What Is the Easiest Way to Catch Legendary Pokemon in FireRed?

Capturing a Legendary Pokemon is one of the hardest things to do in Pokeman games, including "Pokemon: FireRed." Every Pokemon has a specific probability of being captured successfully. The capture rate is relatively in high for low-level and common Pokemon, but rare Pokemon have a much lower capture rate. The Legendary Pokemon have the lowest capture rates of all. Typically, getting one requires you to weaken a Legendary Pokemon's health until the meter turns red and then to toss dozens of Ultra Balls at it until you get lucky. By using a Master Ball, however, you'll catch a Legendary Pokemeon 100 percent of the time.
