small issue regarding pokeballs

[OrcaCity]

It would be so funny to see a practically dead Pokemon just lying on the ground on your screen as you throw things at it.

But no, it would be way too easy to catch things, and what would happen if you didn't want to catch it?

hmm... when I restarted my diamond game again and try to capture the legendaries I really couldn't capture them -.-
on my black 2 I captured zekrom with a single quick ball. why is this? are there better odd's in the newer games to catch pokemon?

Zekrom has a catch rate of 45. Dialga and Palkia have catch rates of 30, and most other legendaries have catch rates of 3.

Plot legendaries have become easy to catch.

Though beating Zekrom to a pulp, then reviving him and battling N with it might intimidate him a little :P

Is sleep condition is better than the others for catching pokemon? Or just the same.

It's better than Paralysis, Poison, and Burn, same effectiveness as Freeze.

ok thank you
the lower the catch rate the harder the pokemon is to catch, right?

Essentially.

This. It removes the challenge from the game. KOing a Pokemon is easy, but leaving a Pokemon at low health requires restraint, so it adds challenge to the game.

That's why you can't catch them, it'd be too easy as all you would have to do is knock it out and throw balls at it, it wont be able to fight back.

It's not an issue or anything.

This. If there was no challenge, than completing the regional pokedex would be REALLY easy. That, and shiny Pokemon wouldn't be as valuable. Oh, and the Master Ball would slightly lose it's purpose, due to a Pokemon that cannot quarrel, will most likely stay inside the Poke Ball and get 'caught'.

If you could catch a fainted Pokemon, what would be the point of having different types of Pokeballs? You could just use an ordinary Pokeball to catch a fainted legendary, it would make the game far too easy.
