'''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.'''

Now Mesprit roams in [[Sinnoh]]. It can appear on almost every route, and also at the [[Valley Windworks]] and [[Fuego Ironworks]]. When you get to another place, it will teleport to another place too. Two of the best places to "wait" for Mesprit to show up are {{rt|205|Sinnoh}} and Valley Windworks. Run back and forth between the boundary of these two places until you and Mesprit are in the same place. Once Mesprit is in the same place as you, use a [[Repel]], save your game, and set a Pokemon at or under Level 50 as your first Pokemon. Then, go inside the tall grass and run around until Mesprit appears.

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.

Line 23: Line 42:


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.

Comparing to the other 2 Lake guardians, Mesprit is more balanced. Half (i.e. 2) of its moves are offensive, while the remaining half are defensive. Its offensive and defensive stats are also balanced.

Now talk to Azelf. It will actually battle you— right here, right now, no running.

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 and only choice, but they'll not surely capture it -- you may also need to waste 10, 20, 30 or even more if you're really unlucky. Be patient and you will finally succeed.

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

Again, apply the same strategy as the one you used to catch Dialga/Palkia. As you are inside a cave, Dusk Balls are your best and only 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 finally succeed.

Uxie is more defensive. Its attacks hurt less, but you still need to be careful. Its {{m|Yawn}} can make your Pokemon drowsy and fall asleep in the next turn.
