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. | 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.
