I've managed to recruit a Keckleon in both the MD1 games, but none of the forth gen ones. It's just so tough because, unlike the first MD games, all of the Keckleon that come to battle you in these games are uber-powerful. However, I keep trying.
I'd like to know how some of you have tried and/or succeeded at recruiting Keckleon, including how long it took you if you succeeded.
I have a new strategy I've been working on, but the Pokemon I plan to use is still in its mid 60s in level so I need it to level up a lot more before it is even eligible to recruit a Keckleon:
I have trained my Palkia for the mission because it is the only Pokemon that can have the IQ skill "Absolute Mover," which lets it move through walls by smashing them in its wake. It has maxed IQ now, and its moves are Spacial Rend, Earth Power, Flamethrower, and Blizzard. I figured that because the Keckleon come in swarms it will be good to use moves that are all-consuming. In addition, I have acquired the Air Blade, Palkia's species item, which makes the power of all its moves multiply by 1.5. Also, when I go in for the battle with Keckleon, I will bring the Blue Silk, Water Dust, Dragon Dust, and Royal Silk items instead of the combined forms of those items. The Blue Silk raises Special attack by 10 and Special Defense by 7; Water Dust boosts Defense by 7 and Special Defense by 7; Royal Silk raises Attack by 10 and Special Attack by 7; and Dragon Dust raises Defense and Special Defense by 7 each; with all four of them working at once, Palkia will gain an extra 17 Special Attack, 10 Attack, 21 Special Defense and 14 Defense. With all that extra power, the boost from the Air Blade, a movepool filled with devastatingly powerful attacks, and of course a supply of Reviver Seeds, this should work.
So, what grand plans have you tried in the past for recruiting Keckleon?
