ever caught a legendary with a regular pokeball?

When I played Platinum, I forgot to turn on my 999x Master Ball code.

And at that time, Mesprit has wandering in the Route I'm walking in.
When I get to battle with it, I realized that my Pokeballs Pocket is almost empty-
except that there was 1 Pokeball. Of course, I wouldn't wanna waste my chance so I threw it.

I was suprised. I caught Mesprit without having to damage it with a almost useless Pokeball.

It's awesome, I suppose.
 
Yeah...
Way back when I was playing Gold, I was trying to catch Ho-oh using Ultra Balls. After using about 30 of them (yea I came prepared) that didn't work, I got frustrated and threw a Pokeball, and it somehow worked.
 
Have you ever caught a Legendary in a normal PokeBall?

Or a Premier Ball or any other Ball with a similar low catch rate as the standard PokeBall.

I don't know if Dialga and Palkia should count seeing as their catch rate is the same as Chatot lololololol
 
Pretty sure back in the day of Yellow I caught a Zapdos or maybe even a Moltres in a Pokeball. They were on about 3HP but I was still shocked.
 
I remember when I caught Suicune on Pokemon Colosseum with just a Pokeball. I don't remember any other times, though.

Edit: Oh right. I also caught Latios with a Premier Ball. It was quite funny.
 
Pokemon Crystal, Lv.60 Ho-Oh, Full Health, one PokeBall, didn't even use a status-effect move.
 
Yup, I caught an Uxie on a Pokemon Diamond ROM with a PokeBall once. After having thrown a bazillion Dusk, Ultra and Great Balls.. ~.~
 
I've caught the following in a PokeBall:

Entei
Palkia
Heatran
Giratina
Azelf
Uxie
Ho-Oh
Groudon
 
Yes. Not many, but a few.

The XD Lugia
Regice
Rayquaza (ran out of every other ball but Poke)
 
I've caught Darkrai in one. That's just about it, though I think I did it with one of the dogs in Colosseum (granted, I used the Infinite Master Ball glitch...).
 
I believe I caught a groudon with a regular pokeball ,since i ran out on everything else at the time.

I caught a giratina both in diamond and platinum with a premier ball if that still count, it reads that it's the same as a pokeball but different appearance XD
 
Yeah.My trick is to hold A+B.It helps.=P and it was a Dialga in my Platinum
