If you're playing Platinum, then yes, Zapdos will flee, but in other Pokemon games, no. Zapdos is generally a stationary legendary Pokemon, so it won't flee after you attack and you can stay in battle as long as necessary.
Yes, unless the particular species of shiny Pokemon prevents fleeing (like Wobbbuffet). However, most players would consider it a wasted opportunity to catch a shiny Pokemon.
It increases speed, so use it when you need to attack first or flee from a Pokemon that's faster or won't let you flee.
When Articuno faints, you lost your only chance to get it. Articuno is a legendary Pokemon, and can only be battled once. If you saved beforehand, you can shut the game off and turn it back on to re-battle it. Otherwise, you can no longer get an Articuno. [blackhole23] Actually from Pokemon Platnium on the way of catching legendary pokemon has changed. If you flee or cause a stationary pokemon (such as the legendary birds in the game) then you can reappear by defeating the Elite Four again. This can be done multiple times as long as you keep defeating the Elite. For roaming Pokemon (such as Entei and Latias), if you defeat them you can go up to the person who first told you of them (Steven for Latias) in the location youfirst talked to them and they'll reappear. Hope this helps. :)
Moltres, Articuno, and Zapdos all will continue to flee when you meet them, I'd consider using quick balls
If you flee from one of the Regis in Pokemon Ruby it will disappear from the game. This is the same for all Legendary Pokemon in all Pokemon games. The Roaming Legendary Pokemon are an exception as they can flee from battle without disappearing.
In the third generation game of Pokemon Emerald, Latios is one of two legendary Pokemon that will flee from the player if found. After defeating the Elite Four, the player speaks to their mother and this action sets Latios flying all over Hoenn. It can then be encountered randomly in tall grass.
I'm pretty sure they do

In Pokemon Sapphire, you can capture Kyogre after encountering it once in the cave where you met Archie. Kyogre will flee to Sootopolis City and arrive in the Cave of Origin, north of Sootopolis City. You will need to trade for Kyogre from Pokemon Sapphire or Emerald to obtain it in Pokemon Ruby. In Pokemon Emerald, Kyogre can be found in Marine Cave when the guy at the Weather Institute announce bad weather in the sea.
In essence, no. Some Legendary/Rare Pokemon are roaming Pokemon, which means they flee and roam the region when spotted. To find them you have to have a special application on your PokeDex called the Marking Map application which will show the locations of all roaming Pokemon. The roaming Pokemon are Raikou, Entei and Suicune in FireRed, LeafGreen, Gold, Silver and Crystal, Latias in Sapphire and Emerald, Latios in Ruby and Emerald, Mesprit and Cresselia in Diamond, Pearl and Platinum, and Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres in Platinum.
only Latios and latias can flee from battles plus the randomly appear making them almost immpossible to catch. they can be caught beforew the elite four
you have to follow raikou and entei around on the map. you have one attack then thay flee. you decrease there health then capture them with your pokeball of choice
The bait in the great marsh makes a Pokemon stay longer. However if you use too much it could startle the Pokemon and make it flee. The mud when used makes a Pokemon easy to capture but has a high chance of making the Pokemon flee.
in safari zone, but you will need a mach bike and maybe some pokeblocks or it will flee very easily.
To find all the Pokemon, you have to remember some things, 1. Roar with a legendary beast near every types of bushes, especially in Canal Ruins. 2. Look out for Pokemon who flee if you come close 3. Search the skies on Latios or Latias 4. Always ride on a legendary beast called with a charged sign, they make all the Pokemon stop moving 5. Consult with a pokedex to find which pokes you do not have, then search their areas in the Internet, then capture them.
Azelf will disappear from the game once you flee from it in Pokémon Diamond. It cannot respawn in Pokémon Diamond since that feature for Legendary Pokémon was not implemented at that point in time.
