Great website thanks! Currently trying to get Lugia in Soul Silver with ultra balls. Apparently it's going to be a tough one!
Man I love this website. Currently trying to catch a level 4 darkrai with pokeballs bc of it being a randomizer T-T
ty! would love if this had a safari zone capture calculator too
As a shiny hunter, coming to this website is either a complete relief, or the dooming realization that I have majorly screwed up. Anyway thank you for making this!
The very moment I calculated the odds of catching Uxie (~3%) I caught it instantly. Thanks!
marshtomp screaming happily
This website is super useful!
It's helped me loads with completing the pokedex!
This gives me hope
@celestialVulpine: The raw formula and all the math involved are explained on the Gen III/IV capture mechanics page linked near the top of the page!
This is awesome, thank you so much for making this!!
Do you think you could include the raw formula for people to figure out how it works?
I'm a nerd who loves this kinda math and I'd love to use this to learn how the catching formula works & where to plug things in at
this helped me catch a regirock
Thank you for helping me catch Pokémon to catch a Pokémon. Wow.
I try to catch a registeel at level 50 and i only have a great ballz
great! i love it, but i didnt catch it anyways hahah
Thank you so much for this! It’s been such a timesaver.
Bruh, Articuno had a 2.833% chance and it took 401 ultra balls before I gave up and used a master ball.
I had a 99.999% chance of catching him by then
god bless
i threw a pokeball at taillow when it was at exactly 1 hp and it jumped out before the first shake?? omg my luck
calculator says 1.598% catch rate and at least a 95% chance of catching it within 186 balls, but I've reloaded the game at least 500 times with no result. I hate statistics.
It is with immense gratitude that I reflect on the importance of this website in my life. Since I discovered it, it has become an invaluable source of information and resources that have helped me in many areas. The wealth of content available is truly impressive, and with each visit, I feel inspired by the new knowledge I acquire. The interactions with other users are also extremely valuable, as they provide an environment for collaborative learning. In such a dynamic world, where it is easy to feel lost or uninformed, having access to a space that promotes the exchange of ideas and personal growth is a true gift. Therefore, expressing my gratitude for this website is just one way of acknowledging the positive impact it has had on my journey.
