Hello again. I was looking over the catch rate page in the hope of fixing some of the numerous errors on it, and I noticed it claims the random number generated to determine whether a capture should be critical is between 0 and 2047, when the analyses I know of say it's between 0 and 255. Some digging through the edit history reveals that edit was also made by you. What is this based on? I notice the page is also missing a division by six in the formula used to calculate the critical capture chance, so if you were simply making an educated guess that seemed roughly in line with your actual experience on the game, that would explain it. But if you've seen that particular number claimed somewhere that's actually analyzed the code, where is that?

That's right. When I wrote that, there was no information in there. I did field researches and caught 100 Pokémon and the chance used to be a perfect 1:8 chance at every time. But if you have founded information that it is 1:6 instead then please correct it. As I said, the article has been blank in this section at that time. --- Pokémon [[User:Pokémon|<sub>Questions?</sub>]] -- 23:31, 10 December 2014 (UTC) | |||
