Are fossils shiny locked ZA?

No, fossils in Pokémon Legends: Z-A are generally not shiny locked, meaning you can hunt for shiny Tyrunt, Amaura, and Aerodactyl; however, the very first fossil you restore for the initial side quest is an exception and is shiny locked, but all others you buy and revive afterward have full odds (1 in 4,096) and can be shiny. The Shiny Charm doesn't affect fossil revivals, so you'll need to repeatedly save, revive fossils, and reset the game (soft-resetting) to get one.

Is Zygarde 10 or 50 better?

Neither Zygarde 10% nor 50% is universally "better"; they excel in different roles: Zygarde 10% is a fast physical attacker, while Zygarde 50% is a bulky mixed attacker/tank, with the Complete Form (100%) being the ultimate powerhouse but harder to achieve in-game, making the choice dependent on your team's needs and battle style in the main games, though in Pokémon GO, the 50% form is generally preferred for raids.

Has a masterball ever failed?

Yes, but only in specific, usually unintended ways: Master Balls are designed to bypass catch mechanics and never fail on wild Pokémon in modern games, but they can fail if used on a trainer's Pokémon, plot-un-catchable Pokémon (like Ghost Marowak in Gen 1), or due to a rare, mostly debunked glitch in Gen 1 (Red/Blue/Yellow), with some anime instances showing failures, according to sources like GameFAQs, Bulbapedia, and Pokemon.com.

Is premier ball better than Poké Ball?

No, a Premier Ball isn't mechanically better than a Poké Ball; they have the exact same catch rate, but Premier Balls offer a sleek, all-white design that many players prefer for catching shinies or legendaries to make them look more prestigious. You get them as a bonus when buying Poké Balls in sets of 10, making them essentially a free, cooler-looking version of the standard ball with no functional advantage.
