Hi so I got a lv 49 Electrode with soundproof to try and catch raikou, after I encountered him I managed to land thunder wave and he still fled right afterwards?! He didnt use roar, he straight up just fled like a pokemon on safari zone.

Can someone tell me wtf is going on please?

Edit: thanks everyone for all the info and tips, but this is too much work so I'll just use the master ball next time I encounter him haha
