I caught mine in an Ultra Ball.

But I wish I had caught it in a Timer Ball.

In FR/LG, you catch Dratini in the Safari Zone. In D/P, you catch it in the water of a cave in Mount Coronet. Sorry it's not specific, all I remember is you have to use Waterfall to get in it.

Why do you people catch Dialga with a Masterball? He is the easiest Legendary in the game to catch. He has a catch rate of 45, all others (and Beldum for some reason) have a catch rate of 3.

Actually, it's 30.

I have Pearl, but I caught a Dialga on my brothers game. I used around 15 Ultra Balls to get it.
Using the Master Ball is a waste on Dialga/Palkia. It has the same catch rate like Chatot and Chansey :/

Some of us are just lazy, perhaps?

30, 45, whatever. That's still ten times as easy as other legends. Cressy is a much better Pkmn to use it on. Dialga/Palkia are a waste of a Master Ball.

I used one ultra ball on it, which was very lucky.
But, I had to restart the game like 50 times. You know how you have to fight that one guy before you fight dialga? Well I apparantley had weak pokemon and he kept killing all my pokemon except for one or two and I didn't have any healing items with me. Then, Dialga kept killing me before I caught it. So just one of the times I restarted, I just threw and ultra right away and it caught it! woot! :)

Dialga was easy. I caught it on 2nd/3rd try with a Great Ball. I thought catching a legendary with a Great Ball was a great feat, but I guess not, since Dialga is easy to capture, and others have used mere Poke Balls... Oh well.
