Snorlax is a tricky Pokemon generally because of the move Rest. THis sets the stage for it to heal all the damage its taken.
From a long time of experience, you will find there are only so many things that can really work against Snorlax.
SAVE!!!!!
Before anything, SAVE! Just in case something goes wrong, even if its just the battery dying in the DS/GBA/GB. This will ensure you can go back and try again if something goes wrong with capturing the Snorlax.
Step One: Status
There are only Two Status Effects that will actually stick to the Snorlax: Sleep and Freeze. Inducing Sleep or Freeze will give you the best shot at Status staying on Snorlax for a time.
Step Two: Damage
The hardest part of Snorlax rest in its high Defense and HP. It has very low Special Defense and Speed though. Hit it with solid Special Attacks and mix in things.
Step Three: Stock
Heavy Balls, for Pokemon HeartGold SoulSilver will be your best friend. If you can get any Timer Balls, after a long battle, they will be your best friend for handling the Snorlax.
Finally, a new generation of Pokemon for us to enjoy. There is much to look forward to in 2011!
Nice guide man. Hehe saving should be a no-brainer
Snorlax is pretty easy if you're just patient since he keeps regaining his health back. Bring some potions and pokeballs and you should be fine
