: This definitely requires more research -- after playing through the game I never once got any "obvious" impression of the catch rate being different from previous generations. (Of course, I was usually about level-matched with the wild Pokemon in question.) [[Max Raid Battle]] catch rates are (by now) documented on their own page, with the host having a higher catch rate than guests and the base rate being different for Gigantamax forms. --''[[User:Stratelier|Stratelier]]'' 02:06, 23 August 2020 (UTC) | : This definitely requires more research -- after playing through the game I never once got any "obvious" impression of the catch rate being different from previous generations.

: Okay, here is a "quick" experiment: | |||
::* Given: postgame (8 Gym badges & Champion status) | |||
::* Lead Pokemon: a Lv.100 Noctowl | |||
::* Area: [[Galar Route 1]] | |||
::* Target(s): any visible wild Pokemon ({{p|Rookidee}}, {{p|Skwovet}}, {{p|Wooloo}}, {{p|Nickit}}) | |||
:::These Pokemon all have a catch rate = 255 (expected catch probability: 44% per throw) | |||
::* Throwing a standard Poke Ball on turn 1 until caught | |||
: After throwing 100 Poke Balls, my data: | |||
:: Normal throws (catch/miss ratio): 55:7 (88% success) | |||
:: Critical throws: 36:2, or 95% | |||
: This was approximately 2x the expected catch rate. Hmm... | |||
