G/S/C Catching Suicune

[PoptartsGalore]

I've been playing my silver version for a while now and realised that although i have a suicune, i never caught it. Now my dilemma is i don't remember what i used to catch Raikou and Entei, so i ask you: what is a fasr pokemon that knows a sleep technique by level 40?
i've tried my haunter but he doesn't quite make it.

Use a Fast/Heavy Ball.

I'm surprised your Silver version still stands; most would've had their internal batteries die by now.

don't they not flee until the end of the turn? so if you had a parasect with spore, you could probably get away with it.

i've used several fast/heavy balls but he always run. i got it down to 1hp using my Marowak but now i need something to put it to sleep to give me a few more chances to catch it.

i know that my version is likely to die soon but im going to play the hell out of it until it croaks.

I'll be tossing heavy balls. You can change the battery! And there are compatible models that'll last a solid ten or fifteen years more

i've never had to change the battery, but what kind would i have to get to replace.
also, i got 3 shakes out of a fast ball. when it broke i died a little inside, but i got me a faster haunter now. i gave it the necessary 10 carbos, a quick claw, and now it has 114 speed.
