Master Ball in ORAS
 
Who did you guys use your Master Ball on?

I've yet to use my Master Ball. I caught Groudon with an Ultra Ball got lucky and got Rayquaza with a Poke Ball and got extra lucky and caught Deoxys with my first Quick Ball. As well caught one of the dimension Pokemon with an Ultra Ball but I forgot it's name, the psychic one.

Hikamaru March 12th, 2016 5:18 PM

I used it on Mewtwo. Figured I wanted to get it done and use its Mega.

Nah March 12th, 2016 5:33 PM

It was Rayquaza. I wanted to soft-reset for a decent one and sure as shit wasn't gonna try to normally capture it while doing that.

Are you thinking of X & Y, actually?

I ended up using it on Groudon, which was a terrible decision, because I couldn't catch Deoxys for the life of me at the end of the Delta Episode ;; Master Ball would have been perfect in that situation. Thank goodness we're given a second chance after beating the E4 again haha.

Hikamaru March 12th, 2016 5:34 PM

It appears this thread confused me, but in AS I used it on Deoxys. Do watch if discussions get too broad though.

ShinyUmbreon189 March 12th, 2016 5:57 PM

I might not even have to use my Master Ball, tho Ho-Oh might be an option since it's got 20pp and I don't want to risk it killing itself with struggle. Tho I could get lucky again like I did with Deoxys and catch it with a Quick Ball first try. Sorta waiting for a rare Pokemon with a low catch rate or even a legendary that's shiny. Ya never know when you'll absolutely need it.

Jetfire March 12th, 2016 7:10 PM

Ultra Balls on both Groudon and Rayquaza. I was shocked when Deoyxs appeared. Boy was I happy that I had the Master Ball.

TrainerRyuu March 12th, 2016 10:05 PM

Rayquaza's catch rate is 100% on ORAS, even with a Pokeball.

Neil Peart March 13th, 2016 2:52 AM

Groudon, as much as it pains me to say. Everything else has been an Ultra or Timer ball.

mrtheexception March 13th, 2016 6:21 AM

I am the worst at using the Master Ball. I always refuse to use it on anything and end up just keeping it in my bag forever.

I got lucky with Groudon considering he has Rest, I very nearly used it there but kept at the Ultra Balls. Have yet to do Delta Episode so it may end up being used on Deoxys if it gets frustrating enough.

esperance March 13th, 2016 5:41 PM

Still haven't used my Master Ball yet. I've been saving it for whenever I bother to go after Zekrom or some other legendary with a ridiculous find requirement, and even then it's only a last resort for if I can't catch them with something else. There's something nice about just having a Master Ball in my inventory.

PurpleOrange March 14th, 2016 4:36 AM

Still have mine in my bag, never know if a shiny legendary comes up and you need to use it. Plus it gives me a sense of achievement if i make it through the game and catch all the legendaries without using it

(still surprised so many people used their masterball on deoxys, i caught it on my first try with my 12th ultra ball, guess i was lucky)

IsaacTwentySeven March 14th, 2016 6:16 AM

Still holding onto the Master Ball, I've caught most of the legendaries in the game without needing to use it - plan on holding on to it for that rare occasion in which I find a shiny Abra, Graveler, Voltorb, or some Pokemon knowing Memento.

^Pretty much exactly this. Though I haven't obtained my Master Ball in ORAS yet, this is what I always save them for.

Flowerchild March 16th, 2016 5:47 PM

Since it doesn't let you save in between catching Rayquaza and Deoxys, I caught the latter with the Master Ball. Didn't want to run out of Ultra Balls and have to catch both of them a second time.

Iceshadow3317 March 16th, 2016 7:01 PM

Groudon because I didn't want to spend a lot of time on it like in did in Ruby and Sapphire. I was not in anyway expecting to catch a Rayquaza and Deoxys back to back. Otherwise I would have used it on Deoxys. It took like 5 resets of that battle to catch both.

Didn't even know you could catch a Deoxys till it was too late.

Sofnyx March 17th, 2016 12:40 PM

used mine on dexoys when it started spammng recover but i managed to get a shiny Ho-oh with a masterball on GTS and yesterday i won the 1st prize in the Lillycove store and won another masterball

That sounds just like my situation haha. I used my Master Ball on Groudon like, immediately, thinking it'd be hard to catch. If only I had realized Groudon has a really high catch rate and that Deoxys would be level 80 with Recover xD

Mimikyu402 March 18th, 2016 3:47 AM

I always save the master ball for a legendary I wanna SR for good nature

magicalgirlj March 22nd, 2016 7:47 AM

I used mine Deoxys. I had planed to do so in advance

Tinfoil hat March 22nd, 2016 9:57 AM

Used my masterball on kyogre because he kept knocking my pokemon out with that dang origin pulse and i did not plan ahead, i have regretted it ever since. Wish kept it for lugia or better yet deoyxs

Maybelle March 25th, 2016 10:34 AM

Used mine on Deoxys, didn't know I was gonna meet it so I just Went "wtf" and threw the Master.
Funny enough, I got a random master ball while Wonder Trading, got a Wobuffet holding it. So will save it for some rare Shiny that has low PP or a suicide move (Explosion/Perish Song)

Dedenne1 March 25th, 2016 11:49 AM

None because most pokemon were pretty easy to catch except for maybe Deoxys but i caught it with a Great Ball. Im kinda saving it for like that one shiny I might find someday where i cant risk letting it faint or teleport or flee or whatever.

bej4yem March 26th, 2016 3:15 AM

i have a shiny voltorb if you want it

Dreg March 27th, 2016 12:31 PM

I've never used my Masterball yet, but I have 2 now, as I won the Lilycove lottery... matching all 5 digits with a Diggersby.
