(Fix catch rate)
Line 32: Line 32:
When used from the [[Bag]] in a {{pkmn2|wild}} encounter, it attempts to catch the wild Pokémon. If the encounter is a [[fishing]] encounter, it has a 3×{{sup/2|GSC}}{{sup/4|HGSS}}/5×{{sup/7|SMUSUM}}/4×{{sup/8|SwSh}} [[catch rate]] modifier; otherwise, it has a 1× modifier. If used on an [[Ultra Beast]], the catch rate modifier is instead always set to 410/4096× (~0.1×).

In {{g|Scarlet and Violet}}, the Lure Ball was changed to function like the [[Dive Ball]] due to the removal of fishing, and has an increased chance of catching Pokémon on or in water. However, due to a [[glitch]], it will only ever have a 1× catch rate modifier, regardless of the capture conditions.<ref>https://twitter.com/Sibuna_Switch/status/1610341831346393088?t=J8sAmCT-di3yPlUl_VrrbQ&s=19</ref>

The Lure Ball cannot be used in situations in which Poké Balls cannot be used, such as in wild battles with two or more opponents currently present or against a [[Island challenge|trial]] Pokémon. If used in a Trainer battle, the opposing Trainer will bat the ball away, wasting the turn (as well as the ball prior to Generation IV).
