Never, because you're better off hanging yourself.

>it looks dumb
it's one of my favorite balls specifically because of how it looks, the extra effect is just a bonus. like just look at how rad it is.

It has always capped at a 4x modifier. In gens 3-4 it took 30 turns to cap, after that it took 10.

It's good when I'm doing the postgame legendary rush that they keep putting in games, since I don't care what their poke balls are
>>49175489
IIRC it's 11 in gen 3 and 4 in the gens after

Wait. You want me to believe I have caught full hp Groudon in gen 7 after 30 turns? And it was all luck?

No, it caps at 10 turns, at which point it’s slightly better than an Ultra Ball

Every non-scripted capture is through luck, that's literally the basis behind capture rates.

So it caps at 10 in the newer gens but still better than an ultra ball before that.

it's the best ball to catch legendaries in, after 10 turns there's no better ball. All my legendaries are on timer balls. Fuck Balltism

Quick Ball usually gets the job done. If it doesn't just chuck other relevant special balls for the pokemon or ultra balls or weaken/status them for those three turns. Then chuck timer balls. Quick Balls work 9 times out of 10 though.

There are five pokeballs with actual use.

>Quick Ball
For catching shit you don't care about.
>Ultra Ball
For catching shit you don't care about when the Quick Ball fails.
>Master Ball
For catching random shinies that can run/explode.
>Beast Ball
For catching Ultra Beasts.
>Regular Pokeball
For everything that matters.

All other Pokeballs exist for Ball autists and Ball autists alone.
