What's up with Necrozma's catch rate?

So, I looked up Necrozma’s catch rate, and holy Arceus, it’s more than Xerneas! Is there any reason for this catch rate?

A Pokemon’s base catch rate is an independent factor decided by the code input by the developers. It is as such based on the decisions by the developers, and hence can range from 0-255 based on their discretion. That can be changed based on what they choose as fit depending on other things such as lore or ease of play. It has nothing to do with rarity/legendary status.

That said, I’ll try to justifywhythe developers might have chosen it to have such a huge catch rate:

Now, for explaining the “lore” as to why the base catch rate might be higher (which is what the other answer has tried to cover):

All the reasons:1. It’s weakened, it can’t fight back against the Pokéball.2. It wants to be catched just to take over Solgaleo/Lunala.3. It’s also because the story (developers) want you to catch legendaries in newer generations. And at some hours, Mount Lanakila can have hail in battle, imagine that with a Pokémon that has a hard to catch catchrate.
