Welcome to the Cave of Dragonflies guestbook.
Thing is, at least according to UPC (one of the "Links" on my affiliate bar) concerning the third generation, the Master Ball just bypasses the formula altogether rather than inputting any particular value as the ball bonus, since after all computing it when it's supposed to be always successful is just kind of wasteful. This could have changed in the fourth generation, but he's playing FR/LG.
One of his comments on the video: "I used 255 as the master ball? rate because I assumed that was the highest it could go."
… hmm.
(As for the Master Ball bit, it's he who input 255 as the ball bonus, but actually my section says to treat it as infinity. In the video he explains that other people say it should be the other way around, but his experience seems to be confirming my take. It could be also be a generational difference in how the formulas are handled, if the people who claim to have had the Master Ball not work are also right. It would have to be looked into.
Oh, haha, I forgot a rounding in the formula used in the calculator. Doing the math by hand shows that the C*B factor becomes rounded back down to 1 for the Great Ball like for the Poké Ball, so it's actually those two that should be identical. I'm going to fix it in a second.
… yeah, he even says in the video that he got it off "Dragonflycave". I'm still interested in wondering if anything's up with the mechanics.
… or rather, this video. Same description, though.
If you look at the description for this YouTube video, you'll find that the user has very obviously used the capture calculator from this site. Any explanations for the bit about the user's experience with a catch-rate-of-one Mewtwo not meshing with the calculator's output?
(Although he probably did the equations for that by hand, since there's obviously no catch-rate-of-one Pokémon that he could have put into the calculator normally. But still.)
OMG I HAZ ANOTHER TANKITTEH
plus i got a pinecone for spammy.
Kanto and Hoenn Starters
This section is incorrect. Instead of saying 'for the first time', it should say 'for the first time since Emerald'.
This is because Professor Birch gives you the choice between one generation's starters (I'm not sure which one)if you finish the Pokedex.
The Shiny Leaf is actually in there in my local copy; I just haven't uploaded it yet.
The Pokéwalker has to be one of those things I lost when I mistakenly overwrote a good chunk of the section, since I'm very sure I remember typing something about it. Huh.
The Berserk Gene was one of those things I noticed while away from the computer and forgot about. There is an item replacing it, but stupidly, I was actually not looking at the screen when I picked it up, so I don't know what it is.
Tall grass is unfortunately not cuttable; I tried it.
Anyway, thanks for the additions. Will be put in when I'm home.
I'm surprised that you didn't mention the Shiny Leaf and the Pokéwalker in that section. I know that New Bark Town now has windmills (I think that's what it's called) in it, but it's a fairly minor detail. As well as the Celadon Bike Store being open. I also noticed the 'Beserek Gene' is no longer found by Mewtwo's Dungeon, though I don't think it's an item anymore. I can't say for sure, since my friend mentioned it, but when you're wearing the Rocket Outfit, appearently, you'll get a response from Whitney.
(I want to check is the tall grass is cuttable, but I keep on forgetting.)
Awesome list! I don't have HG/SS yet, but reading this helped to inspire me to stop being lazy and try to get it… I hope. XD;
