>>55101762>Are you actually having fun catching legendaries? Not really, thats why I don't bother catching them in every playthrough unless I am actually planning on using them . They are extra content, no one is forcing you to catch them. If you go out of your way to seek them out, its because you want them.
>Do you feel accomplished when you eventually get lucky and the game decides to give it to you? Do you think the game would be even better if the catch rate was even lower so you could waste more of your life mindlessly pressing A? This isn't an expression of skill, why are you so defensive over this antiquated dogshit RNG-fest?If you are mindlessly pressing A, then it is a skill issue. There are plenty of mechanics that make catching easier. Use them.
Rare encounters should be harder to catch. Pokemon has basically two main mechanics, battling and catching, legendaries are the catching final bosses. They should be harder to catch in the same way champions are harder to fight. It makes no sense to give a late game uber's legendary the catchrate of a route 1 bug. It would be the same as walking into the Champion room and having to fight a Youngster with a level 2 Rattata. There should be some barrier to entry to having the best mons in the game so people can't just mindlessly press A and catch God on a pokeball.
