<will eat your kids
Well, Ive had COUNTLESS battles with groudon...enough to even encounter his shiny version...and still...cant.....cath...him... Ive used almost 200 ultra balls, lulled him to sleep 3 times, and many other thing....and still cant catch him. If you can tell me where there is another ultra ball besides the lottery and the aqua base, please tell me.

EDIT: Im playing emerald so hes level 70 right now.

No other Master Balls that I've ever heard of... I suggest getting a False Swiper to raise up specifically for assuring yourself he has 1 HP, then make him sleep and start chucking the Ultra Balls... Good luck.
 
first of all, what is a false swiper? and where can I get him?
 
A false swiper is a Pokemon that uses the move False Swipe. Examples are Sceptile, Zangoose, Nincada, Farfetch'd, Marowak, Scyther....

In case you didn't know, like Laoin said, False Swipe will always leave the opponent's Pokemon with at least 1 HP. You can't kill with it. That's why it is the ideal move for catching wild Pokemon, because you don't have to worry about accidently killing them.

For your situation, Breloom is a good choice, seeing as it gets False Swipe (by breeding) and Spore (by leveling up Shroomish before evolving).

If you don't want to breed, then go with Zangoose or Ninjask and just use another Pokemon with a sleep-inducing move.

Good luck catching Groudon, it sucks that you don't have your Master Balls anymore.
 
o well, I tried the lottery thing fora week and ill try another week.
 
pokemon at high level, very high attack stats, with false swipe, sleep moves, or paralyzing moves will do the job
 
yay i caught him :D! I didnt even have him asleep :D and he had half hp !
 
For kyogre... here is what I do:

-Buy a ton of net balls.
-Bring a pokemon that can paralyze/put to sleep. Regice works well, I think.
-A pokemon that knows thunder is convenient, since kyogre's drizzle makes it 100%accurate. I used Zapdos.
-That's pretty much it.
 
congrats! anyway i think catching legendary pokemon is 50% luck. in a certain situation you may have cut its life to one, put it to sleep, paralayzed it, etc and you may not catch it no matter how many ultra balls. the next time like in your case, you only bring it's life down to half, not put it to sleep and you manage to catch it easily. heck i caught my rayquaza using only three ultra balls and ive heard some catch it on the first throw. sorry if i digress. ;p
 
You could have just cloned your masterball

I dont think he wanted to cheat-.-
I defintly dont wanna cheat.

Anyway,congratz!
Groundon is annoying,im looking forward to fighting him on mine.
Kyogre I caught in 1 POKEBALL lol.

Like everybody said,use a false swiper.You will be amazed at how much help it is.
 
I caugt rayquaza with just one dive ball at full health first turn
Rayquaza used fly may threw a diveball rayquaza was caught.
Groudon rayquaza used dragonclaw (60% left) may threw a greatball almost caught it, may threw a greatball groudon was caught. with kyogre I used shedinja cause Kyogre can't damage it.
 
its rediculus with legendaries seems like weekening does nothing i just throw ultra balls as soon as i see it (full health) and catch after a while
 
congrats, you now have a 70 groudon. like others said, i have tips for kyogre.

=make sure you have many net, dive, and timer balls
=use a pokemon with false swipe and spore like breloom
=on the first turn, send out groudon. it will ruin his thunder and power down his water/ice moves. yes it does power down, i tried it.
=have a pokemon get him down to low yellow, not red unless its at 1. this will make sure he is not enraged. that means red=harder to catch[tried it too]
=start net balling as soon as he sleeps, and timers are good after 40 turns
 
Get a wobbuffet or a pokemon that has good def./hp. and keep him out for as many turns as you can, then throw a timer ball.
 
i caught my groudon but it was a piece of cake........LITERALY!!
the battle just started then i threw a ball for the hell of it and it caught it on full health on the first turn!!!! if u dont belive me then forget you
 
I already got kyogre and groudon. I got groudon after kyogre. lol. Now Im just working on getting regis
 
think of the regis as the same level as the titans. they seem so much harder to catch, at least for me. don't even try messing with their stats, they do that them selves [curse: A/\, D/\, S\/. SUPERPOWER: A\/, D\/]
