Guys I just caught Zapdos on the second turn, having used Thunderwave on the first. With a fucking Pokeball.

Do you have similar stories, where something absolutely not supposed to happen, happened?

Brother got a shiny treeko as his starter, was going to reset because he wanted a female one but I convinced him to let me have it if I got the game to the point where it could be traded.

Just started playing pokemon Moon a few days back. Decided to do a mono-type bug run. First grubbin I found was shiny. Realizing how lucky I was I went to the Festival plaza to test my luck, and went to the 1 star lottery shop. Won 1st prize on my first try, and got a Golden Bottlecap.

Are you not aware that the lotto station on its first spin of the game will always give a gold cap?

Congrats on the shiny. I just restarted Moon a couple hours ago and spent so long trying to find a Grubbin on route 1 I just went with the first one I found. I think it's nature hinders sp.attack unfortunately. Is Grubbin worth training?

Ever since then I always throw a pokeball during the first turn of a legendary encounter.

Sun and moon. Synchronize Abra for a kartana. Abra is supposed to die turn 1 so I can switch in false swiper. Toss pokeballs to waste the turn. Caught the kartana. Caught all my ultra beasts and pokeballs as I do every Pokemon. Was pretty nice that it got synchronized and a turn one capture period especially after just finishing xurkitree which took me about 2 hours to synchronize both by far the hardest out of all the ultra Beast for me

I caught a normal Skarmory. When I went to check the pc, it was shiny. The pokemon the trainer sends out and the pokemon that ends up in your party are two differently rolled pokemon.

I actually sr's for Ttar as well. That turned shiny as well

I remember posting in a thread like this a while ago. On one of my early play-throughs of Blue I found Articuno with only my Venusaur still healthy. I remember thinking "fuck it" and saving before entering the battle, where I caught it first turn with a Pokeball. I don't think I've ever saved a game so hard in my life.

Kartana has a really high catch rate though, because you have to catch four of them.

I was doing a White 2 Nuzlocke and encountered Volcarona. I threw a Dusk Ball on the first turn that didn't catch it. On the second, I threw an Ultra Ball and managed to catch it without weakening it at all. Not bad for a 15% catch rate. When I checked the nature, it was Calm, which is one of the four best natures I could have gotten for a Nuzlocke, benching the only stat I didn't need.

>Inflicting a status ailment gives the player a flat additional chance (from 4.6% to 16.6%) to catch the Pokémon regardless of all other factors, making certain Pokémon easier to catch in Generation I than they are in later generations: A sleeping Mewtwo with full HP may, on average, be caught in about six Ultra Balls in Generation I, but from Generation II onwards exactly the same circumstances would require an average of about 64 Ultra Balls— over ten times as many.
Not really

I caught Shadow Lugia in the very first Pokéball, without ever fighting it. It was a regular ball, too.
Same went for Eldes' Shadow Pokémon, but I think that's a bug.

I'm very sure GF lowered the catch rate for both Ray and Deoxys than what they normally would be because the game wants you to catch them. Mega Rayquaza would just wreck your team if you had to waste over 20 balls on it like on any legendary.

Not to burst your bubble, but RBY are incredibly broken.
IIRC there's some unintended side effects where pokeballs are actually more effective than ultra balls with status conditions.

One time in Sapphire, I got to the top of Sky Pillar while dicking about and was able to breach the invisible walls and step out into the 'sky'. Turns out the blue sky texture is actually just loads and loads of tile puddles, and as you're walking in the 'sky' you can see your reflection and leave behind little ripples as you walk.
