Munya Posted January 4 Its working as it should be, you were never meant to be able to catch everything in the game 100% of the time Share this post Link to post

That's hardly surprising - it's not often that people complain about something that works in their favor. 5 SneakyTeddi, Munya, Toupi and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post

It has already been mentioned a couple of times around the forum. The changes were a part of bug fix, not a suggestion or any kind of "MMO mechanic". The catching mechanics were not working as intended earlier but now they work more closer as they are in the vanilla games now. 1 SneakyTeddi reacted to this Share this post Link to post
MightyBoxer Posted January 4 (edited) Im not saying if its good or bad.Just want to know what changed. Edited January 4 by MightyBoxer 1 PinkLabel reacted to this Share this post Link to post
SneakyTeddi Posted January 4 Are you talking about this? "Fixed an issue where, in some cases, ball catch formulas would calculate incorrectly for low-end balls This primarily affected cases where status ailments and a large level disparity would allow guaranteed catches, instead of correctly scaling the formula. Other edge cases may have been affected." 1 DemonicDax reacted to this Share this post Link to post
suigin Posted January 4 (edited) The thing with this is that it makes breeding more of a slog again as now you spend twice as much time catching breeders, an already droning activity before the change. Edited January 4 by suigin Share this post Link to post
BoltBlades12 Posted January 5 I did catch calculations and find some pokemon that have 100% catch rate if I already caught them before using repeat ball. Those pokemon break out of repeat balls, even though I've caught them before. That's not supposed to happen. Share this post Link to post

BoltBlades12 Posted January 5 2 hours ago, Toupi said: Dude, are you even reading or just typing? I am. And my point still stands. There are some pokemon(Duskull, Vanillite, etc.) that have a 100% catch chance when you use a repeat ball on them(of course, assuming you've already caught at least one). On many occasions, I've thrown a repeat ball and they've broken out. That is not supposed to happen. If they're rebalancing low-tier balls, like the poke ball, great ball, and ultra ball, then yeah that's one thing. But the high-tier balls, like repeat ball, dusk ball, and quick ball, that's just not the way to go. Share this post Link to post
