Catching Pokémon isn't as easy as it may seem. First, you must encounter a wild Pokémon, and you must have a Poké Ball to throw at it.

Once a wild Pokémon is asleep or paralyzed, you can attack with a weak Pokémon, reducing your opponent's HP by small margins until it's just about ready to faint (or again, use false swipe). | ;2.
