The rarity of the Pokémon (i.e. how often it appears in the wild) is totally independent from its catch rate after it is encountered. Even rare Pokémon may have high catch rates, making them relatively easy to catch in battle, such as {{p|Nosepass}} (catch rate 255). | The rarity of the Pokémon (i.e. how often it appears in the wild) is totally independent from its catch rate after it is encountered.
