    I was just wondering what strategies, if any, people used to catch Raikou and Entei. They proved quite difficult for me and I only caught them after Red.
    I used a smeargle with spore and false swipe and a wobbufet to trap them. It was an alright tactic but ittook a while, any body got any better ones?
     
    I caught Raikou with a regular pokeball.
     
    lucky, I used fast balls on a sleeping raikou with 1HP and it took several encounters before I caught it.
     
    Master Balls. And I'm ashamed to admit it. I traded one in from Diamond around the 5th gym to catch Raikou because I wanted an electric type, and after beating the Elite 4, used my in-game Master Ball to catch Entei just because it was bugging me that I hadn't had him yet.

    Ironically, I was able to catch Latios with an Ultra Ball after just getting his HP down and putting him to sleep, so go figure. :P
     
    ok well i didn't catch them BUT - a little thing about raikou- get it in the yellow AND USE A FAST BALL
    a fast ball in full health almost caught it for me... damn no more fast balls though... now i gotta wait 24 hours for another :(
     
    I've got Entei by random luck of chance when I won the Lottory and earned myself a Master Ball. Then I just randomly incountered him and chuck the Master Ball at him.

    I don't bother with Raikou for now, 'till I beat Red and start working on my National Pokedex.
     
    I got both of them in the Yellow and Paralyzed. I caught Raikou fairly quick with a Fast Ball. Entei was harder. I used the Snorlax from Diglett's Cave to Block it from running and I caught it with one Ultra Ball. This was after about 20 attempts. Raikou only took about 5 attempts.
     
    because i meet it when my pokemon was strong i used not very effective attacks and then sleep it and capture it with pokeballs.
     
    funny thing is i evolved an evee into an umbreon just so i could mean look-baton pass to my sleeper and ended up catching them bothy without using it:(
     
    i stood between 2 routes with grass and went back and fourth between the 2 route untill one showed up on the pokegear.
     
    Well sadly I have never caught a legit Entei or Raikou in any of the G/S/C 'n' Remakes.
    But I tried and nearly caught Raikou and Entei in HG with my sisters Crobat I traded from SS. It used mean look and then I threw a Fast ball and it wiggled 3 times and then it broke free!
     
    with in five mins of them being able to be caught i caught entei with a master ball and it took 2 encouters for raikou but right when i saw him i threw a fast ball and it caught him with full health i think i was pretty lucky
     
    After about six or seven tries, I caught Entei with a dusk ball.

    I had enough of Raikou and caught him with the master ball.
     
    i false swiped them both put entei to sleep and prylz raikou. entei with an ultra and raikou with a fast(it got away and when i saw it next i used the ball on the first turn)
     
    Since I used my Master Ball on Latios, I used Quick Balls. :D Raikou was easy to catch, but Entei took ages (and more than 50 Quick Balls. |:<)
     
    Caught them both in about 3 hours, put them to sleep then there health to 1HP followed by an ultra ball.
    Simple :P
