    Giratina for me.

    Dialga/Palkia were fairly easy, Mesprit wasn't too hard, Heatran took a while, but I remember Giratina taking a long time.

    I swear, Giratina could probably break outta Master ball. I used 187 Ultra balls to catch it.

    Heatran was the same O_o

    If you're trying to find her.

    Use the Poketch Marking Map.

    I use Jubilife, and keep zooming through the right side, in and out, till the Shadow Head is in the route.

    It's Mesprit if you hear an upbeat song.

    Cresselia is masked by normal pokemon music, and that thing gave me a heart aatck; I thought it was a normal pokemon there, until my friend told me he released it from the island. I knew I shouldn't have lent him my game.

    Eh, Giratina and Mesprit (and company) and Heatran, as well as Regigigas and Cresselia, have the same catch rate. And they're all ridiculous.

    What I find more annoying is that Beldum (and family) have that same low catch rate. WTF?!

    Just as a measure though, the first time I went for Regigigas, I threw a quick ball to start, then earthquaked him down to a sliver of health, then threw ultra balls and dusk balls and timer balls at him until he actually killed himself with STRUGGLE before I could catch him. That's just too much.

    It would be Mesprit, but I only wasted like 6 ultra balls, so it wasn't too hard, but the others were easy.

    Palkia was easy to catch for me. I just threw a net ball at the start of the battle and it was mine!

    Mesprit is what I chose on the poll, but it took my 5 hours to catch Uxie. I went through 130 Dusk Balls and 57 Timer Balls before I caught it. Afterwards, I just started importing Master Balls.

    When I first go Pokemon Diamond, It took me about 2 hours to catch Dialga~
    When I got Pearl, it took me around the same time for Palkia~
    Now I have Platinum, Origin Giratina was a freaking breeze!!
    Why?
    Heck, who cares!! Im just happy I got him (*Hugs Giratina)​

    I have to say Mespirt It took me a lot of tries and, because it keeps fleeing before you can have a chance to even let me battle.

    Well on my diamond, Dialga I caught with ONE ultraball, Uxie and Azelf gave me a little trouble but nothing to sinister, Mesprit was a little more challenging, I just used my Haunter with mean look, and kept on putting it asleep, then eventually caught it with a net ball??? Giratina, I found it in about five minutes then took me another ten to catch it. But this is where I had trouble........Heatran. It killed me 3 times. at the beginning I had 100 ultraballs, 5 pokeballs, 10 timerballs, 20 duskballs, and 5 luxaryballs. When I finally caught it with an ultraball, I looked at what I had left and I had, 7 ultraballs. THATS IT. Took me four HOURS to catch.

    As a matter of fact, I once fought a Cresselia and missed 150 OR SO FRAKKIN' TIMES!! I had it down to 1 HP and paralyzed. It nearly killed my Rayquaza 4 times because it was just sittin there while I clobbered Cress with ultra balls. You know how it has those retarded moves you can use 50 times? I used false swipe and glare then let Ray defend while I went with the ultra balls. It got out of every single one! In the end, it died from using struggle with 1 HP! RIIIIP OOOOFF!!!
