It could be possible. There's always a probability.

Saying that one had caught all legendary pokemon with just one pokeball and one try is easy...But it would be better if one had proven it, isn't it? :sniper:

ive caughten moltres zapdos and articuno in the old versions like yellow, red, blue with normal pokeballs ive only done it once and everytime after that i just didnt have the patience to do it again so i just throw 4-5 ultra balls at barely visible health or the occasional master ball if my pokemon is gonna die

Yeah. I used something like 20 ultraballs on this one legendary pokemon, then switched to pokeballs and caught it with third ball.

i dont think its possibleyou cant even catch a snorlax with a pokeball no matter how weak and afflicted it is.if anyone of these people can video capture themselves catching one of these pokemon they caught with a pokeball then i might believe them

i dont agree, i have played most of the pokemon versions and had caught snorlax and legendaries inlcuding Groundon(twice) , Raycraza(only once, usually with ultra ball) and Kyorge(twice), moltres, etc, pokeball is the only one that work the best,great ball and ultra all mostly break .~tho sometimes, it takes a lot of restarting ..hehe

Nah, not a Pokeball. That's just bordering on crazily impossible. The lowest I've captured a Legendarywith was a Great Ball.

I caught my Palkia with a Timer Ball only a few turns in. But Dialga & Palkia have a 30% Catch rate.

I caught a Dialga with a premier ball, which has the exact same catch rate as a pokeball.Too bad even Steelix has a lower catch rate than Dialga, so it's nothing impressive. :teehee:

I caught my Palkia with a Timer Ball only a few turns in. But Dialga & Palkia have a 30% Catch rate.

Oh, also, it's not a catch rate of 30%, it's a catch rate of 30. The catch rate on a pokemon have a rate anywhere from 3 (Mewtwo) to 255 (pidgey). Obviously, the higher the better, but the number isn't a percentage.I'm basically cutting and pasting from serebii.net, but the catch percentage is based on the formula isCatch = PokeballEffect (((( 4 * Max HP - 2 * HP ) * Catch Rate ) / Max HP ) + Status + 1 ) / 256...I'm rambling, but go to http://serebii.net/games/capture.shtml if you were honestly interested.

serebii is a well of knoledge for everything, but i think the more pokeballs you throw at the thing the higher chance you acually have of getting it. which would explain why it took about 800 pokeballs for me to catch groudon in emerald. all that aside, i think timer balls are the best to catch legendary pokemon, especially if your using an empolean to tank everything they can hit you with. those can be lonnng battles.
