM

Dialga by far, it only took one Great Ball.

Malik September 22nd, 2007 8:22 AM

I caught my Dialga with one Quick ball. First, try! Therefore, Dialga is my easiest caught.

ebuka September 22nd, 2007 8:40 AM

i would not know because i caught diagla having no option and i have to admit i started the game a few ties before i caught it as for the rest i master balled them

Joey the Cockroach September 22nd, 2007 12:31 PM

well, it would have to be Rotom. oh, he's not a legendary is he?

it has to be Dialga. only took 5 turns, used a timer ball, and so it was caught.

Lapras1016 September 22nd, 2007 7:59 PM

Yes Shiny Umbreon you're right, the legendaries all have catch rates of 3 while Dialga/Palkia have 30. That explains why they're so easy to capture. As for the others... uhh... I think it's luck added to low HP and sleep. :P

In my first file for Pearl, it took me just one Ultra Ball for Palkia, one Ultra Ball for Azelf, about three to five Ultra Balls for Uxie...

Crazy Cresselia was so hard, but I made her sleep and HP really low... She kept running away from me until one time... the Quick Ball made it.

Mesprit? Somewhere between easy and hard focusing more on easy. I made it sleep and gave it really low HP, then used Mean Look on it (this was another encounter) and then used either Dusk or Quick Ball. Now I love catching Pokémon at night since the Dusk Ball will work 4x effectively in caves and at night.

Giratina nearly made me insane, though. How many Dusk Balls did I use on it...? 10?

ManaphyLv100 September 22nd, 2007 11:04 PM

Giratina... It only took me three net balls. Oh, and Darkrai in a Cherish Ball

Lady Nicole September 23rd, 2007 12:13 AM

Palkia was by far the easiest. It only took me one Ultra Ball. All I did was use use False Swipe until it had one HP, then I sent it to sleep, threw the ball and it got caught. Palkia and Dialga have the highest catch rate in that list. Their catch rate is 30, whereas the others only have a catch rate of 3.

Jack_Maddocks September 23rd, 2007 12:59 AM

Palkia bacause of its catch rate lol

Legendary Squirtle September 23rd, 2007 5:15 PM

Diagla was the easiest for me. All I did was attack it once and then threw the Dusk ball after it, and I caught it.

Lumine September 24th, 2007 1:43 AM

I dunno if it this was pure luck but I caught Uxie after 2 Ultras XD

shalashaska September 24th, 2007 4:32 AM

i caught palkia at the very beginning of the battle with a quickball

El Gofre September 24th, 2007 8:04 AM

Barely any1 else will say this but its cresselia. i found a method gettin i the same spot as it easily and caught it in 5 mins tops. i know there are people who will catch stuff quicker but for a roaming poke and without a master ball, i think i did good :)

Omerta September 24th, 2007 12:59 PM

Easiest? Since I used cloned Master Balls on most of them, they were all pretty easy. But the easiest would probably have to be Giratina. I just used a Master Ball right away, and getting to it was easier than I would think.

brotlov September 24th, 2007 6:28 PM

i don't know, i caught Giratine in one turn with a quick ball, caught Palkia in 1 turn in an Ultra ball, so one of those, i got lucky this game

fredlocks September 24th, 2007 6:35 PM

Palkia and Cresselia because I used masterballs and the hardest is the emotions xD

Random September 24th, 2007 6:49 PM

Diagla was really easy for me, it took only one ultra ball to catch it.

Gymnotide September 24th, 2007 7:41 PM

True story.

It took me one Heal Ball on Palkia, not even touching it with any of my Pokermanz. Yes, I like matching my Pokeballs with the Pokemon.

Regigas and Heatran are runner ups. Cresselia would be a runner up too, but it was very hard to finally buckle down and try to capture.

I think the hardest was Giratina or Azelf. I haven't caught Mesprit yet because I don't really like it and I don't want to waste time trying to capture it.

luckyCHARMS September 24th, 2007 7:54 PM

girantina for me. i didnt do any damage on it nd threw a dusk ball on the first turn nd it stayed in. *wus like wtff?!* lOl

shadow_darkurai October 3rd, 2007 1:39 AM

Ársa October 3rd, 2007 1:48 AM

Palkia and Dialga...... 1 dusk ball on both and that was that..:)

I even got Modest 31 IV's Sp. Atk and Speed on my Palkia....:)

~M51

darkgamerGS October 3rd, 2007 8:36 AM

Easiest for me was Palkia. Weakened and one Ultraball... are Dialga/Palkia supposed to be that easy to catch?

Togefan October 3rd, 2007 5:32 PM

diagla and giratina..diagla took me 1 ball and girantina took me 2..

Skelter October 3rd, 2007 5:35 PM

Definitely Dialga.....i had harder times catching bidoofs.....

Skymin October 3rd, 2007 7:11 PM

Dialga (or Palkia). It's got a high catch rate. Took me about.. 3 Ultra Balls.

Shem October 4th, 2007 6:32 PM

cresselia and mesprit
masterballs ftw

MUSION October 5th, 2007 5:53 AM

I haven't got all the way through yet (have 7 badges), so I've only caught Palkia, Uxie, Azelf and Mesprit.

Palkia and Azelf both took 2 balls to catch, but I'd say Azelf, why:
Palkia - Catch rate: 30 - Ball used: Net Ball
Azelf - Catch rate: 3 - Ball used: Luxury Ball

Hardest was Mesprit because it flees and because I decided to catch it the hard way instead of using one of my masterballs. Just for fun!

bobmarleypeople October 7th, 2007 9:16 AM

XD Palkia was really really REALLY easy to catch. I literally just threw a dusk ball at it (It was night) and it was caught. I'm probably just very very lucky XD

Light_Lugia October 7th, 2007 4:02 PM

Dialga was soo easy, about 3 ultra balls... Also, Mespirit was easy too. Less than 10 balls for him. Heatran is the only Sinnoh legendary (not all those rare ones) I haven't caught yet lol.

Xairmo October 7th, 2007 4:52 PM

mine was giratina. i got lucky and caught it on my first ultra ball lol

OMG wow, that's great! :laugh:
You could be a record breaker ;)

Trainer Red October 7th, 2007 10:20 PM

I caught my Dialga with 2 timer balls.

I caught my Regigigas with a masterball on the first turn but I don't think that counts since I used a masterball lol.

MissMegano October 8th, 2007 4:05 AM

When I found Cresselia, I was naive and didn't know it would run. I just threw an ultra ball and caught it. Lucky me!

blitz94 October 8th, 2007 10:37 AM

Dialga for me. Caught it with the fist Ultra ball.

Xairmo October 8th, 2007 9:23 PM

hehe i know, once i caught i like ran around my house screaming, my parents thought i had finally lost it XD

it was just so exciting, i mean what are the chances of that happening?

Apathetic_Yen October 17th, 2007 7:09 PM

dialga, palkia, girantina, heatran, and regigigas. don't know why, they were just easy. And Girantina and Regigagas were both caught with one ultra ball each

Ripper October 17th, 2007 8:03 PM

Dialga for me. I used one Flamthrower which got him down to about 1/3 health and burnt him. It took one DuskBall.

msdmario October 18th, 2007 3:53 AM

Dailga was just lol to catch. It's ridiculously high catch rate made it easy for me to catch with the first Dusk Ball.

The only other legendary that was easy to catch was Heatran. I used Earthquake which was lucky enough to bring it down to the red zone and then caught it with the first Ultra Ball which was even more lucky.

Blake55 October 21st, 2007 4:45 PM

Mine was palkia i caught it on the 2nd ultra ball.
