4th Gen What Ball Did You Use To Catch Lugia/Ho-Oh?

It got a mini-revival so I'll leave this thread open (as with the red gyarados thread), but please don't bump threads over a month old since the last post.
 
I used Ultra Balls on both of them. To me it just seems that Ultra Balls are the only thing worhty of holding a legendary. That or Master Balls.
 
I saved in front of Lugia, and tried to get its health to red. If I made it faint, I restarted the game. I caught it in a Ultra ball. I soft reset for a shiny Ho-oh and caught it in a Master ball.
 
I didn't, I simply knocked it out, I'm not very fond of catching, or using for that matter, legendaries, they just don't appeal to me (most of the time)
 
I used my master ball on my Ho-oh. I hate master balls now, though so I might use a nicer ball this time. X]
 
Ultra balls defiantly,master balls are so lowered class and aren't useful as they used to be,the only time to use it if you're running a nuzelock run or something and you picked a bad nuzelock to go with it like above author post.
 
I used a Master Ball on both of them (Since I own both HG and SS). They kept popping out of my other balls, so I just threw a Master ball at them to get it over with.
 
I catch all of my legendaries in Ultra Balls. If I'm feeling adventurous, I'll use a PokéBall (which is what I use for regular Pokémon, regardless of how high they are when I catch them). The only time you really need a Master Ball is when you're put in a situation where you're facing a shiny Misdreavus and it uses Perish Song.
 
My Lugia i caught it with my dusk ball, and I buy 49 ultra balls for nothing and then i used a poke ball to catch Ho-oh it worked...then I was like ''49 ultra balls for nothing?''.
 
I used a Heavy Ball for my Lugia. I'm looking at the summary now, I don't get why he has 5 stars for his jumping ability.
 
I used Ultra Ball for both of them... I always use Ultra Balls on Legendaries, sometimes I tried with simple Pokéball but actually I'm not really lucky so that never worked. So now, Ultra Balls all the way !
 
Umm.... I... cheated and got 900x masterballs... >o> *cough*
 
Ho-Oh with an Ultra ball, didn't bother catching Lugia.
 
I saved myself the trouble and the effort and just tossed the Master Ball. XD
 
THIS IS MY FAVOURITE POKEMON-CATCHING ANECDOTE.

It actually was the first time I ever caught a legendary without resetting. I tossed a Pokeball and two Heavy Balls, and caught Lugia on the last. I WAS TRULY AMAZED.


It was almost as impressive as when I caught a Giratina with one - yes, one - toss of a Pokeball. JUST ONE POKEBALL.

But I have little love for Platinum, and that was on my friend's game and not mine, so I hold the Lugia catch much closer to my heart! :'D
