    A slight error in the photoshop, the Ultra ball from whites would be a premier ball.
    And Timer was mislabeled. everything else is correct.

      @SirJoeDoe 4 года назад +72

      @@user-pe1bv9xw7q I mean, Luxary balls look cool and so do the others. It just seems backwards to make them so rare. If you need that much work to get just a single one, then I'm just gonna use another ball. It devalues them for me because you can get them so easily in GSC/HGSS. Specifically in HGSS, I can get loads of Pokemon with those balls and just transfer them over, it's just loads of work for no reason. It just feels like they're padding it out with more grinding, something I hate if it's not fun. With shiny Pokemon it's an exception because they're meant to be rare and elusive, but Apricorn Balls, nah you should be able to buy them in all honesty.

      @zeus anderson How you gonna say balancing decisions made through move distribution are a “QOL” change? That’s balancing dog not QOL changes. The ball rates and Pokémon walk speed would be QOL changes. Balancing is a whole other thing and maybe you only play casual battles but people who play ranked and vgc etc don’t want moves just given to Pokémon because you think they should have it. Certain moves get left out of certain Pokémon’s move pool on purpose. Your two specific examples are also toxic as hell my guy.

      ​@@RevenantZavier I agree, which is why these rare balls are nice to have. They've made shinies soooo easy to get shiny pokemon are not really enough anymore. Im busy masudaing for a 5iv ha bulba in a safari ball at currently. My hunt will probably be over by the end of the day and if i was just after a shiny bulba not caring about ball, ivs or ability then i could get multiple in one session (just chain on lets go).
      These methods are good for beginners and honestly I only started shiny hunting using dex nav method in oras, but now even these shinies i'm breeding in sword seem worthless. I've just started a new game on diamond and i'm going to try get my first full odds shiny on that. To me the rarity of a pokemon is how hard it is to get so a gen 4 shiny bidoof is more valuable than 5iv HA shiny gmax charizard from gen 8 (which only took me like 2 days to breed, and honestly if i already had a competitive shiny gmax charizard from lake of rage raid den then i would be so pissed they introduced max mushrooms in ioa).
