Better Catch?

Better Catch?

Ok, I have recently been trying to catch Rayquaza, and I DONT want to use my masterball, so I have been trying the steps recommened for catching high level Pokemon (ex. Lower stats, low as possible HP, and status effect) I have gotten it down to as low as the HP goes, lowered all it's stats as low as they go, and even frozen it while having a low HP, but it didn't work. I even waited till it had to use Struggle and I threw Timer Balls at them and they didnt work. So, this is my question...
Is there any button sequence/glitch that will help me catch it?

Press B+Down once the poke ball opens, than press R rappidly to make the catch rating double it's chance. It worked for me.

Heres how I caught mine:

Get 5 timers, a luxury(or normal pokeball), 11 ultras, and a mach bike. Go to right in front of rayguaza and SAVE. Press a and weaken him with a sharpedo, because it hurts him with rough skin. Then if he rests, take out a level 70 and weaken him until his hp is in red.use the pokeball(might work) and then use the 11 ultras and weaken him and use potions and revives, etc.then use the 5 timers. If all this fails, then reset.if it works with one of the poke's, then viola! Congratz! It took me like 4 tries to work. The catch rate is 3, which is EXTREMELY low but it's only for the ultra. With master it has 200(ax).

Hoped I helped :[)

And in the process of the pokeball, do this:
Keep pressing "b" until he is HALFWAY into the ball and wait a second. Then keep pressing "a".

Or, do this:
Throw the pokeball, wait til it's in it.then press "baba" rapidly. Or, hold B until hes in the ball. Hold A for a second then press "baba" rapidly.OR, throw the ball then keep pressing "abab" rapidly. Hope it helps.

Easy use treeko as starter because it learns false swipe (a move that always leaves your opponent with 1 hp)at lvl 59 then use a Pokemon tjat knows sleep powder (not sure what Pokemon knows it you could get a frend 2 trade you a bulbasaur ivysaur or venasaur which learns sleep powder from FR/LG) and you can use anything better than a pokeball thats how I catch legendaries
