Did anyone find capturing Dialga and Palkia hard?
This is in Platinum by the way.
I have just recently got dialga and palkia, and for both of them i captured with my first ultra ball:p i was hoping they would be hard to capture like darkrai was and the threee fairies. Also i wish we could of gone to their lair and have to search to find them.( But i guessed that they live in space so yeah:p) Anyone have trouble capturing them? |
do you know if they come bak if you defeat them?

It's something the implemented in Platinum. Anyway, I haven't gotten them on Platinum yet, but I plan on doing it later today.
|
Oh I know, they are extremly easy to catch. They have the same catch rate as a chatot. @[email protected]

Lol, they were so easy for me too. Like max 5 ultras for both.
I found the legendary birds the hardest. Heatran was annoying too -.-". For some reason heatran is really difficult to catch in plat, in diamond/pearl it was really easy =/. I spent 100 dusk balls and 3-4 hours getting all the birds... All wrong natures for competitive battling lol. And I used my master ball on Darkrai ^^. I plan on restarting Plat to get another Darkrai. |
Is it true? Then that's why I got them with only one quick ball on my TT Platinum... On my Catridge one I didn't even got them. might aim for a shiny...
|
Yea i need the birds and heatran.
|
Palkia was a bit hard for me. It took me about 12-20 ultras ti capture it. As for Dialga, it only took me a Timer Ball and 3 Ultras. |
Really, I used a Poké Ball on both of them! I put them in Yellow first, then I threw a Pokéball and I caught them. They were so easy!
|
pfft. master ball for me. :D
|
No, I didn't really find capturing them to be that difficult. I used maybe two or three Ultra Balls on both of them...
|
Not really. It was quite easy for me really. I caught them in a great ball because it was the only kind of pokeball I had at the time. It was probably easier for me because I had my team from diamond with me.
|
I've catched Dialga with a dark ball and Palkia with a timerball
|
I had spear Masterballs from Pearl which I got from Emerald so they were easy to catch =]
:t354:TG |
I just caught them the other day. Dialga took one Ultra Ball (same as in Diamond, I recall). Palkia took three. I lowered both of them to the red, no status effects.
But yeah, they're really easy to catch. Same catch rate as a Chatot? I knew it wasn't hard, but I didn't think it was that easy... |
In Diamond - Surprisingly simple, only 2 ultra balls and that's it (weakened it first, btw).
In Platinum - Took me FOREVER, considering it's lvl 70. I used 142 ultra balls to catch it, and it was red health (GRRRR!!!!) |
They both have a catch rate of 30, which is 10 times as high as Giratina so a quick ball each was enough for me.
|
were do you find em to catch em?
|
I found it rather simple. Though I used a Master Ball on Dialga, I used a Dusk Ball on a red hp poisoned Palkia. Caught it first try.
|
Very easy. I got Palkias health down to half and i got it on my 2nd Net ball i threw.
|
Easy on my end as well. Got Dialga down to the red and it only took one Dusk Ball.
I had bought about 50 of them too. xD |
Dialga took 3 quick balls and Palkia only took 1, no hax, just some crazy-insane mashing of "a"
|
No, I just used a masterball to catch Dialga.
|
Not really no. I just waited til night time then used Dusk Balls.
|
I haven't caught either of them yet in my Platinum version but I did find Dialga very easy to catch in Diamond. It only took me 1 Dusk Ball to catch it at night after I got its health to red.
|
Yeah, they were easy. Only took like maybe around 5 minutes for each of them, but that's including weakening them down and catching them.
|
Piece of cake, caught them with one dusk ball each.
|
It was hell easy, legendaries aren`t hard to capture at most times.
|
Same for me.-Dialga was 2 Dusk,-Palkia 1 Ultra 2 Dusk Balls, both were caught at night, of course. Yet Giritina took me 28 Dusk Balls...
(According to the Chatot thing, Dialga and Palkia DO have a Catch Rate somewhat like a Chatot's) |

I tossed an Ultra Ball at him. He didn't really resist.
|
I lost my first platinum (Gettting another one btw), but here it is:
Diagla - x1-3 Utra Balls Palkia - x1 Dusk Ball |
They weren't that difficult. I caught Dialga and Palkia with several Ultra Balls.
What was most difficult for me was Mesprit. |

Problem solved. |
Am I the only one who caught them with a mere Poké Ball. o.o
|
Of course they're hard. Not for me though. I use Master Balls. ;)
|
They have the highest catch rate of all legendaries.. I threw a few ultra balls each and they were caught. Easy.
|
LOL i still cant believe how easy they were to catch :p
|
Not at all. I caught Dialga with 2 Ultra Balls, and Palkia for some reason took slightly more at four Ultra Balls.
|
nah just chuck a master ball at 'em
and viola' you just caught a legendary pokemon!! but thats on my diamond version |
I don't think palkia or dialga are that hard to catch. The three lakes and Cresselia are the irritating ones to catch because they are flaky and flee all the time. Giratina even puts up more of a fight than the two dragons.
|
I caught both of them in Pokeballs.
So, I would say their not that hard to catch. |

I caught Dialga with one Dusk Ball.
It was night and it's a cave so it worked out well. Palkia was with a few Pokeballs and Giratina took a Great Ball. |
My Dialga on my Diamond was easy to catch, I don't remember how many Pokeballs it took me to catch it, though. All I remember is that I caught it in a Heal Ball.
|
pfft, with 100% Catch Rate I got them in Quick Balls, just for looks. If I wanted to trade them I would have caught them in Pokeballs, but I wanted to keep them.
Almost everything I have is in a Pokeball. *pats AR* :3 |
Yep, I am the only guy who caught them in a normal Poké Ball.
|
No they weren't that hard to catch at all.
Dialga-5 Dusk Balls Palkia-2 Dusk Balls |
nope just weakend it then frew a timer ball(lol noobish legends)
|
It was painfully hard for me to catch the three lake Pokemon.
I threw 72 Ultra Balls at one, ran out, threw ONE Great Ball, BOOM. Caught. I was banging my head on the wall. |
I didn't have normal Pokéballs at that time.
For Dialga: 2 Ultraballs and 1 Duskball For Palkia: 1 Duskball Those two were the legends easiest to catch for me (I wanna know their exact catch rate now *goes to bulbapedia* ) In Pearl it took me 1 Ultraball. Edit: I take back what I said about Palkia and Dialga being the easiest...I just caught Giratina a minute ago and all it took were2 Duskballs ( fortunately...these were the only ones I had with me) |
