I can't catch Tapu Fini?
#1
Hey guys, I'm kind of new to the deeper mechanics of Pokemon, and I've been having a hell of a time trying to catch Tapu Fini, which is the last Tapu I need. Sadly, I've already used my Master Ball on Necrozma. I guess I'd just like someone to tell me if I'm using some obviously dumb strategy, or if my team is stupid, or if I just haven't tried enough- whatever's keeping me from catching it! I'm new to a lot of this, so I need an explaination that doesn't assume I know much. 

My current team I've been rolling with since the E4 is Incineroar, Snorlax, Primarina, Solgaleo, Alolan Raichu, and Lurantis.
I've been basically used Raichu to paralyze or Prima to sleep and then Snorlax to use Hold Back and then spamming Ultra Balls to catch the other 3 Tapus. My issue with Fini has been that the battles have been going for so long that it's running out of PP and then using Struggle and killing itself. I switched to using Net Balls because I heard they had a better capture rate, but even still I couldn't catch it before it KO'd itself. Aqua Ring just keeps it from being at 1 HP constantly, and makes the fights drag on. I've talked to a few friends and they said they've been doing something similar, and that they managed to catch it. 

I also tried a battle where I tried to do something about it's Aqua Ring from reading a bit about people trying to catch Kyogre. I taught Incineroar Taunt (which is probably a bad move since he's Fire type, I realize, but my other 'mons outside of this team are so low level) and tried to keep it from ever getting to use Aqua Ring before I put it to sleep. I managed to mess up that strategy, let it use Aqua Ring, and then it ended up killing itself eventually. I could just keep restarting the battle and using the brute force method, but I feel like I'm going about this the wrong way. I've fought 3 or 4 extremely long battles now, and I really don't want to keep doing it if I don't have to. The other Tapus were nowhere near as difficult as this one has been. Have I just not thrown enough balls to catch something that's supposed to have a low capture rate? Is there a better team I could be using? 

Any help/suggestions/explanations would be really appreciated!
