Time for everyone’s favorite thing,math!

Here comes a formula. Are you ready?> What is all of this Le Poo Poo?

HPmaxis the Pokemon’s maximum HP.HPcurrentis the Pokemon’s current HP.rateis the Pokemon’s catch rate. Giratina’s is 3.bonusballis catch modifiers on PokeBalls. I get to that later.bonusstatusis a status bonus. Freeze has a value of 2, and 1.5 for paralysis, poison, and burn.

and on red pixel

Since you said “Pixel”, I’m going to assume it has one pixel of HP left in the HP bar. After measurements, we can tell that the HP bar is 48 pixels long on a DS screen. With one pixel, this means Giratina has anywhere from 1 HP to 1/48th of its maximum HP at Level 47(212 with 31 IVs, 198 with 0 IVs.).Essentially, this means Giratina has anywhere from 1 to 5 HP left.(Same from 0-31 IVs)

I’ll save you the math:

Poke Ball/Premiere Ball with 5 HP(Identical):2.95Poke Ball/Premiere Ball with 1 HP:2.99Great Ball with 5 HP:4.43Great Ball with 1 HP:4.48-4.49Ultra Ball with 5 HP:5.90-5.91Ultra Ball with 1 HP:5.97-5.98Dusk Ball with 5 HP:10.32-10.33Dusk Ball with 1 HP:10.46-10.47

For the Poke Ball calculations and first Great Ball calculations, 0 IV calculations wereslightlyless than their 31 IV counterparts. So they will not be included separately.

Poke Ball/Premiere Ball:1Great Ball:1.5Ultra Ball:2Dusk Ball:3.5

But Le Skeeter Johnson!!! How are the catch rates lower than Giratina’s actual catch rate?!

This is due to how the formula is calculated. Here’s a sample equation, withHPmaxbeing “x”,HPcurrentbeing “x” as well since it as at full HP, andratebeing 3:

3(3x - 2x)/3x3(x)/3x3x/3x1

This is how the formula works, and it is Game Freak’s decision to make it this way. This could possibly be a more difficult way to catch Pokemon, but nobody can be sure.

The catch rate for giratina with a pokeball and full hp is 3 or 0.4%. I don’t know about the great ball, ultra ball, and dusk ball at nights catch rate. The premier ball only boosts the catch rate for event Pokemon, and the catch rate is the same as the pokeball if it is not an event, plus I doubt that the giratina is an event Pokemon.hopefully this answers your question, hope I helped!
