The hardest Pokemon to catch in the Safari zone
 
The question here is : who do you think is the hardest Pokemon to catch in the safari zone in FR & LG?
Well to me the hardest pokemon to find and catch in the safari zone is Kangaskhan. I got so fed up that I had to trade one form my pokemon XD Gale of Darkness game. The second challenge for me was a Chansey because they always fled all the time.

Tauros. Not because they're rarer or run or anything, but because they don't run. They just sit there blowing through your entire stock of Safari Balls, escaping from each one with no more than 2 shakes. Chansey is only a b1tch because of the Lucky Egg.

Eon-Rider March 11th, 2006 8:57 PM

Out of Fr and Lg, the only safari Pokemon I haven't caught is Kanghaskan. She keeps running away.

DratiniLover March 12th, 2006 8:26 AM

I find chansey a challage as well!

battlemaster March 13th, 2006 9:49 PM

Kanghaskan!!!!! You should be given a Net....a Large Net, and then when u got it tied down.....*BAM* it's yours

~*!*~Tatsujin Gosuto~*!*~ March 15th, 2006 12:24 PM

They really should make better balls especially for Kangaskhan.

I think either Kangaskhan or Chansey like you said. But a lot of the time, any pokemon I am looking for never shows up and the ones I am not looking for and are rare, show up. <_<

djvolcom March 16th, 2006 4:41 AM

Dratini or Dragonai, you need like a good rod for those pokemon. but i encounter one, just oo hard to catch

Velsper March 16th, 2006 12:02 PM

^ Agreed.

Dragonair is extremely hard to caputure. :(

However, I also found Kanghaskan and Chansey difficult to capture as well, of course it took me about 2 days to finally capture a Kanghaskan, which I caught using pure luck and persistence. ^^

AuroPervert March 16th, 2006 12:15 PM

Kangaskhan.

She's the only Pokemon I have yet to capture in the Safari Zone, she always runs away.

You only have one chance to catch it when you encounter it.

i caught kangaskan the first time i saw it. dratini are common in one place of water but im yet to see dragonair

Dragonite Tamer March 18th, 2006 1:28 AM

Dragonair is virtually impossible to capture.

saint jimmmey March 18th, 2006 10:38 AM

dragonair is the rarest pokemon to find anywhere in the game...so the fact that it's in the safari zone is just too much!!!

ICouldEatABabyDeer March 18th, 2006 3:24 PM

Kanghaskan, he really ticks me off

Finisher February 26th, 2008 7:59 PM

dratini and Dragonair are pretty hard to find.

Fearless February 26th, 2008 8:10 PM

I always found that Tauros was the hardest to catch...

Skaterzpenguin February 26th, 2008 8:17 PM

I say tauros, kanghaskan and syther are the hardest to catch. ;)

Fearless February 26th, 2008 8:20 PM

oh man, i forgot about syther. I always made a trade to get him...

Gummy February 26th, 2008 8:55 PM

It's a tie between Scyther and Chansey for me. I never even knew Dragonair could be found in the Safari Zone.

Casper88 February 26th, 2008 9:00 PM

Kangaskhan gave me a hard time, but i eventually caught her....Tauros on the other hand was never caught by me up to this day, i always traded for 1.

FourFourTwo February 26th, 2008 9:12 PM

Pinser. Many sadfaces trying to find/catch him.

Halcyon February 27th, 2008 1:54 AM

I think it's all about luck.

I say Chansey is the hardest pokemon to catch.

BeachBoy February 27th, 2008 2:23 AM

3 huge and main candidates for me...

1) Dragonair - a real pain

2) Chansey - infamous in hard capture

3) Scyther - hard one, very hard one

Lynnx February 27th, 2008 3:03 AM

Kangaskhan, Chansey, Pinser, Scyther, Dratini/Dragonair and Tauros are virtually impossible to catch for me. When I catch one, there is no way to catch the others. I caught a Kangaskhan on my first try and in around 4 games have only caught Chansey once.

♣Gawain♣ February 27th, 2008 5:19 AM

Kangaskhan, Scyther and Dratini. Yup there very rare...

Galaxy1 February 27th, 2008 6:02 AM

Kangaskhan I can never find it, and when I do it's impossible to catch. I've had better luck with Chansey.

Tanro February 27th, 2008 7:46 AM

Kangaskhan It keeps running away as soon as I through the first ball.

pkmnfreak84 February 27th, 2008 9:16 AM

Kangaskhan runs constantly.. I've seen it about 10 times total just.. never can catch it.
Chasey is hard to find *and* catch
sadly.. I've never even seen a Tauros in the wild.. just that one trainer pair on one of the Sevii islands that has the Tauros/Miltank combo.

I actually saw a Dragonair once, fishing in the water hole in the first area, it got away though.

angelsdontkill February 27th, 2008 9:30 AM

Chansey is hard but I caught it the 2nd or 3rd time I saw it.

Kangaskhan, on the other hand, I've seen MANY times, but can never nab it.

lostprophetsown February 27th, 2008 11:13 AM

ive never had any problems trying to catch anything in the safari zone ive only used a max of 4 pokeballs chansey was a real son of a bi.....cow in pokemon red,blue,yellow but not fr lg

Azonic February 27th, 2008 2:15 PM

I agree with everyone who says that Chansey and Kanghaskan are the hardest.

I find them a challenge even to find in the first place. But catching them can make me very aggravated as well. Even with the Sweet Scent glitch, I find it hard to find the two pokemon and often get impatient.

Legobricks February 27th, 2008 3:09 PM

Of the dragons that one must fish for, I think I've only gotten a Dratini in the Safari Zone, and since raised it to evolution.
I seldom venture into the Safari Zone, probably since I'm more interested in capturing all the Unowns in the Tanoby Chambers (once found a shiny X one there, but unfortunately didn't have any balls with me); but like a lot of people my bet's on Chansey, since it often runs no matter what (I've at least been in the Safari Zone enough times to know that).

Crystal Shaymin February 27th, 2008 4:34 PM

chansey..kangaskan was caught in a sarfari ball first throw. it was luck

chansey...well i searched enough time and found em, they ran, etc.
finally found one and got it.

SebastienBlue February 27th, 2008 9:16 PM

Kangaskhan. Rare, run. -.- still haven't got one
