    Been having trouble trying to get these 3. Can't figure out how to get close enough to them to throw something or start a battle, and it seems like every time I see them there's little or no grass to make use of. Is there some trick to it I'm missing or am I just dumb?
     
    I see that OP caught them, but I just caught them today myself and found them oddly difficult. Thundurus especially, because it's all on the water (they seriously need to fix that; throwing items from Basculegion just doesn't work properly).

    For anyone still struggling: use Smoke Bombs where possible, they seem to let you get right up to them undetected.
    Then use items like Sticky Globs or Mud Balls to stun them, but be ready to immediately switch to a Pokémon and start a battle. The window of opportunity seems tiny.

    You're best off by saving right before engaging with them; I was knocked out a fair few times and would've lost loads of my items.
