This Sux
 
Why do they only give u one masterball when u can catch (Lugia,Ho-oh,Zapdos,Moltres,ect.) That really sux cuz it'll be harder to catch all these pokemon that we want :'( :'( :'(

Kairyu February 4th, 2004 11:51 AM

lol, isn't it great? No offense, but I think the addition of the masterball in each pokemon game made it too easy to catch legendary pokemon. In a way, they're really not meant to be caught in the first place. I mean, part of the challenge in pokemon is to try and catch them all.

Laprashunter February 4th, 2004 11:58 AM

You DON'T need a masterball to catch any of those pokemons. Personally, I've never used a masterball once playing any of the pokemon games. It's much more fun and challenging catching them with regular pokeballs. It might be frustrating sometimes but I think that teaches you to have confidence in yourself. :)

I've caught all my Legendary Pokemon with a plain ultraball, but some people prefer using masterballs, thats ok, though i'd rather save it for something else.

Furikuri Otaku February 4th, 2004 12:34 PM

I've catched kyrogre,groudon,latios,latias,
rayquazaa,regice,registeel,and regirock
all with a pokeball. A plain pokeball! Aren't i amazing?
I am telling the truth too.Seriously! I save masterball incase i
see a shiny pokemon, i dont care if it's a shiny zigzagoon either.
Cuz i don't have one.

i'm saving my masterball for the ultimate one...=O the deoxys!!! i used ultraballs on everything else.

>O how can you catch those with a pokeball?! i guess it must have taken lots of tries.

SlaveZero February 4th, 2004 2:01 PM

I used pokeballs in ruby also.It's not so hard but you need to be patient.Anyway long time ago (while I still played the Silver rom) I used codes to have unlimited masterballs :(( I was a big cheater then.

Shinin February 4th, 2004 2:31 PM

Deoxys is only level 30, so y use the master ball on it? Once in Red i caught a level 37 growlithe at full health with 1 ultraball.

SlaveZero February 4th, 2004 2:35 PM

.....?I catch all Pokemon (well,most of them) that are Lv -40 with one ultraball.In rare cases they manage to get out from the 1st one.

Pokemaster10000 February 4th, 2004 2:52 PM

I never ever used a masterball.... Well maybe in my old games.
But right now.. I don't bother to even get it.
To my suprise I caught all my pokemon in a shot.

DragonTrainer February 4th, 2004 2:58 PM

It's quite easy too catch them with a ultra ball.Heck, I have caught a few with a premier ball, and a plain pokeball :p

Pokemaster10000 February 4th, 2004 3:44 PM

I think Poke and Premier Balls too cheap for me. :cool:

Rift February 6th, 2004 10:09 PM

ill only use the master ball on 1) legendary that run from ya, or 2) the strongest legendary XD but usually i like the chase the runnin legendarys give ya! :laugh:

Nutman February 6th, 2004 10:41 PM

*dreams away*

PokeMaster3000 February 7th, 2004 2:32 AM

Rainbow Islands...

Masterball sux... no challenge in grabbin' the Pokemon with it..... the first time I used it though... I used it when I made a Golduck down to red HP and then.... hehe... I can be weird...

Sorye HK February 7th, 2004 3:26 AM

Hey, I used an ultra ball for all the legendaries
and caught them in one shot! And this pure
luck by the way.

Shinin February 7th, 2004 10:53 AM

I used the Master Ball for Lugia/Ho-Oh in G/S/C (master ball for Lugia in Silver, and master ball for Ho-Oh in Gold) so it would be more challenging to catch the L70 other 1.
In Red, I thought u had 2 weaken a pokemon to catch it with the Master Ball, so i used my Charizard's Earthquake and accidentally killed it -_-... In Sapphire, I used my Master Ball on Rayquaza after running out of every other ball i had...

Furikuri Otaku February 7th, 2004 1:06 PM

I can catch with pokeballs easily. I bought 999 pokeballs so i could get 99 premier
balls. And i put my powerfull pokemon out, use pokeballs till i catch,
and heal if necessary. Easy as pie.

stewie&rupert February 17th, 2004 3:12 PM

i dont have to worry about catching a legendary.i got 99 master balls and i like them because i recently had a hard time catching regice and rayquaza i got really frustaited.master balls r my best friends on this game close to my jirachi.

Scyther5 February 17th, 2004 3:17 PM

My biggest feat was catching my mewtwo with only a Greatball, i used the masterball for one of da birds i think.

Phantom Angel February 17th, 2004 10:12 PM

Well, almost all of my pokemon was catch by pokeball.
*cough* I weaken Groudon and use 1 Ultra Ball on it...it's long time ago. =P

Shadow February 18th, 2004 12:46 PM

I've only used Masterballs on Lugia and Mewtwo. Everything else is simple. I caught Kyogre with a Pokeball by weakening it with my Tentacruel. XD

Hm...are you kidding? o.O
It took me 10 Ultra Balls
I might try with Poke Ball.
*have to buy cluster of pokeballs*

Dugtrio_Mad February 19th, 2004 6:11 AM

I tried to catch Groudon with a ultra ball when it had 1 bar left, but it never even struggled. I only had a normal pokeball after using all my ultras but the normal pokeball caught it in one. There is somthing wierd with that pokemon...
