You should be able to catch it with just about anything if you low it's HP to 1 with False Swipe and put it to sleep, but if you want to catch something with a low catch rate, your best bet is almost always going to be Timer Balls. Try a Quick Ball on the first turn, as that gives you a catch rate of x5, but if that doesn't work, lower its HP, give it a status, and use Timer Balls.

This is your best bet. If Ultra Balls haven't worked even with low HP and a status condition, Timer Balls will help with this even more due to a 4x catch rate after 10 turns compared to 2x with an Ultra Ball. Additionally, just start out the battle with a Quick Ball for a chance to catch it.
So, use Timer Balls with Ho-Oh having low HP and a Status Condition and you should have no problem.

if I thought my comment was sufficient for an answer I would have answered myself.

I thought it covered the question fairly well so I just quoted it.

bruh .

Also, none of my poke's know things that could cause an unharmful status condition, such as Paralysis or Sleep, although I am teaching Swampert Ice Beam, which has a chance to freeze, but that's not a very affective move to HO-oh

You should probably go catch some Electric type and give it a Focus Sash to get a Thunder Wave off.

The only way to get one is through Battle Resort, and I'm not at that part in the story yet. Mabye a magnemite with sturdy instead?

Any Pokémon with Thunder Wave will do fine.
