Ho-Oh was made available as a reward for everyone after successful completion of the Global Catch Challenge

With this BCR, Ho-Oh now lands in the same difficulty tier as Lugia, which was pretty difficult to catch. So our advice for you guys would be to throw balls intelligently and avoid wasting any of them. Plus using a Golden Razz on every throw is also advisable considering its impact on the Catch Rate.

Here’s a table with different Catch Rate Combinations available.

This shows catch rates for various Berry/Throw combinations effectiveness.

With this catch rates its clear that Ho-Oh won’t go down easily without a fight. So we would advise you to use the Stop and Throw technique to have a greater chance of hitting an Excellent throw. Which has proved to be working well with Ho-Oh by many trainers.
