They will only be in grasses, which means it'll never be in water, caves, trees,
|
|
Ilex Forest, or National Park. The exceptions are Routes 40 and 41. They change
|
|
route when you change route or enter/exit a city, cave, or building. Get on a
|
|
bike and start biking everywhere. Do this on every route you run across. Run
|
|
across all Johto. Check everywhere. Be a free spirit! Every time you enter a new
|
|
city or switch routes, the legendaries move one route, although they
|
|
occasionally will jump a few routes.
|
|
|
|
There are advantages to training up a Scyther. It has False Swipe, which allows
|
|
you to knock a Pokémon's HP down to 1 HP without knocking it out. You can do so
|
|
by having your Elite Four Pokémon doing the fighting and sharing EXP at Mount
|
|
Silver. Train till Scyther is Level 39, then go to Route 42 with the Max Repel.
|
|
|
|
Once you've had your original encounter with a roaming legendary, it becomes
|
|
possible to track where it is. After the initial encounter with a roaming
|
|
legendary Pokémon, they will show up on the map in Pokegear. Flying will reset
|
|
the roaming legendary's location, which is only really good if you are far from
|
|
the roaming legendary.
|
|
|
|
It's better to keep switching between routes. BebeDuckie gives this advice: "You
|
|
go between the same city and route like a few steps left right left right in the
|
|
same spot, and eventually get the roaming Pokémon near you without having to fly
|
|
everywhere."
|
|
|
|
In Johto, it is helpful to fly to Violet City, then stay on a bike and keep
|
|
switching between Routes 35, 36, and 37 so that the legendaries can quick reset
|
|
their locations, as quickly as every 10 seconds. You can get a lot of repeat
|
|
encounters quickly once you've located the legendary Pokémon before and keep
|
|
switching quickly back and forth between the same routes.
|
|
|
|
Save every now and then when you get close to a roaming legendary. If you knock
|
|
it out, you can go back to the save file and try to catch it again. The roaming
|
|
legendaries will all run after one attack or one ball throw. This can be
|
|
frustrating, but go in with the expectation that you'll have to encounter it a
|
|
dozen or more times before you can catch it. The good news is that once you've
|
|
weakened a legendary once, it will remain at that HP the next time you encounter
|
|
it.
|
|
You could consider a Master Ball here, but keep in mind that there are three
|
|
roaming legendaries, so you can only use a Master Ball on one of them. Because
|
|
the catch rate is only about a few percent at low health, even with Ultra Balls,
|
|
this may involve many encounters or even resets. Ultimately, you'll want to
|
|
maximize your chances by throwing many Ultra Balls at it. You'll want to do so
|
|
when it is lower on HP (low yellow or ideally red on the HP meter), and ideally
|
|
when it is asleep or paralyzed although it's hard to get these moves in prior to
|
|
the roaming legendary running off.
|
|
|
|
As long as you are persistent, you will eventually catch each roaming legendary.
|
|
If you knock it out a bunch of times or run out of Ultra Balls, you can go back
|
|
to your save and try again. After you've caught each roaming legendary, remember
|
|
to save!
