  • Like, if you see GCPM's video of catching the Chicken ice/dragon legendary Pokemon. How many Poke/Great/Ultra/Dusk/Quick/Timer balls have you wasted by catching some other pokemon like, the little cat Victini, the Robot Gensect, the Fire Dragon Reshiram, the Electric Dragon Zekrom, The Mighty dogs Cobalion, Terrakion, and Virizon?
    You need to fill those:
    Spoiler:

    The legendaries are:
    Victini
    Cobalion
    Terrakion
    Virizion
    Reshiram
    Zekrom
    Thundurus
    Tornadus
    Landorus
    Kyurem
    Keldeo
    Meoletta
    Gensect
    (can someone move this to pokemon gaming central? or it is the wrong place?)

  • Which Legendary was hard to you?
    Kyurem (chicken ice/dragon ;)), it took me way too long to get him...
    Which Legendary was easy to you?
    Deffinatelly Terrakion, I had much luck that time :)
    How many Balls did you wasted at the hard legendary Pkmn? around 200 poké balls and 50 Ultra Balls...

    How many Balls did you wasted at the easy legandary Pkmn? And which ball? I wasted around 3 great balls and 1 ultra (it was a really quick catch, but I had much luck :D)


    I Don't know if you guys had the same experience as I had, but for example Reshiram (or Zekrom if you had pokémon White :P) Was really easy to catch (no I didn't use the master Ball on him), but Kyurem took me a loooong time. And by the way, every legendary has (almost) the same catch rate, it's just depending on how much luck you have if you don't use a master Ball :P

  • Which Legendary was hard to you?

    The hardest for me was Virizon.

    Which Legendary was easy to you?

    Kyurem, actually.

    How many Balls did you wasted at the hard legendary Pkmn?

    Around 30+ Ultra Balls actually. Just as I was about to reset, I caught it.

    How many Balls did you wasted at the easy legandary Pkmn? And which ball?

    4 Dusk Balls. My highest level pokemon was a Metang that I had just caught outside (level 65) and it still knocked it out with three Dragon Pulses. Sent out my Zekrom, barely lived the Glaciate and caught it. XD It took damage well actually; Explosion only took about 1/3 of its health. No status too (I don't have a pokemon with paralyzing/sleeping). I was so surprised...

    Hardest was probably Virizion.
    Which Legendary was easy to you?
    Kyruem was surprisingly easy for me.
    How many Balls did you wasted at the hard legendary Pkmn?
    Too many. Maybe 10-15 ultra balls, 10-15 great balls, 2 quick balls, I can't remember the others :P
    How many Balls did you wasted at the easy legandary Pkmn? And which ball?
    I threw a heal ball and it got out, then I threw an ultra ball and caught it :D

  • legendaries are all pretty easy to catch for me anyway because usually i have like THE one master ball that random old guy gives you on the games so i always save that one for the legendaries that i may come across...

  • I somehow didn't have any problems with catching legendaries in BW what kinda surprised me...
    The toughest was probably Tornadus but still I attacked him twice and then put him into sleep and overally I caught him on third attempt o.O
    I caught Cobalion on my first try after soft-reset (EH?! O.O), Virizion maybe on 3-4 attempt and Terrakion as well.
    God bless Dusk Balls, they save you TONS of Ultra Balls.
    Also Kyurem was kinda hard, but still 3 attempts and he was mine.

  • Which Legendary was hard to you?: Terrakion and Virizion. It took a while for me to get ones with good Natures and IVs.

    Which Legendary was easy to you?: Cobalion. I caught it in the first Great Ball I threw at it.

    How many Balls did you wasted at the hard legendary Pkmn?: IDK, a lot.

    How many Balls did you wasted at the easy legandary Pkmn? And which ball?: Like I said, I caught Cobalion in the first Great Ball.

  • Which Legendary was hard to you?
    Probably Thundurus mainly because I had to go and find it first.
    Which Legendary was easy to you?
    Zekrom was super easy probably because it is as easy to catch as Onix or Beedrill.
    How many Balls did you wasted at the hard legendary Pkmn?
    Not that many, not more then 20 really, it seems easier this generation.
    How many Balls did you wasted at the easy legandary Pkmn? And which ball?
    I caught Zekrom first shot.

  • Which Legendary was hard to you?
    Tornadus and Thundurus, but only because they ran away too much :|
    Which Legendary was easy to you?
    All of them :|
    How many Balls did you wasted at the hard legendary Pkmn?
    Like... maybe five regular Pokeballs :|
    How many Balls did you wasted at the easy legandary Pkmn? And which ball?
    No more than ten regular Pokeballs each :|

    I only use regular Pokeballs :|

    No legendary in Gen V was hard for me to catch. The story would be different if we were talkin' Gen IV here(Damn you Lugia, I will get you!). {(:|) That was needed, or else that line would have felt left out, being the only one without a smilie and all}
