    Giratina was easy-peasy. One Quick Ball did the trick.
    Heatran was stalled while throwing Timers.
    Dialga uhh... Pokéball at yellow.
    Cresselia was surprisingly easy. I managed to do it with a Quick Ball, 3rd encounter, yellow health. Traded it away, though.
    Mesprit is annoying. Not caught yet; 8th encounter. -_-

    I used my friends action replay to get 999 Master Balls. So they were all equally easy.

    I have no patience for catching legendary Pokemon.

    i think it's one of the best things in pokemon games.

    anyway, i caught dialga with 2 pokeballs and heatran i used 10 duskballs or something and giratina was'nt too hard to catch. i never tried to run up mespirit so him i guess it would be.

    Heatran was frustrating I remember, I think I used a master ball on Mesprit out of annoyance.

    Mesprit was the hardest one to capture. The fact that it can run away from battle makes it a daunting foe.
    good thing you can easily catch it with a masterball.

    I wasted my Master Ball on Dialga, because I was going to trade with a friend, and I was at a point where I couldn't leave, so I just used it to speed up the process.

    As far as hardest to catch, I'd have to say Mesprit. I'm trying to use Mean Look with Crobat to keep him in battle, but I haven't run across him yet. As far as Heatran goes, back on my old game, I caught him really easily. One hit with Surf from one of my pokemon got him in red, and then I put him to sleep with Yawn. I think I only used about 12 Ultra Balls, maybe less.
     

    Ezzo!

    The hardest thing for me to catch was Mespirit.
    It kept running away!
    For some reason Cresselia was easier though.

    My hardest was Giritina, I had no Masterballs and after throwing at least 40 Ultra and 15 Dusk, I caught it with a Luxury ball after throwing 10 of them.
