Caught him with a dusk ball the first time. But when i finally got enough play time for him to show up again, I caught him with a premiere ball. "Real men catch legends with regular pokeballs :D" It was a real pain to do so though.

Went in totally unprepared because I didn't know what to expect and hadn't saved in a long while. Only had about 20 ultra balls and a couple pokeballs haha. After about 10 resets I finally caught it in an ultra ball. :3

Diamond-Giratina was really easy, I caught it on my first try with my fourth Great Ball.
Pearl-For some reason, Giratina was reasonably harder here, simply because I fought it with all level 90s. Caught it on my second try with a Quick Ball.
Platinum-Oh, this Giratina was WAY harder than the last two. I chose Torterra on here, and most of my Pokemon were ground types, so levitate killed me. Caught it on my 21st try with a Timer Ball.
HGSS-I can't read Japanese, but it was still easy to get. I was in the Shinto Ruins or something (Serebii.net gives good translating!) and I picked Giratina.
I have the Arceus for the English version on my Diamond, so I may pick Giratina tomorrow. (:D :D :D :D HGSS OUT TOMMOWOW IN ENGWISH!) (That means: HeartGold and SoulSilver out tomorrow in english!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

A Master Ball because I find no joy in weakening a pokemon and taking forever to capture it.

A Master Ball. That crazy phantom/dragon thing is very hard to catch.

A Luxury Ball (with about 1/10 Life, and paralyzed, Giratina was fairly easy)
I try to catch all the Pokemon I can with Luxury Balls (love them for some reason....) costs a
bundle in the end, but worth it for me, especially since I rarely buy anything (except TMs, Full Restores and Revives ><)

Poke Balls are just uglier versions of Luxury Balls :laugh:, which is the best ball ever made (besides the epic Master Ball, which I only used for Cresselia, that dodgy moon)

Timeball. Took a while, but it did the trick in the end.

I caught it with one Pokeball on the first turn.

I was very surprised.

I used a ton of Ultra Balls on all the other legendaries, so I naturally used a Masterball. :3 I needed a break. :P

I used dusk balls, and I carried 70 of them. I went through my entire stock, reset the game and tried again. I ended up using 50 of them the second time before I caught it.

Absolutely ridiculous. -_-;;

I caught it with a Poke Ball. After wasting all my Great Balls, Ultra Balls, and Dusk Balls, I threw a few Poke Balls and got myself a Giratina.

I used an ultra ball. I only brought 11 and I got really mad. But in my relief, caught it in 4 turns.

Timer ball. I went in with 30 ultra balls, 50 dusk balls, like a hundred something pokeballs, master ball, and 15 timer balls. I depleted all my ultra balls and 20 dusk balls before i was like "ok this has been going on so long..." 1st timer ball. I have to say i had a harder time catching Azelf than any other legendary.

I just used my Masterball, as I had used nearly all my other Pokeballs so I just gave up and used it.
