  • Love how Reshiram and Zekrom had a 100% catch rate and people risked their Master ball on it. D: I used a Poke ball for my Reshiram.

    But anyway I had a spare Master ball from my old save data (traded it across) and used it for Tornadus. Then got another Master ball from the guy who checks how many trades you've had, which I'm gonna use on Kyurem.
    Lulz, I caught reshiram with a pokeball when it had one hp

  • I haven't used my masterball on anything.. yet.
    I thought about using it on Reshiram/Zekrom until I saw how ridiculously easy they were to catch in even a
    pokéball.
    I'm hoping to not use it on any legendary/shiny
    Pokémon that I come across unless it is necessary.

  • In White, I used my Master Ball on Thundurus. I didn't really feel like chasing it.

    In Black, I used my Master Ball on Tornadus. Same reason as in White.

    Nothing yet. The last time I actually used a master ball was in Emerald, and that was because I really wanted Rayquaza. I always catch the legendaries with the good ol' ultra ball.

    On white I used my masterball on Zekrom because I was a noob and didn't realise it would respawn if I killed it. I haven't used my one in Black yet.

    Thundurus, solely so it'd stop annoying me.


    I used my master ball in black on Landorus, he was to hard to catch cause he was level 70. But i was able to catch Kyreum with a Ultra ball and he's level 75.... weird
    Level doesn't affect the chance of capture (save for nest and level balls). Each species has a different capture rate. A level 100 Pikachu would be just as easy to catch as a level 1 one; while a Pikachu of any level (catch rate 190) would be easier to catch than an Absol of any level (catch rate 30). Landorus and Kyurem both share a catch rate of 3, by the way.

    Thundurus because I just couldn't be bothered wasting Pokeballs on it.
    I caught Zekrom in a Luxury Ball, which I traded for a Reshiram Lv.100 with brilliant stats, Kyurem in a Dusk Ball, Cobalion in a Dusk Ball as well and Virizion in the 2nd POKEBALL I threw.

    I still have mine also, I feel like the catch rate in these gen V games were higher than in previous generations because for every legendary, I just threw loads of Ultra Balls.

    As part of a master plan for our Black and White section revamp, I'm afraid this thread must come to an end. If you have any memorable captures or any capturing you've done with your master ball and feel the need to share it with us, please do so in our Unova Travel Journal sticky. Thanks! ;)
