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 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.
|
What?! I wasn't aware something like that can happen...
btw, Suicune >> Raikou
|
lol owned :D
ah pokemon..how I miss thee.

I need all 3 to get HoOH TT

evan you're hella funny man rofl!!!!
|
|
|
Raikou is the only one on gold that i don't have and can catch, the others are all trade with item and no one i know has the game. i have him fake attacked tho, he has 1hp. just gotta find him again...
|
I dont remember, are the legendary birds on there too?
|
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

Nah those u gotta trade. Gold/Silver/Crystal u can't get those T_T
by birds u mean the elctric/fire/ice bird rite? then no.
|
|
|
predicting where they go is a bitch
gdaMN >:O
glglgl!
|
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.
|
my fave places for catching them were next to the cow rancher and the original town place cos they were so close to the fly points
|
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?
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!
|
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.
|
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!!!!"
|
FUCK my emulator fucked up and something HORRIBLE HAPPEND!!!
I think I'll reset lol... luckily I think I saved when he's at 1hp so it's all good.
|
Okay phew... it's all good, and I did find him again.
So go ultra ball baby!
|
|
|
Chang of plan.
I will make a new Dragonair or maybe possibly a Dragonite w/ enough speed and thunderwave to paralyze it first. How do you get a Dragonair you ask?
Step1:
At night time, go here from thron city:
Fish at the pond w/ super rod. To get to the pond, go far right while jumping down. Couple Magic Carps later...:
|
You can also pick up a 15 lvl Dratini for free from that sage in the Dragon Den. At least on the gameboy version of Crystal you can.
|
Just save state before you throw the Pokeball, reload the state if it misses, repeat.
Or just pump your Parasect up with some good ol' Carbos.
|
Even though I'm trying to train my dragontini I still went wondering around hoping to get lucky.
and I was!

My parasect is full of Carbos lol(lvl 46 w/ astonishing speed of 56)...
I'll try to see if I can save the state, good call.
|
HAHA YOU GOT THE BASTARD NOW~
|
save state=cheating!
just keep throwing ultra balls, you'll eventually get him
|
|
|
SON OF JOR-EL, KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!
|
hey u guys, when should I hypnotize again? Can I keep him chain hypnotized?
|
I'm surprised you haven't done the save state trick yet. It isn't really ethical if you want to be legit about everything, but it works.
EDIT: No, you can't keep him chain hypnotized iirc. I'd suggest switching out for a new hypnosis every 2-3 turns or so.
|
I didn't know the States can be saved lol... I thought it was randomized each game at start up...
Oh yeah btw he woke up.
|
Oh nozie I gotta go to my guitar lesson now... I'd have to lay the quest for some other time.
T____________________T
IT WAS SO CLOSE! 3 SHAKES!
|
you'll never be a pokemon master if you keep this up : )
|
Y'know, I think I'm going to pick up Pokemon again just because of this thread. Good luck capturing Raikou. 
|
for emulated versions, get the emerald 386 rom
you can get all 386 pokemon through ruby/sapphire without trading
|
|
|
Dude you gotta hold down a and b on the 2nd shake!!!!
|
Didn't that only work in Pokemon Red and Blue? I remember I used that + a Pokeball to catch a full hp Mewtwo.

Alrite I'm back... like 5 hours later haha. I had my guitar lesson, came back but didn't have time, so I ate
I COOKED MY OWN RIBS(of some other animal) and it rocked.
Anyways then my friends and I went to see a movie, I've just got back.(Hancock, it was rather medeocre... the whole wooo wooo super power shit didn't rly work out, and he's an asshole)
I'll get on w/ training and capturing then! brb!
i'll keep u guys updated.
|
Damn you lvl way faster (less time wasted) by turning on the pokemon march radio to increase encounter rate.
:D
|
Alrite! I've spent the last 40 minutes lvling up a new dragonite, let's see if he's fast enough!
GL!
|
|
|
Oh well, he's done his job!
|
ALrite!! Now i'm closest as ever!
Him Mean Looked(can't escape)
and Paralyzed (maybe hopefully can't roar)
:D
Now it's up to the balls...
I've got him so mad, he forgot about running and starts to fight me!! A good sign1!
|
|
|
UGH!
and again!
He got free again...
But he's FIGHTING now, he's used leer, quick attack, and thundershock so far. He has no intention to roar me away. It's a sign that he's growing fond of PooPooh! :D
|
Fuck for some obscure reason after awhile Raikou mysteriously becomes non-paralyzed... I switched in another pokemon (since he can't escape, or so I think...)
Mean Look/Spider Web/Block
After some research:
A Pokémon trapped by Mean Look, Spider Web or Block cannot switch until the Pokémon that used the move is defeated or switches. If a trapped Pokémon uses Baton Pass, the Pokémon brought out will be trapped instead.
why did I switch T_T
|
Here it goes again!!
He's not roaring me anymore when i'm using crobat, it's a sign! but he's just beating the hell out of me, i gt heal...
Many ultraballs later...
+ Show Spoiler +
|
call hancock asshole...one ... more ... time
the movie was good and ever thought that what you are trying to do might be undoable ?
but keep up the work .. its very entertaining
|
haha hancock only does bad things to bad people so it's no biggy... I kinda want to fly really high like that german girl michael rofl
Anyways no I think all the status ailments stay w/ RaiKou even after it fled... so I'm not sure...
|
eh .. what movie did you watch? ... I remember a french boy looking like a girl called michelle but no german girl :-/
|
Bah it's 2am, ima go sleep now...

You can use TGB Dual emulator which simulates a link cable and runs the rom separately on two different screens. I used it to dupe the Toxic TM by saving state, trading a Pokemon out who had Toxic attached (not learned, but was holding the item), reloading the state, trading it back, repeat.
Fun fun.

When I saw Raiku I was thinking Raichu... I'm such an old school pokemon baller. When they released all the new ones it ruined it for me because I had the original 150 memorized and I didn't get how all these other pokemon could suddenly appear in the Ash Ketchum world. Like they shoudl've had a meteor hit earth or something to explain it but no.... randomly 100s of new pokemon magically appear? No that is BS, and even when I was 11 I couldn't get past that.

I definitely had similar thoughts, only a bit later.
I somewhat know the ones up to gold/silver (250ish I think), the ones after that started feel like pushing it. Especially since a lot of them feel just like old pokemon with new graphics and names.
Brings some memories, yeah. I wasted my master ball on a L40 ho-oh and didn't even know about these dogs back then Not to talk about the L70 lugia... (those two are the other way round in gold)
Good luck with the bird!
|
aww what he ddint catch it yet? TT^TT
|
Wtf i remember fighting Oh-ho or what the fuck its called on Gold version when i were a kid! god weren't it on a roof or something? i loved that game dearly until i sold it when i beated it and bought the new versions :D (im still a pro but i don't play cuz its kinda childish)
