+Generation VII re-introduces the Heavy Ball as an obtainable item, and with it, the added (or subtracted) modifier applied to the Pokémon's species catch rate. The formula for the modified catch rate in Generation VII is:
 :<math>a = \Biggl \lfloor \dfrac {(3 \times HP_{max} - 2 \times HP_{current}) \times 4096 \times darkGrass \times rate_{modified} \times bonus_{ball}}{3 \times HP_{max}} \Biggr \rfloor \times bonus_{status} \times passPower</math>
-In {{g|Sun and Moon}} only, if ''rate<sub>modified<sub>'' is negative, it is instead set to zero; this has the side effect of making {{p|Beldum}} and the [[Guardian deities]] impossible to catch in those games. In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} and fall future games, ''rate<sub>modified<sub>'' is instead set to 1, making those Pokémon available for capture again.
+In {{g|Sun and Moon}} only, if ''rate<sub>modified<sub>'' is negative, it is instead set to zero; this has the side effect of making {{p|Beldum}} and the [[Guardian deities]] impossible to catch in a Heavy Ball in these games. In {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}} onward, ''rate<sub>modified<sub>'' is instead set to 1, making those Pokémon available for capture again.
-There is only one pass power: the [[Roto Catch]], which gives a 2× multiplier to capture chance.
+As with Generation VI, the only factor that is different is <math>passPower</math>, only being used by [[Roto Catch]], which is 2 if it is active, or 1 otherwise.
-Otherwise, the capture mechanics are the same as those in Generation VI.
