How to Get Raikou - Pokémon BDSP

In the Pokemon Diamond game, you can catch the rare and powerful Raikou in Raman's Park by using the Johto State.

It is a reliable way to make sure the opponent's HP is as low as possible.

An access new status-inflicting move can improve catch rates.

Absol is a good Pokemon to use against Raikou because it is resistant to Raikou's Extrasensory.

Raikou's Discharge is ineffective against Quagsire.

If your Quick ball didn't work on the first turn, use an Ultra ball instead.

If a dozen turns have passed, you can also use the Timer Ball. It will give you a higher chance of catching your Pokémon.
