When you talk to Azelf and Uxie, they will immediately battle you. But Mesprit won't, unlike the rest.
When you talk to Azelf and Uxie, they will immediately battle you. But Mesprit won't, unlike the rest.
As all 3 are pure {{type2|Psychic}} Pokemon, {{type2|Dark}}, {{type2|Bug}} and {{type2|Ghost}} moves are super effective, while {{type2|Fighting}} moves are not very effective. Bring Pokemon with those moves. All 3 are at Level 50, so be careful -- their attacks can deal a lot of damage.


You can just proceed on without catching them, but why would you reject their "invitation"?

Go to Lake Verity. Surf to the middle of the lake and enter Verity Cavern. Talk to Mesprit and get ready for a battle..... but suddenly a picture of Mesprit pops out, then Mesprit disappears! [[Professor Rowan]] comes in and says that you have tried to do what he asked you to do, but Mesprit doesn't provide you any answer, and Mesprit wants to "play with you." He also tells you that you can track Mesprit down with the Poketch App Marking Map. (He will be surprised if you don't have the Marking Map, and tells you to visit Poketch Company in [[Jubilife City]])

'''Make sure that you have your first Pokemon under Level 50, buy a lot of [[Quick Ball]]s and [[Repel]]s before proceeding to catch Mesprit.'''

Apply the same strategy as the one you used to catch Dialga/Palkia. After your first move, Mesprit will escape unless your Pokemon used {{m|Mean Look}} or other similar moves that prevent escaping. All damages and status ailments will remain on Mesprit even it escapes, though.

When Mesprit is damaged enough (i.e. HP bar is in red), the next time you encounter Mesprit, start throwing Quick Balls without hesitating. Since you only have the first turn as your only chance in an encounter, Quick Balls are your best choice.

Since you only have the first turn as your only chance in an encounter, Quick Balls are your best choice, but they'll not surely capture it -- you may need to waste 10, 20, 30 or even more if you're really unlucky. Be very patient, and you'll ultimately succeed.


Or, if you decide to prevent it from escaping, throw [[Ultra Ball|Ultra Balls]] (or Dusk Balls if playing at night) instead.

You may also consider about using your [[Master Ball]], but there will be another roaming Pokemon for you to catch after you completed the main storyline. You should save this precious ball for that one.

Apply the same strategy as the one you used to catch Dialga/Palkia. As you are inside a cave, [[Dusk Ball|Dusk Balls]] are your best choice. Be patient and you ''will'' succeed... it will take at least ten Dusk Balls.

Azelf is more offensive. Its attacks hurt more, so watch out!

Uxie is more defensive. Its attacks hurt less, but you still need to be careful.

Head east from [[Seven Stars Restaurant]], [[Hotel Grand Lake]]. There was a man that blocked you, but now that the blackout of Sunyshore City is over, you can proceed to {{rt|222|Sinnoh}}.
