If it seems like some pokémon in Pokémon Go
are a lot harder to catch than others, you’re not crazy. Every pokémon
in the game has a predetermined base difficulty when you try to catch
them.
This video from the Tech Insider YouTube channel highlights some more secrets that folks have learned from Pokémon Go’s
programming. According to the game’s code, pokémon all have different
base capture rates that determine how difficult they are to catch. A
base capture rate means the likelihood a regular PokéBall will catch a
pokémon without any help. Here are some examples:- Magikarp are the easiest to catch, with a 56% base capture rate. Oddish are the second easiest, with a base capture rate of 48%.
- Caterpie, Weedle, Pidgey, and Rattata all have a base capture rate of 40%.
- Venusaur, Blastoise, Charizard, and Dragonite are currently the hardest to catch with a base capture rate of 4%.
