Who did you use your masterball on and why?

[Ashnayr]

I can't decide who I want to use it on. Do you guys have any recommendations?

 

[MightyBewear]

I unfortunately used it against Lunala whichi kind of regret since I got a hard time with tapu koko. haha

 

[vonschbo]

Use on one the four tapus, all of them are hard to catch.

 

[Kieran]

Necrozma.
I didn't want to waste my time on it, and there were no better Pokemon to catch.
The Tapus are easy since you don't need to keep restarting and running through the grasses again should you fail.
Necrozma has the same catch rate as the Tapus but is in my opinion, much stronger than them.

Solgaleo and Lunala don't need to be considered for a Masterball since they have a catch rate of 45 as you absolutely had to capture them to venture further in-game. :)

 

[Hikamaru]

I used mine on Lunala for no reason, but as the others said probably save it for Necrozma since it puts up a harder time than the Tapus. Best not to use yours on Solgaleo/Lunala since they have a catch rate of 45 due to being a required capture.

 

[Denrew]

Depends on what you want. If you are practical, then use it to a legendary with low
capture rate. Just like what most of them mentioned.

As for me, I want my legendary pokémon caught using a masterball which takes a
lot of effort. I collect masterball either by game reset or item trade. Like any other
collectors, I have a unique sense of taste when it comes to my Pokémon collection.

 

[Kitrigar]

I still have mine!
For some reason, no matter how hard something is to catch, I don't ever use Masterballs in any game.
I guess it'll be good to collect for future trades? xD

I've yet to use mine actually. I caught Lunala with an Ultra Ball and the same goes for Tapu Koko. Two of the Ultra Beasts were also caught with Ultra Balls, but I do still have more UBs and Tapus to catch which will most probably get too tedious at one stage resulting in me using it then.

 

[Aura-]

I make it a rule for myself never to use my Masterball. It's been like that since forever.

 

[Darkbirt]

I didn't use my masterball, everything I catch it with ultra balls or great balls (those can be bought in discount).

 

[Cloche]

Lol... it was like 2 Am when I beat the game, and didn't realize I'd have to catch Tapu Koko right away.. I was like "WHYY" and so I threw my masterball and saved once everythign was finished and went to bed.

 

[Palamon]

Still got mine. I may not use it this gen, since I caught all the Tapus already.
Maybe on roamers, if Sun/Moon have any?

 

[Keiran]

In the past I've only used Masterballs on Mewtwo. I chose to use this one on a wild Shiny Ditto because it was running out of PP was going to Struggle to death soon. Using a non-Master Ball was too risky because it kept breaking out, and if it broke out again there was a good chance it would keep summoning more Ditto and I would lose out on it. Good thing I did, though, because it had 5IVs and a good nature. (:

 

[The Evil Mewtwo]

I used mine on Tapu Koko because of the storyline and it uses electric surge to prevent sleep and it is an electric type so it can't be paralyzed. Solgaleo was really easy to catch and I caught my Necromza in an Ultra Ball then.

 

[Gardevoir the Dragon Slayer]

Tapo koko because of the whole can't save before it thing =p

 

[Denrew]

Tapo koko because of the whole can't save before it thing =p

Even if you fainted it by accident, just enter the league again and visit its den. I do
this so I can soft reset and get my desired nature for it.

 

[HardstyleRaver2]

I've used it on a Beldum because it has the same catch rate as a legendary and has only a recoil move.

 

[Pendraflare]

^ That's probably what I will do, if I ever get bold enough to try to SOS chain Beldum I'll save my Master Ball for that, what with me having all the legendaries already.

 

[Jeanster4]

^^ Or you know bring a ghost pokemon so the recoil move does not work.

I used my master ball on necrozma cuz why not. I regret not keepng it cuz Tapu Koko took me a good while to catch it.

 

[Bellsprout]

Lol... it was like 2 Am when I beat the game, and didn't realize I'd have to catch Tapu Koko right away.. I was like "WHYY" and so I threw my masterball and saved once everythign was finished and went to bed.

lol same. i was just waiting for a moment to save and then i was thrown into that battle and had no patience for it
