My absolute highest was back in Emerald with the Regis. I don't know why that game had a vendetta against me, but I remember chucking 60+ Ultra Balls. A fucking Poke Ball is what caught two of them.

I regularly use up 60+balls per Pokemon once I hacked in 900 beast balls and made a vow to catch every single Pokemon in them. Some take hundreds. I don't look forward to catching the tapus in them.

As two others have already said, the Regi's.

No idea why their catch rate is ungodly

I probably threw hundreds of Beast Balls at Necrozma if we're counting multiple attempts, since I only had the one's leftover from the Ultra Beast stuff. I also spent two hours throwing Ultra Balls at Kyurem in White 2 who just kept struggling itself to death.

lol... did you know that Beast balls have a X.1 chance on non ultra beasts? Necrozma isn't an ultra beast and has the lowest catch rate possible like many legends. I'm only attempting it because I got access to 900 beast balls. Shit if I'm trying it with 40 or less.

Mewtwo takes a stupid amount back in the original. I remember Lugia in Gold taking everything I had too.

I tried to catch one of the Regis for my buddy.

Between him and me, we had to have reset 3 dozen times after having used every ball he had.

For me it was Mewtwo in HG/SS. I had used hundreds of pokeballs to catch it.

Ignore when people say that the title length is not important, that a title should just convey what the game is about. They're just jealous theirs isn't as long

Pretty sure I wasted 60+ balls trying to catch an Articuno in the first game. They might've been Pokeballs, though, haha.

I was dumb and thought Necrozma was a UB. I think it struggled to death twice before I realized my error, so probably well above 75.

Yes. When you want to see 5 unevolved Pokemon on the hall of fame, legends can compensate for that.
