So I wanted to know if you can catch legends and mythics after you faint them in game or if they’re gone forever. An example of this is I went into the darkrai fight underprepared and was forced to faint it. Could I get it back or is it lost forever?
For the majority of legends, once you encounter them, it’s your only chance to capture them. Notable exceptions are: Latios up until the final radio tower mission, Heatran/Volcanion at the infernal base (they’ll show up at fiery cavern/cave of steam if you don’t catch one of them at the base), Entei/Raikou/Suicune (continue to appear until they are registered in the pokedex), and Cresselia (same thing as dog trio).
So to answer your question, it is possible, but you won’t have another opportunity to catch Darkrai

Ok, thanks. I’ll just have a friend trade one over for my Dex.
