Boosted Catch Rates
If you use any of the three balls to catch a flying Pokemon, then the catch rate will be boosted. A normal Pokeball has a catch rate of .75, whilea Feather Ball has a catch rate of .5 when not catching a flying Pokemon.If you do use a Feather Ball on a flying Pokemon, thenthe catch rate is increased to 1.25,which is quite a large increase.
Using a Jet Ball against a flying Pokemon willincrease the catch rate to a whopping 2.75, making it the best choice.
How To Catch A Flying Pokemon
As mentioned above, there areeight flying Pokemonthat you can catch, which are listed below.
These flying Pokemon haveflight patterns that you will need to pay attention to.For example, a Hisuian Braviary will not just hover in the same spot. More often than not, the Braviary will fly in a loop that can be tracked.
Before throwing a Feather Ball, watch the way the Pokemon in question flies. The ball will take some time to reach the Pokemon, especially if they are further away. You will want toanticipate the Pokemon’s movement and aim slightly ahead of where they currently are.
When doing this, the ball will fly through the air and hit the Pokemon when they cross its path. Of course, this does not guarantee capture, soit’s important to have other balls ready to throw immediately.
Crobat
Crobat flies high in the Icebound Falls region of the Alabaster Icelands. To reach this peak, you will need to have Sneasler unlocked. With this Pokemon, you can easilyscale the cliff and catch Crobat.
Gyarados
Gyarados can be foundflying near a waterfall.From the higher points in the area, you’re able to see the massive Pokemon floating through the sky.
Hisuian Braviary
Hisuian Braviary can be spotted from theroof of Snowpoint Temple. After visiting the temple, you can climb up to the top and see this local variation of Braviary flying in a loop through the sky.
Honchkrow
Honchkrow can only be caught during the evening, which means that during the day, you won’t find this Pokemon flying in the Cobalt Coastlands. When it is night, simply, head to the location marked on the map, nearBather’s Lagoon.
Magnezone
Magnezone can be found in two spots within the Coronet Highlands.In both locations, the Pokemon flies around the edge of steep cliffs.If you have the Braviary mount, you may teleport to a more northern location and then glide to the two spots on the map. If not, you can also scale the cliffs with Sneasel.
Staraptor
Staraptor also has two locations; one in Obsidian Fieldlands and one in the Cobalt Coastlands.Of the two, the Obsidian Fieldlands location is easier to reach.
From theeastern-facing cliff of Nature’s Pantry,you’re able to see this giant bird flying around.
