    The Master Ball is the best ball to catch anything, but logically speaking, just use an Ultra or even a Great. Use a Pokeball if you weakened it.
     
    I'd say ultra or dusk ball, but Murkrow isn't necessarily rare, just use a pokeball if you've got one.
     
    Or get some quick balls and catch it at the begining of the battle. Seems better and quicker.
     
    Quick ball work well for the first time, many pokemon can be caught easily using that ball on first turn, or use dusk ball
     
    Try Dusk Balls at night they have x4 the normal catch rate Unltra Balls only have x3 and Quick Balls only have x3 for the first 5 turns
     
    ill say a dusk ball cuz its a dark pokemon
     
    Everyone's saying to use a Dusk Ball on it... Doesn't Dusk Ball only get 4x catch rate if it's night time or in a cave? Won't it just be like using a normal pokeball if it's during the day? Unless... is Murkrow caught in a cave?
     
    Dusk Balls have nothing to do with the Pokemon Type. They're most effective at nighttime or in caves. I think Murkrow can be caught at night, but I've never seen it in a cave.

    You can use Timer Balls (I'm quite fond of those). They work very well for hard-to-catch Pokemon; I caught all three Regis, Rayquaza, and a few D/P legendaries with them. It should be pretty effective if you have a little patience. Just don't wait so long that it'll have to use Struggle and knock itself out. I made that mistake once... stupid Regirock...
     
    My prefer balls are:
    Duskballs(I carry like 400 of these)
    Quickballs(Again, 400 of these)
    Nest Balls(I carry around 130 of these)
    Repeat balls(130 of these)

    I usually carry these with me all the time, with these things you can pretty much catch everything without a problem.
     
    *cough* I thought that Murkrow was the Diamond counterpart of Misdreavus...? My point, it can only be seen at night in the Eterna Forest, therefore dusk ball is the best choice.
