    best i could come up with is

    Bisharp
    -False Swipe
    -Thunder Wave
    -Thief
    -Double Team

    anyone got anything else?
     
    I simply use my Samurott:
    -Surf
    -Blizzard/False Swipe
    -Grass Knot/False Swipe
    -Megahorn/False Swipe
    Any one of Samurott's coverage moves can be dropped for False Swipe on occasion.
     
    Golduck, red health, use soak and net ball works pretty good. But I usually just use Zangoose to false swipe them, most pokemon don't need a status problem to get a one ball catch.
     
    Either my Breloom or my Smeargle. The only thing I need to point out about their movesets is that they both know Spore which has 100% accuracy and puts the Pokemon to sleep.
     
    I just use my good old False Swipin' Scyther. Works a treat. Legendaries are kinda different, though, because my Scyther's not especially strong, and nor is False Swipe. With Legendaries I tend to wing it and maybe hit it with a Sleep Powder from Lilligant.
     
    Meh, most wild pokemon dont need status conditions to be caught. When im catching i use tm false swipe on haxorus, while battling tm earthquake.
     
    I use a Parasect with False Swipe/Spore/Sweet Scent/Leech Life.

    I also use a Smeargle with False Swipe/Spore/Recover/Mean Look.
     
    I've never actually used a specific pokémon to get the job done, and normaly, I'll just chuck ultra balls 'cause I don't bother with flalse swipe :P
     
    My own works for both wild and Legendaries.

    Smeargle Lv. 100 @ Leftovers
    Nature: Modest
    Trait: Technician
    EVs: 4 Att/252 Def/252 SpDef
    - False Swipe
    - Thunder Wave
    - Spore
    - Flash

    It was really hard trained, but it's awesome.
     
    I use my Lv. 100 Sceptile that has traveled from Sapphire > Platinum > HeartGold > White. The only important move I have for it when it comes to catching wild Pokemon is False Swipe.
     
    I use two Pokemon in tandem...

    Samurott with False Swipe and Zebstrika (Thunder Wave) or Lilligant (Sleep Powder). I usually inflict the status condition first, then switch to Samurott to False Swipe the target to 1HP, then (if I use Lilligant) switch back to it if the target happens to wake up.
     
    Depends. For normal wild Pokemon I just use my False Swipe Scyther or Gallade. If we're talking Legendaries - in particular roaming Legendaries - I have a more complex approach.

    First of all I'll keep encountering the wild Legendary and False Swiping it with Gallade or Scyther. When it's down to 1HP, I'll send in my Zapdos on the next encounter to Thunder Wave it. It'll then flee; on the last encounter, I'll send in my Crobat to Mean Look it, then ping Ultra, Timer and Dusk balls at the Legendary and usually it's mine within 5 or so balls. It takes a while, but it's a pretty foolproof plan; all the Pokemon I use are Lv.50+ and very quick, so they always get the important hit in before the Legendary has a chance to flee.
     
    Not sure why I didn't move this earlier, oh well! I think I was hoping all the replies seemed specific to B/W, but... they aren't.

    This can apply to more than just Black and White, so you can state your methods used in each generation within Pokemon Gaming Central.

    Moved.
