Mean Look is effective against the Pokemon Mesprit to prevent it from running away. Keep in mind that Mean Look ends when the Pokemon that used it is switched out or faints.
to catch mesprit in pokemon platinum go to its cave(after beating team galatic and catching/defeating girantina)at lake verity use surf and swim to the cave in the middle. talk to mesprit and it will run away and oak will tell you after it and use your marking map to track it down. best strategy to catch it is get a pokemon with a move like mean look or make it go to sleep. also mesprit is level 50 like uxie and azelf
the legendary Pokemon are different levels when you catch them. also in crystal there is a battle tower where when you beat it you can catch suicune without a masterball because you can battle him without him running away.
Instead of flying to the nearest city, which makes it run away, walk or bike to its icon on poketch app Marker Map and look around in the nearest patch of tall grass. Mesprit often runs away, so be careful!
mesprit is a wandering Pokemon, so after it runs away, it goes somewhere out in sinnoh. if you switch locations at certain places, mesprit will eventually get to where you are. do not fly to a nearby location with mesprit, or it will run away to a different place. hope this helps =D
Any kind of pokeball can catch Mersprit, but it is best to use a Pokemon with mean look if you have troubles with it running away.
Mesprit is at Lake Verity but when you talk to it it runs away... You have to use your Marking Map Poketch thing, which is number 13. If you don't catch it straight away it runs and so I was advised to use a Pokemon that has a move that keeps it from running away. I'm still trying to catch it because I don't have a Pokemon with a move that stops it from running away -.- They said something like Golbat would work. To find Mesprit you just have to go to a town like Sandgem or something and keep going in and out until The mark on the map is in your route. Then just try to find the patch of grass that Mesprit is in... Hope I helped!
after you scary her you just chase her down, use mean look so she cant run, get her health down as low as you can without killing her, and then try to catch her
mean look stops any Pokemon from running away.
go to the cave in the middle of the lake near twinleaf town. talk to it and professor rowan will show up. mesprit escapes and will roam around sinnoh. you should have a thing in your watch thingy to track it down. follow it and go to a place where you can catch Pokemon in the area. catch it. try not to fly there because that will raise the chance of running away
To catch Mesprit you need to surf to the middle of lake Verity. There you will find a cavern in which Mesprit lives. After you talk to it, it flys away! When that happens, Professor Rowan talks to you. After he leaves, get out of the cavern and start chasing Mesprit! To chase Mesprit, use your poketch app Marker Map to find Mesprit's icon(it blinks!). Instead of flying to the nearest city, which makes it run away, walk or bike all the way to its icon and look around in the nearest patch of tall grass. it often runs away, so be careful!
Mesprit will always run away the moment you start the fight. My suggestion is to carry a Pokemon that knows Swift or Quick Attack in the head of your party. Little by little health will go down so you can catch it.

It is quite hard. I assume you mean pokemon diamond/pearl. 1. Battle Dialga/Palkia at spear pillar 2. Go to the cavern in Lake Verity 3. Mesprit will run away. Rowan will approach you. 4. Go to Jubilife city to get the pokemon marking app. 5. You will have to chase Mesprit around quite a bit. It will run away whenever you approach it. If it lands in the middle of a city and you go to attack it without it running away, there are two options. 6a. Use a master ball. Throw it. Get it over with. 6b. Use zubat/golbat/crobat's MEAN LOOK to make sure it wont run away. Use a bajillion other balls trying to catch it.
If you've already spoken to Mesprit and it's flown away you need to track it on the Marking Map app on your Poketch. Go to where the flashing black symbol is and try to catch Mesprit when it appears. It's best if you have a really fast Pokemon with Mean Look and Hypnosis or something else that can send Mesprit to sleep. Then keep trying to catch it. Or just use your Master Ball if you don't need it for anything else.
