The only move they know is Teleport, which removes them from battle instantly. So if you're lucky enough to see one in the wild, you've got one turn to snag it. You have a few options: If you found the hidden Great Ball when you exited Mt Moon you can throw it straight away and it should catch the Abra first go. Another option is to have a {{bp|Jigglypuff}} or {{bp|Clefairy}} Sing it to sleep if they are faster that it, or use Sleep Powder if you have {{bp|Butterfree}}, which makes it easier to catch and also gives you an opportunity to knock it around a bit while it's dozing. The next is to use Wrap to squeeze it until it's weak enough to catch, while keeping it from Teleporting away. The last option is to use {{bp|Pikachu}}'s Thunder Wave to paralyze it and capture it right away with a Pokéball (though this option isn't very reliable, as Abra would still have a chance to use Teleport right away). | ||
Also, if you are lucky enough to have an Ekans, you can Wrap Abra before he teleports. It will disable his teleport ability and only deal 1-2 damage. You can also interrupt Wrap by either switching Pokémon or throwing a Pokéball. Since Wrap deals very little damage and Ekans can become faster than Abra, I recommend catching an Ekans if possible and using Wrap to hold Abra in place. Once his health is low enough, he will be a steal. | Also, if you are lucky enough to have an Ekans, you can Wrap Abra before he teleports.
