All [[Poké Ball]]s have difficulty recognizing Ultra Beasts as Pokémon due to their extradimensional origins and thus have a [[catch rate]] modifier of 410/4096× (~0.1×) when used on them, impairing their ability to effectively [[Caught Pokémon|catch]] them, with the [[Master Ball]] being unaffected by this impairment due to its ability to catch any Pokémon without fail, even Ultra Beasts. To circumvent this, the [[Aether Foundation]]'s [[Faba]] had created [[Beast Ball]]s, Poké Balls specifically designed to catch Ultra Beasts, having a catch rate modifier of 5× when used on them, though they have a modifier of 410/4096× on Pokémon that are not Ultra Beasts. | All [[Poké Ball]]s have difficulty recognizing Ultra Beasts as Pokémon due to their extradimensional origins and thus have a [[catch rate]] modifier of 410/4096× (~0.1×) when used on them, impairing their ability to effectively [[Caught Pokémon|catch]] them, with the [[Master Ball]] being unaffected by this impairment due to its ability to catch any Pokémon without fail, even Ultra Beasts.
