When do i catch the legendary pokemon in white

Follow our step-by-step guide to finding the game's sweetest characters! Staff Writer. Cobalian Cobalian is tucked away in Mistralton Cave. To get there, go to the stream near Chargestone cave, then use surf and head right up it. Find him on the 3rd floor. Terrakion Also after catching Cobalian, Terrakion is right on Victory road. Once you've finished the road, head back into the cave and look for the intersection you filled with a rock. Turn left and you'll see him. Use surf and waterfall to get there.

Kyurem Giant Chasm Kyurem hides in a tiny, icy cave north of Route When you enter, this area is filled with forestry, but when you come near the lake in the middle, you'll hear a screech and the whole area flash freezes. However, you will know when they are in your area as the whole area will be hit by incredibly heavy rain. Method : After you have all eight badges and head to Route 10, you'll be informed of a weird weather pattern in Route 7.

Head there and continue on until you reach the second house. After being invited into a house, when you leave, you'll get confronted by Tornadus and he'll fly off. From this point, he will start roaming the areas of Unova.

In the mornings, he will appear in the southern routes and in the evenings he'll appear in the northern routes. After being invited into a house, when you leave, you'll get confronted by Thundurus and he'll fly off. This is great if say, Cobalion is caught on the first Timer Ball thrown, whereas Terrakion takes 65 Balls. Ultra Balls can be substituted for Dusk Balls early in the battle if you don't want to wait for night or change the DS clock, as most legendaries in B2W2 are not found in caves or dark areas.

There are six legendaries found in caves, where the Dusk Ball is at its maximum BallRate all the time; for the remaining legendaries, you will have to wait or set the time between For instance, a Virizion in a Nest Ball might be more appealing to a potential trader than one caught in a Timer or Dusk Ball.

However, capturing legendaries will be even more frustrating if you use sub-optimal Balls, so the Balls listed above are your best bet. After you buy the appropriate Balls, you'll want to get a Synchronizer. This way, you can have an increased chance of getting the nature you want, which is something you'll have to decide on your own; which nature to use is a trainer's personal preference.

Refer to the analyses in the Smogon Dex for ideas if you're stuck. All Synchronizers besides Mew, Espeon, and Umbreon have two normal abilities, so you will have to be wary of any Synchronizer you catch in the wild.

The Eeveelutions and the Elgyem line are the only Synchronizers that are normally obtainable during the storyline. Espeon and Umbreon are the first available Synchronizers, although Eevee rarely appears in the Castelia Park. Elgyem is the next available Synchronizer, commonly found at the top of the Celestial Tower.

In the postgame, more options become available. Munna and Musharna are found in the Dreamyard. An Eevee and Ralts with their Hidden Abilities can be obtained through a gift and a trade, respectively, but they must be bred so that their evolutions have a chance of possessing Synchronize. While Watchog does not learn False Swipe, it is the only decent catcher available during the storyline and can learn Super Fang to reduce a legendary's HP with some consistency.

If you are using Parasect or Breloom, make sure that they do not have Effect Spore, as it can give the legendary an unwanted status ailment. The idea is to switch your Synchronizer to the "one under" or if your Synchronizer has been fainted just start off with the "one under" , then have the latter use an attack.

If Endeavor takes the legendary's HP down, you know it is fine to resume trying to capture it. About 30 Super Repels are almost mandatory too these are more cost-effective than Max Repels.

Some Escape Ropes are also great to have for legendaries found at the end of long caves, such as the Regis. The legendaries will reappear in their same locations; however, Cobalion, Virizion, and Terrakion will respawn at level 65, so you may want to respawn them in order to cut down on training time. Now that you have something to reference, get out a piece of paper and a pencil. This will be used to reference the amount of PP the legendaries have before Struggling, which is listed in this section.

PP is not used up while the legendary is asleep. Luckily, only Kyurem has the ability Pressure. That said, you should attempt the lower-leveled legendaries first and work your way up. Cobalion and its fellow Swords of Justice are located out in the open in Black 2 and White 2.

The leader of the quartet can be captured on Route 13 in a clearing before Lacunosa Town. Cobalion is at level 45 when initially encountered, but it will respawn at level Unlike in Black and White, you do not have to capture Cobalion before capturing Virizion and Terrakion.

Cobalion's impressive Defense and Steel typing mean that False Swipe will do next to nothing. If you're trying to capture it during the storyline, it can be a pain if your team is underleveled.

Retaliate is fairly weak, and Helping Hand is useless as Cobalion is fought alone. As stated before, it can be wise to respawn Cobalion to cut down on training time. In addition, it will take longer to Struggle. Ghost-types are immune to Cobalion's only attack, so it can be wise to take one along; Spiritomb is an especially good choice, as it can utilize a Wide Lens-boosted Hypnosis to put Cobalion to sleep.

If you aren't using a Ghost-type, be wary, because Cobalion can boost its Attack and deal hefty damage with Sacred Sword. Virizion is found on Route 11 right before Opelucid City. Like Cobalion, it is at level 45 when initially encountered, but it will respawn at level Sacred Sword can inflict a decent amount of damage depending on your catcher's level and type.

Retaliate is fairly weak, and Helping Hand just gives you a free turn. Log In. Quick Links:. Search the Psydex. Search psypokes. Search WWW. OmegaRuby AlphaSapphire. Black White Black2 White2.
