So I was chilling and BAM!
Quickly, i've waited for this moment forever! Go CROBAT!
Mean LOOK!
*Wild Raikou cannot escape now!*
then
+ Show Spoiler +

he used roar T_T
[image loading]

Fuckkkkk!!!
I thought only ENtei had roar T_T
I knew Entei had roar so when I saw it I just masterballed it. I'm on Crystal version so it's easy to catch Suicune... Raikou is my last roaming legendary cats before I can get Ho-Oh.

But since I saw it I can track it w/ pokedex and I'm just keeping it up. He has only 1 hp now from more encounters (2 bites from crobat (2 encounters), a lucky hypnosis from Haunter so I switched up parasect for 2 false swipes before it ran away(another lucky encounter))

Last time just now I tried to hyptnotize him so it'll be sleeping w/ 1hp and good for ball throwing, but no, it dodged it and ran away TT

I'll keep u guys updated.

A tip:
Once you can track these legendary pokemons on ur pokedex, notice how when U go to the route they appear they are notmrally not there anymore? That's because the spawn for these pokemons shuffle whenever you change from one location to another.
Say you move from mt. Motar to route 42. Inside mt. Motar u check maybe it's at route 42, when u get to route 42 it would normally have gone to another place.

So what I'm doing now is shuffling between Mahagony town and Route 42 and each time I stand on Route 42. I hope it shows up on Route 42 the same time. Just like fishing lloll

xD

So far it's on 1hp but I'll need a lucky hypotize to capture it... huk... I have like 200 ultraballs on hand haha

FUCK it ran away again!

Paper the method I use is to shuffle between route 42, Mahogany town, and route 43.
You can't chase it, you can only go to a route, check if it's there(u get lucky), and go grass diving.
Most of the time it won't, so I'd move from route 42 to town to route 43, check, no, route 43 to town to 42, check again.

The method i mentioned above doesn't work I just realized. If I just shuffle between two locations it'll just dart around there and never go near.

Here it is again! I'm tired of missing hypnotize (I was gonna use my parasect for spore which is 100% hit rate but parasect is too slow)
What do I do?

[image loading]

Poll: What should Evan do?
(Vote): Try hypnotize again, worth it
(Vote): Fuck that, throw the damn ultra ball
(Vote): Go die fucking pokemon! atk it!



I'll brb in 10 mins gonna load up my laundry, I'll decide what to do based on the vote.

You have him at like, 4 hp, throw the ball!
The only courage that matters is the kind that gets you from one moment to the next.

How long does it take to get an encounter with it? If you feel you can find him again in a timely fashion then hypnotize him, if not fuck that, throw the damn ultra ball

EDIT: Do you have a decent leveled fast pokemon with a paralyzing move? (an electric with thunderwave?) That would help too because any status effect adds to capture rate.

Holy fuck I am torn between cheering for you catching Raikou or Idra winning Courage. I only have enough man juice for one and this is killing me.
Shorts down shorts up, BOOM, just like that.

Yeah I'm gonna try to lvl up my dragonair again maybe so I can get a dragonite w/ paralizing move.
I deleted my thunderwave on dragonite already cuz well... ice beam is so much more awesome at raping lance haha.

Alrite Ima throw the damn ultra ball just for kick. I could definitely find him again, the encounter rate isn't too good but it is garenteed I think to find him once every 5 minutes, just tedius as hell.

HERE GOES!! "GO ULTRA BALL!!!!"
