Question

Are Quick Balls useful when catching that lake trio?

Within the first five turns of the battle, yes. It'll still be difficult to catch them, though.

Question

How effective would it be to include Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf on my team?

Community Answer

While their initial move sets are not strong, they can become very powerful if you teach them effective moves, thanks to their excellent base stats.

Question

Is it possible to get the lake trio in any other Pokémon game?

Community Answer

Yes, you can encounter the lake trio in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. You will find them in specific mirage spots. Collecting all three of them allows you to then encounter Palkia in Omega Ruby or Dialga in Alpha Sapphire.

Question

How long does it take to catch Mesprit? I was trying for several hours.

Community Answer

Keep trying. It could take what feels like forever. If it takes too long, though, just try to catch it in ORAS.

Question

I'm having trouble using Ultra Balls to catch them. Is there anywhere I can buy more Master Balls to make it easier?

Community Answer

You can't buy Master Balls. There's only ever one Master Ball per game. That said, if you get a GameShark or Action Replay, you can hack your game to give yourself as many Master Balls as you want.

Question

Do I get a second chance if I lose all of my Pokemon or run away?

Community Answer

Before you beat the elite four, yes. However, you will not get a chance after you beat them.

Question

How do I get into the harbor when the door is shut?

Community Answer

That's an event exclusive room that takes you to an event legendary, but you can't get to where it takes you anymore without the void glitch or action replay. The room itself is locked behind the event/action replay.

Question

Is it possible to get a shiny Mesprit?

Wood1935

Community Answer

Yes. After Mesprit flees the cave, track it down and weaken its HP to red. Allow it to escape; then, the next time you encounter it, save your game before initiating the battle.

Question

Will Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf come back if I knock them out?

Community Answer

No, they will not reappear. You are given only one opportunity to catch or battle them, so if you knock them out, they will not return.

Question

How do I catch a shiny Uxie?

Community Answer

You would have to soft reset until you can find one, but the odds are 1/8192 without a shiny charm. And with a shiny charm, it drops down to 1/4096. It's all up to chance.

Question

I am having difficulty catching Uxie, even with its HP at critical levels. Is there a specific order in which I need to catch Uxie, Mesprit, and Azelf?

Community Answer

You should use a Dusk Ball or an Ultra Ball. If the battle lasts for many turns, a Timer Ball can also be very effective.
