I was fighting giratina, didn't even get it down to 1/2 HP and threw an ultra ball. It caught it first try. After i've exited the distortion world and reached sendoff spring, I threw an ultra ball at a dusclops and caught that first try without lowering any health.

Is this just luck, or is it because I am carrying a master ball? I have no clue in the slightest. Someone please respond?

Just luck. I've done that myself. Nearly ripped my eyes out to clean them to see if my eye sight had gone wrong...but my eyes are fine :)

This was either pure luck or the Pokeball glitch, since you never mentioned a one shake, it was just pure luck.

Its called a critical capture :D
I got one on my Victini the other day :D

It doesnt happen very option, bascially what A critical Capture is, is a masterball effect, One you throw it it instantly captures it, but it is very VERY rare and doesnt happen a lot

Critical Capture wasn't in DPPt, it's started with BW. It's just pure luck.

Yes, we know it's called a Critical Capture, jeez' -.-

It wasn't in DPPT as Bluerang said, which I didn't know, so yes, pure luck.

Wow that's lucky. Unfortunately I'm not lucky when it comes to capturing legendaries/Pokémon :(

Yep, Critical Captures aren't in D/P/Pt, so as everyone said; it's just pure luck.

I caught my Dialga in a Pokeball, after getting the HP down to half.

I have a different glitch. I was catching Victini and I threw an Ultra Ball at it while it was sleeping. It failed. Then Victini woke up and I accidentally threw a Poke Ball and... it was caught! For almost every catch I made after that, I found out the Poke Ball seems to have a higher chance of catching a pokemon then a Ultra Ball.

those are not glitches, that is just pure luck and the Poke Ball thing is all in your head. Those Pokemon have a 0.3% chance of being caught so you still have a chance even with a Poke Ball
