Caught Zapdos today. Since apparently NOBODY that i own above level 38 can learn thunder-wave (Venusaur could re-learn some status moves, but that's a lot of effort...), my strategy was to throw Rhyperior, whom Zapdos couldn't touch, use Strength to get it down to a sliver, then throw Ground type moves to kill time and use a Timer Ball. Worked on the second try.

It wouldnt have work anyway, zapdos is an electric type and all of them are inmune to paralysis

Well it all worked out then, didn't it?

Grab a few more timer balls and the same strategy should do for the others, if i ever find them <_>

Don't worry, as unless you buy two additional copies of the game, then the only way to get the other legendary birds is through trade.

Articuno is pratically impossible to get through GTS nowadays. Everyone's asking for Pokes that don't exist on X/Y. While Gamefreaks did good in removing those "Zekrom Lvl 9 and below" trades, they added much more annoying ones with the "Find the pokemon you want" option. It was only a matter of time until people started abusing that.

Oh well, come December, the Poke Bank will allow me to bring the 3 articunos from my Black 2 copy .
