Still not necessary though, like I said, with enough patience - and enough Poké Balls - you can catch legendaries in regular Poké Balls, and I like to catch all my Pokémon in Poké Balls because I find they look the best.

Either way, I'm with everyone else. I didn't use my MB on a legendary, may as well save it for the chance of running into a shiny pokemon that's capable of killing itself or running away. =p

Or a bidoof, for poops and giggles.

Well, I did end up using my master ball on Zygarde, but Mewtwo was incredibly easy with a dusk ball.

Mewtwo. Zygarde was much harder to catch, at least for me. The main reason I used it on Mewtwo is because the Master Ball has an M on it and Mewtwo start with an M. So I used it on Mewtwo.

I could have captured it with a dusk ball, but wanted it in the Master.

You can re-fight him?! I was in the same situation as you. I could throw an ultra ball, but all of my pokemon would faint, or throw the master ball.

I think in X and Y all the legendaries are quite easy to catch... you can catch them with some great balls and ultra balls. The bird legendary is in a cave so I used a dusk ball. I'd save your master ball for a lucky shiny encounter :)

My opinion is that Master Ball is only for Mewtwo, in any game. It's really the only Pokemon the ball looks good on, and I know a lot of ball snobs who even hate that I use Master Ball on Mewtwo, lol! But come on, it even has an M on it!

Sweet. Thanks for the replies! Well seeing as I've already caught all the legendary Pokemon except for Articuno (such a pain in the ass) I guess I'll be using it on a shiny :)

I haven't used the master ball since Gen III. This is because I've never found a reason to use it. You get it free, once in the game. To get more, you have to be insanely lucky (lottery's a b**ch). I'd say, save it for that shiny that you'll never encounter, that happens to know a self-destructing move or an escaping move (i.e. Whirlwind). Or you can spam it on a legendary and soft-reset for perfect IVs.

^That comment made my night XD.

Anyway, I would say, save it...we still don't know if we're getting something like a pokemon Z which may have roamers or if there is going to be new games compatible with X and Y with roamers and then you can trade it from one game to the other. I still have mine in my bag, plus another I got in the lottery. Still saving them for those scenaries or for a suicidal shiny. *Graveler I'm looking at you ¬¬'*
