Time for experiment #2. This one involves a LOT more setup, but: | |||
:* Area: [[Wild Area]], [[Bridge Field]] | |||
:* Target: Lv.60 {{p|Zigzagoon}} (catch rate = 255) | |||
:* Lead Pokemon: any Lv.1 Pokemon (I have the Pokemon Nursery set up with a breeding pair for this purpose) | |||
:* Other party members (in case this is relevant): a Lv.45-50 {{p|Coalossal}} | |||
:* Throwing a Poke Ball on turn 1 until caught (or unless lead Pokemon faints) | |||
And my data as follows (using 100 standard Poke Balls) | |||
: Normal throws (catch/miss ratio) = 42:44 (49%) | |||
: Critical throws = 12:2 (85%) | |||
Which is close to the expected catch rate. Also note a much lower incidence of critical throws this time (1:7 versus 2:5). Hmmm... | |||
(This also gives me a huge supply of Lv.60 Zigzagoons for performing a level-matched experiment later) | |||
