Gen V Catch Rate Calculator

Other catch rate calculators: Gen I, Gen II, Gen III/IV, Gen VI/VII, Gen VIII, Gen IX

This tool will calculate your chances of capturing a Pokémon in the fifth-generation games. If you're curious as to how it works or what a critical capture is, see the fifth-generation capture mechanics page.




Approximation of current HP:



(Adjust this box if the Pokémon has been affected by a move or ability such as Soak, Camouflage or Protean.)




If checked, you will see the results for each possible HP IV if they would yield different results; otherwise, you'll see the overall chance assuming you know nothing about the IV. This is only very meaningful at full or exactly 1 HP, since the approximation of the Pokémon's current HP is not exact.

013 The above sprite has a 1/8192 chance of being shiny. (Modern browsers will give it a yellow glow if so.)
