How to Catch Rayquaza, Groudon, and Kyogre in Pokémon Emerald

Step-by-Step Guide

   Step 1: Go to Sky Pillar

   A cutscene should play.
   
   When it's is finished, press A in front of Rayquaza (at the Sky Pillar again), and then go into battle. , Paralysis is also an option, but Sleep lasts longer.
   
   If you have it, attack using False Swipe. , If you're using your Master Ball, you probably need to lower the health to about half, but throwing a Master Ball when Rayquaza's health is red will almost always capture it. ,, He will tell you the route Groudon is on (randomized). , Make sure to bring level 55+ Pokémon, 50+ Ultra Balls, and 1 Master Ball (if you still have one).
   
   Go into battle.
   
   Put Groudon to Sleep, and then use Ultra Balls or a Master Ball. ,, Bring level 55+ Grass Pokémon, because Kyogre is an ice/water type Pokémon.
   
   The same method applies mentioned above: put Kyogre to Sleep, lower it's health to red, and keep throwing Poké balls.
