Have you ever caught a legendary with one pokeball?

When I made a perfect IV and Nature Rotom appear in the wild, I tossed a single Premier Ball at him, simply because I never caught a Pokemon inside a Premier Ball before. The Rotom was at level 99, with full HP. And it worked! 8D

...whoops, this is for Legendaries only? D: Well, I once caught Latios with a Great Ball in my Emerald. He had about half HP, though, but still it's something.
 
I caught Suicune with a Great Ball on my first try once. It had a bad nature. After that, I could never catch it on the first turn again. Many hours of sadness were had.
xD
 
In SS I caught Ho-oh with one Pokeball, and it was as soon as the battle had started. Too bad I forgot to save...that was the first and only time that happened. :/
 
I don't know if I've ever caught one in just one ball, but the other day I was trying to catch Articuno in FireRed and I threw 25 Ultra Balls with no luck (minimum HP, asleep). My fourth Poke Ball caught it. I was pissed because I spent like P22,800 on those Ultra Balls but overjoyed because I've never caught a legendary with a Poke Ball before.
 
I never caught a legendary with one pokeball, but I managed to catch a Giratina with a pokeball before.
 
Moltres with an ultra ball in HeartGold.
My friend was with me and he's only caught 1 ledgendary pokemon (palkia), and then was amazed.

In SoulSilver, I caught the Moltres in Mt. Silver with ONE dusk ball.
It was pretty cool.
 
In HG, I found Raikou while training. So I threw an Ultra Ball as a joke. And there I captured Raikou.
 
I ACTUALLY CAUGHT REGISTEEL WITH SINGLE POKEBALL.................
COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
 
Zekrom with a Quick Ball on the first turn. o_0

I also caught Raikou and Zapdos with Great Balls.
 
I caught my tornadus with one quick ball the second time I found him (first time was at the old ladies heal hut)
 
One Quick Ball on Tornadus on Black. I also caught Zekrom in one Luxury Ball on White, which was really nice, because Giratina in Platinum was a total troll.
 
In SoulSilver, I caught Latios in one Quick Ball.
AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
