The timerball says, for generations V+, that the catch rate is "1× + 1229 ÷ 4096× (0.3×) per turn passed in the battle, maximum 4×". I feel that this could be worded better such as "min(1+(1229/4096)t);4)× where t is the number of turns passed". The reasoning is because the current formula can be ambiguous to whether 1229/4096 is added, or (1229/4096)*(0.3)× is added.

:It certainly could be worded better (is, now), but it doesn't need to be so technical as to use "min(x,y)". It may be a bit more concise, but (even when I know exactly how the min function works), it's not as easy to understand as just writing out "maximum 4x".
