>>54189626Note on this: Literally anything is better than most of the apricorn balls in gen 2. In Crystal there's a glitch that causes the retrieved weights of Pokemon whose index numbers are divisible by 64 (Kadabra, Tauros, and Sunflora) to become junk data and are interpreted as massive weights, giving the Heavy Balls the max +40 catch rate modifier. In Gold and Silver they get the correct -20 modifier for these three.
For Fast Balls, they have a 4x catch rate for three specific Pokemon that can flee battle: Magnemite, Grimer, and Tangela. For all other Pokemon they have a 1x catch rate, including the legendary beasts.
