3rd Gen Which one of the legendary birds was the hardest to catch?

[Armor Jellybean]

YUP ARTICUNO. THE REST WAS EASY FOR ME.. :)

 

[mikey]

Probably Zapdos or Articuno.
Moltres was easy for me lol.

 

[Shaymin&TorchicKeeper]

Zapdos took me 2 hours to catch. XD

 

[Polizard]

Zapdos is killing my life OMG i have caught the others so easily i have Zapdos running around with one hp and asleep and i keep throwing ultra balls dusk Balls at night and quick balls and it never gets caught

 

[Citrinin]

I found them to be of roughly equal difficulty, but if I had to choose, I'd probably say Zapdos was the hardest. :s

 

[Joey_951]

zapdos its supposed to be the easyest but for me its harder

 

[c3rad]

For me it's probably Moltres.

I tried and tried on my last play through to catch it, and it took me 6 or 7 times.

Zapdos took 2 or 3 I don't remember, I just killed it on accident once.

Articuno is the easiest for me. I caught with my second ultra ball today.

I literally used rock slide with Machamp and then used venusaur to put it to sleep. Two turns later it was mine.

 

[Lockerz]

Well for me Zapdos is very easy to catch. However, I think Articuno is the most challenging one. Moltres is okay not to hard or to easy. Just in between.

 

[Pyrax]

For me, Moltres was the hardest to catch.
It took me almost all of my ultra balls to catch it.

 

[Greeeny]

Zapdos for me, just used up 55 ultra balls on him, Articuno / Moltres only took like 10-20.

 

[Oka]

I'd say moltres was the hardest to catch...

 

[Awesome.]

Moltres was the hardest to catch

 

[Klofkac]

I'd say moltres was the hardest to catch...

Huh?
Moltres: I had only 4 Poké Balls. *
Articuno: 7 Ultra balls
Zapdos: 13 Ultra balls

 

[ScytherX]

same articuno i got so annoyed with him after 50 ultra balls i threw my master balls
Ranking of easiest----
Moltres- easiest
Zapdos- not hard but not easy
Articuno- Dont go there...

 

[Nikorasu]

articuno was alot harder for some reason D:

 

[siavenkat]

I remember when I use to play the game with a passion and regularly, it always annoyed me at how difficult it was to catch Articuno.

 

[Prince_of_Light]

I always had massive difficulty with Moltres for some reason, lol. I never had to catch Articuno or Zapdos because I bought a second (used) Fire Red that had them both on it. XD

 

[Q-Bone]

I just caught Zapdos again yesterday with two Ultra Balls.
I always find Moltres to be the hardest for some reason.

 

[Feminine Cuttlefish]

For some reason I only remember attempting to catch Moltres, but I caught the others, but I just remember Moltres really well.

Me and my Blastoise, Pidgeot, and others climbing that trainer-filled mountain and spamming timer balls on the stunned avian fire creature.

 

[leilukin]

Zapdos for me, because it will use Thunder Wave, and keep spamming Drill Peck on my Pokemon.
