Question

Are you able to encounter it again if you catch it and then forget to save?

Community Answer

Yes, as long as the last save was at a point where you could catch Dialga or Palkia.

Tips

Save before battling. If you accidentally faint them or run out of Poké Balls, you can restart the game and try again. You aren't able to save while soaring, though, so save while on the ground.

Have Pokémon with moves that inflict status effects such as Sleep and Paralysis. Status effects will make it easier to catch them.

Stock up on plenty of Ultra Balls. You'll also want to stock up on Dusk Balls if you're playing at night.
