Charmander do not appear in the wild, so I do not believe this story. I'd be interested in more details in the event it's a legitimate bug.

I used mine on Reshiram, just in case if I had difficulty catching it.

(I did get the best nature for it on mine though)

I used it on Zekrom in White. I used it against Ghetsis but it was a dud for me. So eventually I boxed it.

In Black/White 2 they give you two masterballs...already used on on reshiram..don't know what to use the other one on lol. I'll probably transfer it to my White version.

And yes I do on the roaming legendaries, but since I just need an admant kyurem, I'm going to be using my munna and master ball and keep soft resetting until I get it in my White version. Then I will transfer it to White 2 to get the Kyurem B combination.

I never use my Master balls, I always like to collect them and use them as bragging rights.

I believe there's such a thread somewhere deep in forums, but who cares anyway?

I did use it, and I think I used it on Zekrom in White. If I did, then it would be because I ran out of other Pokéballs that would work. :pink_tongue: If only I hadn't wasted it...

I used it on Zekrom cause I wanted to jump into the battle with N right away and not spend alot of time catching it. And then it helped me beat Ghetsis.

I made sure to save mine for Tornadus since the roamers are the only really difficult Pokémon to capture in BW. Reshiram/Zekrom have a pretty high catch rate to the extent that they can be caught with a Pokéball or two without being weakened, and the other legendary Pokémon are quite fun to have long battles against since it feels a lot more epic that way. Roaming Pokémon though I just can't be bothered to catch without a Master Ball since the effort of having to continuously encounter them is a pain haha.

I've used it on Tornadus because I've used 1000 Ultra balls and still didn't catch him so I used the Master ball on Tornadus. Oh, and don't waste your Master ball catching Zekrom/Reshiram, I've catched Zekrom with a Quick ball first try.

That's easy, I freaken wasted it on Reshiram! I forever regret it since I could have used it on the rare, awesome Pokemon hidden in hard-to-find places!!

Used it on Zekrom, because I tried to catch the Zekrom with a Pokéball, and after 2 hours, I gave up and threw the masterball. I'm so sorry Zekrom but I needed you. ;A;

I think I used it on Thundurus, although I have an extra one on there JUST IN CASE there's a shiny and I kept my other one. :)

No, in the 4 years I've been playing Pokémon I only used a Master Ball, and was the first game I played.

Yes. On Pokemon White I used it to catch Thundurus, because it had fewer weaknesses than the three musketeers, and on White 2 I caught Virizion to help myself beat Marlon.
