In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald, it is possible for the capture tutorial where Wally catches a {{p|Ralts}} to end with Ralts [[fainting]]. This can only happen if {{p|Zigzagoon}} is generated with 11 Attack, and the wild Ralts has a [[Nature]] that lowers Defense, an [[Individual values|IV]] of 3 or less in HP, and 5 or less in Defense. With all this, Zigzagoon can do a maximum of 10 damage with its first {{m|Tackle}}, and after {{m|Growl}} is used on it, 7 with its second. This makes for a total of 17 damage, just enough to knock out Ralts. However, the game continues on as if it had been caught. The probability of this occurring is <math display="block">{182 \over 800} \times {4 \over 25} \times {4 \over 32} \times {6 \over 32} \times {5 \over 16} \times {7 \over 16} = {611,520 \over 5,242,880,000} = {1911 \over 16,384,000} \approx 0.01\% </math>

===Wally's Shiny Ralts oversight===
In Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald, if Wally encounters a {{pkmn2|Shiny}} {{p|Ralts}} in the catching tutorial, this Ralts will appear as a regular non-Shiny Pokémon in subsequent battles. This happens due to the fact that the battles between the player and Wally are scripted with no way to account for a Shiny Ralts.
