Most [[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. However, [[Beast Ball]]s are exceptions as they are specifically designed to catch Ultra Beasts and thus have 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. The [[Master Ball]] is also unaffected by this impairment due to its ability to catch any Pokémon without fail, even Ultra Beasts. | Most [[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.
