lol clearly you haven't gotten to the "end". You have to catch like 242 different 'mon to be able to face and catch Arceus.

O jeez.. end meaning beat the story but I'm on level 5 only.. I seem to catch guys constantly but the level barely goes up

Do you have to do each goal or just catch each poke?

I maxed out at level 10 over the weekend. I've got a bunch of pokemon maxed out at level 100, and I now have more than a dozen shiny pokemon.

Did you evolve him? I'm evolving all my shiny pokemon as much as I can, and if I find another one I'll keep it unevolved or only evolved once.

I found two shiny zorua at the same time last night, in a mass outbreak. Evolved one of them to zoroark, left the other as is.

Battle it to weaken it. Then when it isn’t at full strength throw a ball at it

Just keep throwing more balls at it. Use ultra balls or heavy balls

if you can sneak up on them and hit them in the back with a heavy, or better yet gigaton, ball the success rate goes way up

stealth spray and smoke bombs are your friend
