Are you trying to figure out how catch combos work in Pokemon Let’s GO but fail? This is one really useful mechanic to take advantage of, if you want to min-max your experience in the game. In this Pokemon Let’s GO guide, we’re taking a look at what we know about catch combos.
First of all, let’s see what the catch combos are. Basically, you can get more rare pokemon, with better shiny chances and with better IV if you manage to catch one species a lot of times without one fleeing. For instance, catching 30 Ratata in a row will increase chances of you finding a better Ratata and so on. Here are a few things that you should know about the catch combo, thanks to PokemonGOHub:
Actions that break the catch combo:
- Catching a different Pokemon species (or a different evolution stage)
- Failing to catch the combo Pokemon and it flees
- Exiting the game (running out of battery, closing it manually, changing Switch users)
Actions that don’t break the catch combo:
- Leaving the area
- Fleeing from a different Pokemon
- Running out of Poke Balls
- Any other in-game action
To continue with out Pokemon Let’s GO Catch Combo guide, we’ll look over the numbers of this mechanic. This includes the rarity multiplier and the max IV combos. Take a look:
Pokemon Let’s GO Catch Combo – Rare Pokemon Spawns
- 0 Catch Combo – 1x Multiplier
- 1 – 5 Catch Combo – 2x Multiplier
- 6 – 10 Catch Combo – 3x Multiplier
- 11 – 20 Catch Combo – 4x Multiplier
- 21 – 30 Catch Combo – 5x Multiplier
- 31+ Catch Combo – 6x Multiplier
However, the multiplier works on different species as well. For instance, you can get a high catch combo with Cubone or Zumbat and then go visit a later area and encounter a Bulbasaur or a Scuirtle. Furthermore, you can use this however you want, in order to complete your Pokedex.
