Good AND Bad Luck Moments in Pokemon

[ATrainer]

After 4 resets, I finally caught Lugia with an Ultra Ball in SS. I basically cheered for almost 10 minutes before I continued playing.

Before I captured Lugia, I wasted my Master Ball on Entei. That's why I didn't use it.

[Ravenstorm]

I managed to get a critical capture on a vanillite and then again on Reshiram first ball. Im not sure if catching Reshiram is always a critical capture though lol. As a side note on pokemon ruby i managed to get poke'rus in the wild off of a skarmory i caught, buuuut i was really young at the time and when the nurse at the poke center told me it was a disease i soft reset my game.....lmao the rage i felt years later when i found out what poke'rus was.

Getting Kyurem with a dusk ball in only one try with no critical capture.

[MegaMew2]

My story goes back to Ruby.
I wasted like, 60+ Ultra Balls on Rayquaza...
Only to catch it with the only Poke Ball I had left: an ordinary red and white Poke Ball...

Another story is when I was playing Diamond.
I was facing Giratina...
And I caught it on the first try...
With a Poke Ball...

Yesterday, I got my first critical capture on bouffalant. Later, I breed a max HP IV alakazam with a max special attack elgyem. In less then 15 minutes, I had one with good IVs in everything but speed, including attack. Afterthat, the first bouffalant I breed was relaxed with good IVs in everything but Def, Sp.att, and speed. Since it was relaxed, that made up for the defense.

Another story is when I was playing Diamond.
I was facing Giratina...
And I caught it on the first try...
With a Poke Ball...

...And it was at level 70? It was hard catching it on platinum at level 47!

[Azran Flame]

I caught Giratina with a Great Ball in Platinum, first throw. I forgot to stock up on Ultra Balls :P

[Inchtall]

Wheres the spoiler?

Sorry. He caught it in a Repeat Ball-and never even owned one!

[Orton155]

I was on a hunt to catch thundurus on my white and I found it however to my horror I only had great balls and poke balls. I throw my great ball and wooooosh, whats that? I never heard that before. It was a critical capture! I was thinking, 'well that was lucky'.

[Pseudo-Unlegendary]

All the times I was about to die in game, and the NPC either uses a stat raiser or their move misses.

[7 tyranitars]

catching a shiny gloom with 1 ultra ball (the only one i had)

[alfredo3001]

I crited Cynthia's Lucario and I won.

[Shining Fire]

My little brother has caught all the Unova Legends with a pokeball, no status conditions, and full HP.

When you're on your last Pokemon and have no way of winning, then you start getting critical hits on everything your opponent has left until you've won.

Beating a fronteir leader only because of freezing

[ManiacMike]

When I had Pokemon Emerald I was in a battle with Rayquaza and just for laughs I threw a Pokeball and to my surprise it worked on the first throw. It was a great day.

[Larry]

In the Battle Frontier in Emerald I beat a level 100 Pokemon with my level 44 Fearow.
