The easiest for me was Mesprit. (The Poke Radar thing on ur watch helps alot) Used a Wobbuffet so it cant escape, Used Hypnosis, False Swipe, used like 10+ Great Balls and got it. Hardest was Giratina, around 25 Ultras, same strategy.

Well, I guess Giratina.... sort of.
First time I battled it I too ran out of dusk balls on it (40 of em UGH) and it drove me nuts that it was on red, asleep, and wouldn't even "wobble" once. I gave up and restarted.
When I battled him again I started off the battle with an ultra ball. First round, first ball, and CAUGHT the darn thing.
I still don't get it.

Girantia just because I kept getting lost in the damn cave, and then I ran out of Ultra Balls (what I use to catch legendaries... I'm old school - what are all these new balls of ridiculousness you speak of?), so I had to reset and go through the cave AGAIN...

I got impatient with Mespirit and wasted my Master Ball. Now I have to get another one for Cresselia :p

I honestly think Cresselia deserves to be there because I had a hard time catching it each time.

The hardest for me was heatran.
everything else was easy but this thing refused to be caught.
it always killed itself by struggle. I had like 50-60 ultra balls at the time and like 20 timer balls. Once it started to struggle i threw timer balls like mad.
eventually i caught it after about 200 tries.

It was pretty irritating when I tried to catch Azlef. I used about 100 Ultra Ball maybe. It took me an hour or 2 to catch the Azlef, but instead, I catched it with a Timer Ball when I started getting mad.

I had a hard time catching Giratina. I gave up after 30 minutes of trying to catch it, so I just threw a Master Ball at it.

Giritina, because I kept chucking dusk balls, and SRing it because we sometimes get into struggle battles or I accidently KO it when I'm trying to weaken it (shoulda had a False Slasher)

Um, I have yet to catch Giratina. I used a Masterball on Mesprit, Palkia, and Heatran. I guess Dialga was the hardest to catch because I wanted him in a Pokeball.

It was harder for me to catch Ditto. ;P

Giratina. When I first met him, I sent out Torterra. Oh boy, it was hard; never succeeded in catching him. But somebody I will...

Okay, I change my mind catching Uxie and Azelf can be pretty tough as well...especially when they use either nasty plot or amnesia...
