>>44683526I mean, any Pokemon with the move Psychic could easily crush a Pokeball yes. I'd make the claim it'd be better to say the Pokemon is incapable of being captured if its not fainted. It will always just deflect or break the ball, the only way to capture them would be to cause them to faint or befriend them and have them willingly join you.
>>44683549That'd be annoying, I'd like more involved capture methods though. Most Pokemon would be too strong to just throw a ball at and capture. This has been shown so many times in the show, like Pikachu's just bouncing balls back with their tails. Imagine something like this
>The wild Machoke Fainted!>Your Pokemon gained experience!>The wild Machoke stands up and looks to you respectfully.>Machoke seems to want to be with you. Do you want to add it to your team?
