Which type of Poke Balls do you use to capture legendaries?
As the title says, i use Ultra balls to capture legendaries.
|
Well 'cause this can apply to more than Black and White, I'm throwing it over to PGC. Plus we've already got that one asking what you used your masterballs on.
I generally use Great Balls, tho. |
I usually use my masterballs for the main legendary of the game. (On the front covers; Girantina, Palkia, Ho-oh, Lugia etc.) and once I've used my masterball, I just use mainly ultra balls and any other spare bals in my bag; which are often just dusk balls or heal balls.
|
So far in black, I used a quick ball and caught tornadus on the first shot!
I caught reshiram in a luxury ball as well as Landorus I caught Kyurem in a dive ball (randomly chucked it lol) |
I use pokeballs...
Joke xD i use Ultra balls and sometimes Great balls when i run out of Ultras :P |
I think Dusk Balls and Timer Balls always work really well. For some reason, I can't bring myself to use Great Balls, Ultra Balls or Master Balls though. :/
|
Usaully anything part from the Masterballs.. On white I caught thunderus in a healball, Zeky in a Greatball and Vintini in a pokeball.
|
pokeballlllll <:
i refuse to catch my pokemon in anything else. |
Well, like everything now outside of Kanto / Johto I mainly use Poké Balls (Great and Ultra balls are only for things in Kanto / Johto, where the balls originate, or pokémon I'm trading away). However, sometimes I use a Master Ball. Mainly when catching Mesprit / Cresselia when I have no desire to use it, or Mewtwo, as to me the "M" means it's for Mewtwo. And if I'm in Hoenn / Sinnoh, I'll use one of that region's exclusive Poké Balls alongside Poké Balls. Except for the Regi Trio in Platinum - I only got them once, and I literally sold everything except my most precious tms in order to buy hundreds of Poké Balls in groups of 10 in order to get Premier Balls - Premier Balls for event legendaries, makes sense right? Oh, did I mention Unova? Well, I'm not sure as I can't use Dream Balls, but I think it may be just plain ol' Poké Balls, or maybe a mixture of the imports from other regions. Who knows? But yeah, I'm very specific. Gone are the days of just lobbing whatever happens to be in my bag! |
I'm super lucky when it comes to catching legendaries with quickballs. :>
|
Heh, I try to catch Legendary Pokemon with just a normal Pokeball, once I caught Dialga on my first shot with a Pokeball!!
|
Pokeballs.
Because anything greater is for noobs. |
I use a mix of Ultra Balls and Dusk Balls. I usually play at the night, so these two are a good selection.
|
It depends. For example, for Groudon I use Dark Balls. For the others, I use quick balls. After, I use ultraballs or chronoballs. But I can also use GreatBalls because I'm lucky with legandaries. I caught Rayquaza with a GreatBalls, all is possible :)
|
I normally use Ultra balls and Dusk Balls (especially if I'm battling a legendary in a cave at night).
I save the Masterball for roamers. The only exceptions would be Dialga, Palkia, and Zekrom whicH I've caught in normal Pokéballs. |
Ultra, Dusk, and Timer are my most popular choices. For a roaming legendary, like [email protected] or Thundurus, I use the Master Ball. And I've caught a few in a Pokeball once. Long ago, I had a challenge where catching Pokemon in a Pokeball was a requirement, including legendaries.
|
I use the Ultra Ball for no specific reason, same with the Timer Ball.
The Dusk Ball's for cave legendaries, and the Master Ball's for roaming legendaries. |
I tend to use a Quick Ball in desperate hope, then give up, wittle it down, and toss Dusk Balls if I can. If it's not in a cave or it's daytime, I bring out the ultra balls. I think I caught one of the Pixies in DPPt with a Timer Ball, though, since it had to have been over 100 turns. <_<
|
I've been capturing them in Heal Balls for the most part. It has nothing to do with me being cheap and liking the pink animation
|
I usually use the master ball for the main legendary of what ever game I'm playing. I'm going to go through my PC and see what balls I used for legendary Pokemon.
Fire red Mewtwo: Master ball Zapdos: Ultra ball Articuno: Ultra ball Moltres: Ultra ball Soul silver Suicune:Ultra ball Raikou: Ultra ball Entei: Ultra ball Lugia: Master ball Ho-oh: Ultra ball Emerald: Kyogre: Ultra ball Groudon: Ultra ball Rayquaza: Master ball Regice: Ultra ball Regirock: Ultra ball Registeel: Ultra ball Diamond Dialga: Master ball Uxie: Ultra ball Mesprite: Ultra ball Azelf: Ultra ball Giratina: Ultra ball Heatran: Dusk ball Cresselia: Ultra ball Regigigas: Dusk ball |
I like to use Pokeballs, Dusk balls and heal balls
|
I feel that it's way more satisfying to catch a legendary in a regular Poké Ball than anything else.
|
I use Master Ball on main legendary that is available before E4 and then I use Ultra Balls and Dusk Balls.
Dusk Balls are pretty effective since most of legendaries are in caves =D |
At PKMN Black, i used a Masterball to catch Tornadus. And Ultraballs to catch Cobalion, Virizion, and Reshiram.
--------------------- At PKMN Heartgold, i used a Quickball to catch Raikou or Entei, and a Masterball to catch Ho-oh. --------------------- Sadly at PKMN Platinum, i got my 1st Masterball and i caught Houndor. =[ |
...For some reason, Poke Balls move for three times while Ultra Ball only once or not at all.
But mostly Ultra Balls and Poke Balls. Rest are for when i ran out of these two. |
