Walk Through Grass with Repels

Walk Through Grass with Repels

It is recommended to have your first Pokemon in the party at Lvl. 49 or lower. Use a Max Repel or Super Repel to filter out higher level Pokemon like the Legendary Beast.

The best area to run around grass is the Route 2 grass area south of Pewter City. Run around the grass for 15-20 seconds, then enter and exit Pewter City to change the beast's location. Repeat the process until you encounter Suicune.

How to Use Repel

Battle and Catch Suicune

Suicune will appear at Lvl. 50. Save the game before running around the grass if you want to soft reset for better stats or a Shiny encounter.

The Master Ball is your best choice to guarantee its capture since their appearance is random compared to other legendaries.
