Make sure that you save the game before the battle just in case you do not catch him you will be able to turn off and then on your system and just be ready for battle again
- Check your Pokémon and make sure they're in shape for the battle.

Have a Pokémon that knows a status move, which are moves like Hypnosis, Yawn, Thunder Wave, and any other move that can stop or stall Groundon.

Use False Swipe until he has 1 health then use a status move. The False Swiping will leave Groundon with 1 health then the status move will also stop it from attacking and make it easier to catch.

Use a Pokeball over and over till you catch him. Dusk Balls or Ultra Balls are highly recommended.
