I think the very first time I ever used a Master Ball was on Pokemon Yellow in Cerulean Cave. I had no idea Mewtwo was a thing at the time, and just thought the cave lead to some new town or area or something. Eventually I came across a Lickitung, and I knew from playing Red and Blue (which I always stopped playing after the Elite 4 so I never bothered with Cerulean Cave) that Lickitung could only be gotten through trades. I thought it was a super rare encounter, so I chucked the Master Ball at it lol. After that I did end up finding Mewtwo, and just got him down really low and paralyzed and chucked Ultra balls at him until I got it. I think I reset my game at least a few dozen times before I finally managed to get him, since I only had like 10 or 15 Ultra balls on me.

Nowadays I usually use my Master Ball on the "main" legendary of the game, like Ho-Oh or Lugia and stuff like that since I can't be bothered usually to actually battle them and waste time chucking balls at them.

When I played through Pokemon Silver, I knew jack shit. Heck, it took me months to figure out that HM moves like HM Cut can be used outside of battles.

I think if I remember correctly, I caught a Pidgey with the Master Ball. Yep.

The very first master ball I used was on Pokemon XD. that last battle is a fucking nightmare so I just said "fuck this shit, I don't want to start over for the XXX time"
Greevil throws at you:
- Shadow Moltres
- Shadow Zapdos
- Shadow Articuno
- Shadow Tauros
- Shadow Rhydon
- Shadow Exeggutor
and after all those he throws Shadow Lugia. I snagged it with the master ball and the battle lasted 0 turns xdd.

Articuno cause I was a dumbass.

Also I didn't catch Zapdos that run because I was (again) a dumbass and didn't understand the concept of saving to be able to do an encounter again... Because I saved directly after I accidentally KOd him. I was retarded.

My first one was on a Moltres from Pokemon Yellow. What's sad is that I caught Mewtwo with a simple pokeball after freezing it with my Blastoise.

Imagine my mind blown catching the most powerful Pokemon with a single pokeball lol.

I don't think I've ever used a master ball. I only ever use Poke Balls because of the design. I have like 5 master balls now, which I know isn't that much, but they were all obtained by myself without trades. LOL

I'd hardly call it a waste but it was Mewtwo in Blue version. I tried and tried but I couldn't get him cause i'd either kill him. run out of Ultra Balls or he'd kill himself with Struggle.
