    What is your personal opinion on Wandering Pokes? Do you chase after them?

    Definitely. I was so proud when I got latias on sapphire without a master ball :)

    I was pretty impressed with myself when I finally caught Raikou, as it marked the second of two dogs to catch. Entei was a challenge; sometimes he'd attack before fleeing, so I couldn't place a Mean Look on him. Caught him eventually. Now I have to catch Latios without knocking it out, which is hard because I don't spend that much time in Kanto.

    I chase them in the post game, before that I usually ignore them and only try for them as they appear randomly.

    I chase after roaming Pokémon, yeah, but I'd not at all mind if they just stopped being in games. I don't think it's cool at all, it doesn't fit for a legendary Pokémon to be running around and fleeing from you all the time.

    I must admit, I'm really bad with catching roaming Pokes. :(

    Im terrible at catching the roaming Pokémon. I usually waited until post game to event attempt to catch the Pokémon. I don't normally chase them down. If I happen to run into them post game, I'll try to capture them :)

    You always seem to run into them when you're least expecting it, and you can almost never find them when you want to. I agree with Slugkid; I wouldn't be heartbroken if they didn't have them in XY.

    I actually caught every single roaming Pokémon. I enjoyed catching them as it gave me a challenge to try catching them. Tornadus I had to trick a lot just to catch.

    I don't really like Wandering Pokémon because it's really hard going back and forth waiting for the Pokémon to be on your Route. To top that off, catching them makes it even harder. But I wouldn't say that I wouldn't want that in future games, because I think it's all right in my opinion. There are some things that I just don't like about it.

    I've caught all of the wandering Pokémon except mespirit, but i find catching them rather easy. I just thunderwave them, then false swipe until they are at one hp, then on the next encounter use a quickball. It takes several encounters to get them but it works

    Man, wondering Pokes are so challenging. :) I normally try to catch them pos game when I have nothing to do, ahaha. I haven't do completed them though since I seem to get frustrated easily. XD There's just an awesome feeling when you imagine how your trainer would be like in real life hunting for a special and rare creature. :)

    Wandering Pokémon can be the biggest pain, especially if you really want it. You become more impatient, and thus whenever you fail, it's more morally deflating. I hate going after them.

    But I still do.

    :s

    I'm horrible with the wandering Pokémon. 8I I've either used master balls or used one of my ghost's Pokémon's Mean Look so I can keep them in the land forever and ever.

    But there's still a wandering Pokémon in Black I haven't gotten to catching... :/

    Oh yes... In Pokémon Soul Silver I spent hours on end chasing Raikou and Entei all over the place. I eventually ended up catching Raikou in a freaking Premier Ball, and Entei in an Ultra Ball.

    I usually chase after them for a while. I hate it when I forget to save before I battle them and accidentily end up making them faint. xD
