In Platinum I used it on Mesprit.
You see I was able to capture Giratina with a ultra ball so I still got a Master Ball. I was planning to give that to one of my rare Pokemon to trade over GTS for another rare pokemon I don't have. However when I heard about Black and White I intend to transfer all of my Pokemon over. In Platinmum I haven't caught Mespirt and I gave up for trading a Pokemon holding the Master Ball over GTS so I used it on Mespirt (I got easily annoy that it keep running away and I had no high level Pokemon to make it fall alseep).

Mine went to an Articuno. I liked Articuno for some reason.
That said I never had much problem catching the legendary pokemon, iirc I used to have a relatively weak pokemon and pokemon with sleep/paralyze abilities to make it easier...

Saved mine for Mewtwo for Blue.
Used it on Lugia (which I almost spelled as Luigi there) for Gold but when my save corrupted and I started a new game, I found out you could clone your Pokemon with the Change Box cheat and got a few to catch all the difficult ones. However, it broke again and I couldn't keep a save at all so it was not to be...

Articuno back on Red. I was going to save it for Mewtwo, but after I found out it was going to be extremely difficult (especially without sleep, bloody hell!) I couldn't be bothered waiting anymore. Got lost in a dark cave and I thought I would never find him again, also he just looked so awesome, I couldn't help myself.

A Ditto. My brother insisted. Neither of us knew which pokemon was which, but apparently Ditto was rare and amazing. I don't remember having any trouble catching the legendary birds though, and Mewtwo was easy, even though I was using a Venomoth against him. I must have been rampantly overlevelled and very lucky with my ball-tossing.

First time it was Zapdos, then everytime after that I saved it for the Mewtwo.

In Blue and Yellow: Mewtwo
In Gold and Crystal: Ho-oh or Suicune
In Ruby and Sapphire: Groudon and that blue thing I don't remember the name of. Should have used them on Latias and Latios. Those bitches were impossible to catch.

I used mine in ruby on Groudon without realizing there was one of those bastard roaming pokemon to catch. Speaking of which you can count using it on one of the three bastard dogs in silver because you'd have to be sherlock fucking holmes to catch all three of those.
sack having ash or who ever it was in the ruby one, get sherlock holmes in as a pokemon trainer!

In Sapphire, I used it on Kyogre, without knowing that it would be better to use on Latias. After that I have always spared the master ball for a roaming pokemon. And since I had learned my lesson, I told my little brother to not do the same mistake... which he did. Fourtunately, he learned me a method to catch them without a Master ball. It just included 4 wobuffets, 198 timerballs and lots of spare time.

A Tentacule. I didn't know it was anything special so I just used it. Remember, I was around 8 years old and couldn't really read english. So yeah. Wasted. Catching Mewtwo with normal pokeballs was a grind.

I never wasted my master ball, I just used the clone trick to make 255 of them.

And after the second generation, I decided catching pokemon with masterballs is just too cheap. Anything other than a retro pokeball and GTFO.

I wasted it on Groudon in ruby, then had to go and catch fucking rayquaza with damn ultra ball, and god knows how im gonna catch latios, elusive bastard.
I got lucky. I did the same thing, except Rayquaza lasted for just seven ultras, and I had brought over a Latios from my Leaf Green, so one Repeat Ball and Latios fell before me.

Now I have a team of two Rayquazas, two Latias and two Latios. I call it my legendary dragon team, and it rips shit apart.

for some reason i am really lucky when it comes to legendary pokemon most of time. i caught mewtwo with a repeat ball, the three flying legendarys with pokeballs, and still had/have my masterball. i always use the masterball on one of the pokemon that run the second the battle starts and are too fast to put to sleep before that.
