Effect
Catch rate ×1.5
Chance of catching
You only throw once a wild is beaten, so the odds come down to its capture rate and the ball. Every throw is a roll, and a miss spends the ball.
| Target | Chance | With a type medal |
|---|---|---|
| Common pocket monster (capture rate 255) | 24.8% | 49.7% |
| Most species (capture rate 45) | 4.4% | 8.8% |
| The toughest you can meet (capture rate 25) | 2.4% | 4.9% |
A shiny is far harder — its chance is cut to a twentieth of these. Catching while you are away is slightly worse, since the idle farm leaves a wild a little healthier. Only the Master Ball ignores all of it.
