What ball did u capture the birds in?
 
What ball did u capture the legendary birds in,
Ho-oH - 4th Dusk ball
Zapdos - 4 ultra balls a lure ball then a final lure ball

I am yet to capture the rest so how did you catch them?

umbreon_4_life April 11th, 2010 7:15 AM

Ah, my fellow Umbreon-loving friend! Fancy seeing you here!

As to the question, I still have yet to capture them. I plan on catching them on the 32nd of May. Lol, jk. I honestly don't know when I'm going to catch them.

P.S. I like your long poll at the top! XD

I've only just caught Ho-oh on mine, and am currently travelling to the Pokemon League.
Anyway, I caught my Ho-oh with a Master Ball, as I really need it to help with the Pokemon League.
I think I'll catch the birds with Ultra Balls, as I can catch them when I feel like it, and when my Pokemon are at higher levels, as mine were quite under leveled with Ho-oh.

lamby101 April 11th, 2010 11:35 AM

Just caught Lugia with a heavy ball :)

Raidon April 11th, 2010 12:07 PM

I caught Ho-Oh with a Pokeball which is quite lucky since I was about to use my Master Ball and also it is shiny as well so I'm happy. :].

PS: I used about 100 Soft Resets to get it shiny, thank God. :].

alisaie April 11th, 2010 12:07 PM

Lugia: Ultra Ball
Zapdos: Ultra Ball
Moltres: Ultra Ball
Articuno: Net Ball
Ho-Oh: Pokeball

All while talking to someone in the mist of catching 'em. c:

vamkatt April 11th, 2010 12:08 PM

I caught Lugia with a Masterball, but I caught Zapdos with an Ultra Ball.
After weakening it to at least low orange and throwing several Ultra Balls I then caught it. (: If it works on Zapdos it should on (maybe) Ho-oh, Articuno and Moltres.

ggctuk April 11th, 2010 12:35 PM

Ho-Oh - I think in HG I used a Masterball.
Zapdos, Articuno, Moltres - Timer Balls
Lugia - I know for certain I used a Master Ball here. Good ol' Emerald Cloning Glitch plus Pal park...

Youngster Joey April 11th, 2010 12:40 PM

I tried to fight them, but they defeated my Rattata :(

But your Rattata is in the top percentage of Rattata!

pockeyfox April 11th, 2010 5:10 PM

As I type this, I am trying (And failing miserably) to catch Lugia in a Premier Ball.

TrilbyMenetti April 12th, 2010 4:17 AM

I've only caught Ho-Oh currently, but I caught it after trying five Ultra Balls (out of the thirty I owned) and three Dusk Balls (out of the five I owned).

So in conclusion, Gold the Ho-Oh now rots away in a Dusk Ball, sitting in the PC. He doesn't get used like he did back in my Gold game.

Haha, nice XD

But I thought your Ratatata was Top Percentage!?

EJ April 12th, 2010 5:56 AM

I thought your Rattata was like no other!

My current status including all my games:

Ho-Oh: ultra/master
Articuno:dusk
lugia: master
zapdos: N/A
moltres: N/A

Totodile! April 12th, 2010 6:09 AM

Got Lugia and Ho-oh both with Heavy balls xD
If my memory doesn't lie I got Lugia with 3 heavy balls and Ho-Oh with 8 :]

Umbreonic Aura April 12th, 2010 5:14 PM

T_T got Lugia 3 wobbles in a nest ball!

Master Kavar April 12th, 2010 5:46 PM

ive caught all my legandary birds with my trusty ultraball and ive caught every other legandary possible in the HG/SS games except Rayquaza! C:

jolteon. April 12th, 2010 5:53 PM

Lugia: um, about 25 pokeballs.
Articuno: 35-40 pokeballs.

Planning on catching everything with pokeballs.

shotodrewku April 13th, 2010 12:32 PM

I need help desperately
 
I'm in the process of capturing articuno. Only problem is, it won't catch. I've had its healthy down to a point where you could barely even see it, and had it asleep, and i went through just under 30 ultra balls and it wouldn't catch. I've attempted multiple times and it never catches. Is my game glitched or something cuz I caught Mewtwo using just ultra balls and it didn't take nearly this much. Help?

Kip April 13th, 2010 12:47 PM

So far...

Articuno - Ultra Ball
Mewtwo - Ultra Ball (not a bird, but still a legendary)
Moltres - Ultra Ball

And by far the strangest...

Lugia - Nest Ball

:\ Your guess is as good as mine. Nest Balls are designed for weak Pokémon under Lv. 20. I suppose I got lucky.

Master Kim April 13th, 2010 1:24 PM

Ultra Balls for all three.

Tombstone975 April 13th, 2010 10:00 PM

Caught every legandary with Ultra Balls.
I used my Masterball on Mewtwo considering he was the last one left.

Guillermo April 14th, 2010 12:39 AM

Ho-Oh was a Pokeball, and I haven't encountered any of the other birds yet. I got Raikou in a Pokeball too, however.

インフェルノの津波 April 14th, 2010 6:07 AM

All in Dusk Balls in my first Playthrough, all at night.
