roaming pokemon.

roaming pokemon.

does anybody like this idea? i think it's so annoying you have to find it randomly in the wild, and it flee's every battle, and if you run out of pokeballs or something, you have to find it all over again.

If I'm think about the same thing as you, then your a little late. This idea has been around since G/S/C. I think it adds a real challange to the games. Instead of just walking up to a legendary you have to actually find it.

nah i knew it already, it's just that i think it's so annoying that it's random, and the encounter rate is so loww. i still don't have entei on my gold version --x

Suicuine, Entei n Raikou (sps)

I never liked hunting them down, now bloody Mespirit (needs a good strong Poke with mean look after defeating Elite 4) to get that evil thing!

Only thing I hate about hunting is the fact that in D/P, they have those special "shiny" pokemon thats like 1/600 or something to catch >_>...

And some peopel do take there time to catch them

if it is 1/600 it's easier, it used to be something like 1/2800. Vande, theose are the correct sps.

Actually, it's still 1/8192, but if you use the Pokeradar and get the same one over and over again, it supposedly greatly lowers the odds.

That's just a rumor that has yet to be disproven difinintavly(sp?). It would only help in getting a shiney of a specific species, since you find the same one over and over.

This was quoted from the Pokeradar FAQ on GameFAQs:
Q: If I chain for long enough, am I guaranteed a shiny?
A: No, you're not. The chance of finding a shiny remains at 1/8192, however
the number of encounters increases, so you're just a bit more likely to
find one. You are only guaranteed a shiny if you use an AR, which I am
against.

Note how I said "supposedly." :) I tried it myself, but could never get any chains higher than six, got fed up with the whole thing, gave up, and decided that if I wanted a shiny that bad I'd borrow my brother's AR. :p

For the roaming legendaries, you can just use the map marker in the poketch ;), it shows you where the pokemon is in the overworld so you can find them more easily.
And if you're on the same route bring some max repels and a pokemon a level or so lower than it that knows something that can trap (sleeping move, spider web, mean look) so you'll have an easier time at catching one.

for one you could use a Master Ball, but I'll save that until the OTHER roaming pkm Clis... meh forgot how to spell/say it.... just look for it after you get National Dex....

Otherwise, do it like this

get a strong pkm (like Gastly?, Haunter, Gengar?) and get it to have Mean Look with some other attacks

attempt to battle it at night

use repel when near it

battle

try to go first and use the Mean look

it would try to leave but fail...

then keep on hitting it and trying to slowly kill it (DO NOT RETURN THE GUY WITH MEAN LOOK)

then catch with a Dusk ball or throw differnt kinds of pokeballs at it....

Subaru/Rockman, please remember that english roms are disallowed here. The last time I've read the rules, japanese roms are ok.
