Can Ultra Ball catch legendary Pokémon?

Yes, you absolutely can catch legendary Pokémon with Ultra Balls, but they have a very low base catch rate (around 3%), so it's best used after lowering its health to red and inflicting a status condition like sleep or paralysis, or using them in large numbers (20-35+) for a better chance. Specialized balls like Dusk Balls (at night/caves) or Timer Balls (late in battle) often outperform Ultra Balls, but Ultra Balls are a reliable, general-purpose choice when conditions aren't ideal, notes Quora.

Can I trick Pokémon GO into thinking I'm walking?

Yes, you can trick Pokémon Go into thinking you're walking using methods like GPS spoofing apps (iAnyGo, AnyTo) with virtual joysticks or by shaking your phone in a sock, which plays on GPS/Adventure Sync inaccuracies, but these can violate terms of service; official methods focus on using Adventure Sync for real steps, while non-walking tricks use location manipulation or device shaking for buddy candy and egg hatching.

Has a masterball ever failed?

Yes, Master Balls have failed in specific instances, primarily due to game bugs in Generation 1, plot devices in the anime and manga, or when used on certain scripted non-catchable Pokémon; otherwise, they are designed to bypass catch formulas and succeed in modern games. The biggest game-related failure was a rare bug in Red, Blue, and Yellow versions, allowing a 1 in 65,536 chance of failure, though this was fixed in later games.

Does driving count as walking in Pokemon GO?

Pokemon Go doesn't count normal driving as walking because it has a speed limit for tracking distance (around 10.5-13 km/h or 6-8 mph), but it can count very slow driving (like in heavy traffic or just moving slowly) or be tricked by GPS spoofing apps, though this isn't recommended. The game uses Adventure Sync to track distance when the app is closed, but it's designed to differentiate between walking and fast travel, often showing your avatar running or biking to indicate no distance earned.

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.
