The Heavy Ball feels broken in ZA. I'm tossing it at passing out Alpha Skarmory and Aggron and it takes more resets then shit like Pokeballs on a Dragonite.
if it still works the way it always has (only takes species average weight into account), it should be a slam dunk on aggronyou're wasting your time on skarmory, though. it's so light it actually hurts the catch rate
>>58546166>you're wasting your time on skarmory, though. it's so light it actually hurts the catch rateGay, well I saved in Zone 20 with a Alpha one there so I guess I'll spend a hour resetting for it while watching YouTube.
>>58546166>>58546170Checked the calc and fuck, you're right. 0.56 capture chance, fuck this.
>>58546275not to say you will never do it, but yeah expect sr hell for a whilecould be worse, some anons found out the hard way that beldum was actually impossible to heavy ball in og sun and moon
>>58546125What is the best way to manual save before a legendary battle to make sure you don't lose it?What's the fastest way to shut the game off on Switch so it doesn't auto save? Trying to catch legendaries the same way you could back on GBC but this gae has auto save.
>>58546482It doesn't auto save after failed catches and it doesn't despawn Pokemon in front of you so you can save in front of them and reset per throw.
>>58546490Why are people so scared about not having the right pokeball when a Shiny shows up then?Can't you just keep trying infinitely with a regular Pokeball hypothetically?
>>58546518Certain balls are incredibly limited. I won one friend ball and had to reset to catch a shiny Bagon in one.
Level Balls were useless depending of the mon in HGSS>be me, all my mons around Lv41 (perfect to hunt the fat Legendary catdogs properly without OHKO them)>spot a wild Dratini (female), Lv10 (looking a Dragon girl to breed with a male Dratini given as a prize by the Den's elders)>mfw I was too strong, I'd pulverize her even with my weakest moves>remember I've got some Level Balls from Kurt, I have decided to use them (fucking 8x more catch rate with the Level I was in comparison with a weaker wild mon)>3 Balls spent, fag lizard snake refuses to be caught>fry her with a ThunderPunch, move on in the game>go back with a weaker Gyarados (Lv13, found at the Lake of Rage) to help catch her with Dusk/Great Balls insteadI keep my Level Balls only as a souvenir, they are mostly useless for me
>>58546125Low drop from izar btw.
>>58546594https://www.dragonflycave.com/calculators/gen-iii-iv-catch-rateApparently you had a 28% chance per Level Ball to catch that Dratini. If my math is right, you had a 76% chance to catch it in three tries, which in the realm of Pokemon is still uncomfortable odds.
