::Also, FWIW, I kind of want to add that the Trivia section may be the ''last'' place that should have an "incomplete" template anyway. It's called Trivia for a reason. If it were me, the talk page here would have been my first resort.

:::Also, what ABCboy added was, pretty much, "as button input could slightly influence the random number generation in the catch rate formulas". This was his attempt at clarification. The entire trivia point is Greek to me, personally, as a casual player only, but I can see how it would be of interest to the right party. I was also going to comment that we don't put "incomplete" in the trivia section, but all the edit conflicts (I got two) got Tiddlywinks' pointing it out in first.

== 'Status value' in Generation I == | |||
In the Generation 1 algorithm, step four is | |||
: Otherwise, if N minus the '''status value''' is greater than the Pokémon's catch rate, the Pokémon breaks free. | |||
What is the status value? It isn't mentioned anywhere else in the page. | |||
The only thing I saw that I think it could be referring to is the numbers in step three: | |||
: The Pokémon is caught if... | |||
:: It is asleep or frozen and N is less than 25. | |||
:: It is paralyzed, burned, or poisoned and N is less than 12. | |||
If that is the case, step three can definitely be worded better. [[User:Meemo16|Meemo16]] ([[User talk:Meemo16|talk]]) 20:34, 8 March 2016 (UTC) | |||
