    Okay, I am trying to catch Entei with ultraballs, but it seems impossible as he always uses roar. Is there any way to stop it from using roar? I know putting it to sleep might work, but I don't have a pokemon with mean look, and the other trapping moves and moves that put pokemon to sleep... Anyone know a good strategy to catch entei without using a Masterball?

    Technically, there is no way to stop it from using roar, but there is a way to prevent roar from working(^^). Put a pokémon with the ability 'Soundproof' at the front of your party then put it to sleep by whatever means necessary

    Pokémon with ability 'Soundproof': Voltorb, Electrode, Mr. Mime, Whismur, Loudred, Exploud
     
    Thank you! I was thinking about sound proof, but I thought it was a dumb idea, so I just dropped the idea. I have one more ?: Why does roar fail sometimes?

    Sometimes the pokémon isn't affected by roar or the attack misses. Usually when it misses it'll just say 'The attack failed'.

    Also Dugtrio will work as it has Arena Trap, great speed and it has dig.

    Diglett and Dugtrio also have Arena Trap as their abilities (although they need to be at a high level to be effective).
     
    Okay, thanks everyone. This thread can now be closed.
    I caught entei yesterday. :)
     
    I had with quick Mewtwo. Just teached Hypnosis and used it, one Psychic, Ultra Ball and that was it.
